How long have you had your bike?

One year in summer

Why and how did you acquire it?

Why? Come on, VFR400 is the best motorbike ever! I got it from Bikes Direct so second hand purchase (grey import from Japan, soooo sweet)

What is the bike like to ride?

Having a small engine you need to use plenty of revs. It is a sports bike so there is lots of weight on your wrists but the pay off is high degree of control. You hug the bike rather than sit on the top of it.

What would be your dream bike?

GSX R 750, year of production 2007, apparently the best bike in the world.

What bikes have you ridden in the past?

Honda CG125 and CB500

When did you take your test and what was the experience like?

February 28 2007, it was great fun ?

What's the funniest or quirky thing that's happened to you when riding a bike?

So many of them – how can I choose? Maybe the 'perfect' emergency stop at my final test ?

What could be done to improve the conditions for motorcyclists in this country?

More lanes for bikes and motorbikes (a lane on highway just for bikes would be appreciated), better roads, lower taxes, cheaper petrol…

Make car drives use their side and back mirrors! Make them ride motorbike before they sit behind the wheel in driving school. That is about it.
