Im James, i did my CBT a few weeks ago with John and Robert.
I had been thinking about doing my bike licence for a few years but never really found the time to fit it in, but with the introduction of the new tests next year thought id better do it sooner rather than later! and ill be booking in to do my DAS later this year with any luck, just need to get the theory part out the way first.
Although i had planned on doing it later in the year my hand was kind of forced a few months back when i was put on a team sheet for a friends bike racing team! the things you agree to after a few pints
but at least it was all for charity!. I thought it wasnt the best idea to go out totaly cold so i booked and did my CBT and had a few tries on the race bike before hand and all went well! You can see a pic of our race bike HERE - its more akin to the sort of bike robert mentioned in his intro 
(thats me in the black top on the right hand side)
After i do my DAS im aiming for a GSXR 750, but realistically its not a good starter bike so that will be a few years down the line, im looking for advice on a decent starter bike thats quite forgiving! ive been recommended the Yamaha Fazer 600's?
Anyway thats enough for an intro i think
