Hi, I’m George, 46yo and would like to brag my bike.
Originally registered from new in 1988 in Italy, imported and registered in 2006 in Romania, where I’m originally from. I’ve moved in UK in 2014 and managed to import it and registered in UK in 2019.
From 2008 until now I had 17 other bikes, but this GSXR remained my soul mate and never had the intention of selling it.
