Well after work today it was a glorious day so me and one of the other guys decided to go for a run, probably ended up doing nearly 200miles, used a whole tank of fuel, and plenty of throttle.
we went from Aberdeen ,through the country over past the Lecht ski centre and over that road,turned at the end and came back!
My bike is the red/white/black Honda cbr600rr and the other bike is Kawasaki ZX750
anyone that has been on these roads will understand what its like!!
beautiful views too (must ve slowed down for a moment,frpm concentrating on the road)

Heres 2 more.......
Unfortunatly i have my massive LEGAL plate on, as i got stopped by the traffic police the other day and they made me change my  illegal plate...... the passenger copper is a biker, says he has a bit of lee-way with small plates, but mine was the smallest he had ever seen...... the lettering on bike plates is suppose to be 67mm, mine is 23mm ..............

No , wiz fekin cold though, wiz chilly up in the hills!!! the seating position on the cbr is a lot better in my opinion than the other 600s in its class, the bars dont drop down at the ends so much!
will hopefully be out again tomorow with a few mates

Whats the crack with when you get caught with the small plates? I thought they were giving out points for them at one point

I think its upto the discretion (sp) of the officer who pulls you over.

well to start with he was gping to take the plate off me there and then and make me get the bike trailered home, then he said its going to be a £60 fine, so i then went into the back of the T5, they were filling out forms and asking me questions, d.o.b,job,etc etc. then the passenger(who is a biker) turned round and said, "you seem like a decent lad so how about i just give you a 21 day ticket."
"sounds good to me "

yeah, had to take the ticket into a mot station and get them to stamp it to prove it was changed.
i didnt know a bike plate has to be square, so going for a 6x4 one now
