Hi everyone,
My name is Paco, a 29 years old spanish living in Edinburgh. Last summer my childhood dream was made true. I finally got myself a motorbike. With very very limited riding experience i decided to go for a second hand black tdm900-05. I have been checking Carpe as a visitor, but never dared to post anything. I always check it after a ride out, in case that somebody spot me and mention my bike on tdm spotting section, which would give me a reason to introduce myself. But as i don't ride very often, i think i better introduce myself. I often see a few tdms in Edinburgh (the instructor from 2wheels always shops in the news agents at liberton, where i live; the blue 900 which is parked nearly everyday at the shore; a 850 in Milton Rd east going towards town in the mornings...) I always keep an eye for you guys, but im in my cage most of the times. You might see more of me around here, cos not having a clue about mechanics + my riding skills + the fact that english is not my first language, means that i can struggle even to check the oil level of the bike... (not joking! [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.gif[/img] ) so might scream for help!
Gracias,
Paco.
P.D.: Can anybody give me an alternative to the Yamaha Dealer to service my bike in Edinburgh or near by? A reliable garage, which could stamp the book , but not rip me off...
