Hi all joined a while ago, but don't really post on here as I use vpcuk.org instead, not a biased thing just started over there and pretty much kept there. But understand you have some good experts here as well. Just thought I'd say hi, from Portsmouth.

Currently own 854 t5, 2 x t5r 855 2 x 850r 855, yes I do seem to be collecting them, if any tuning parts come up please give me a buzz.

Hello and welcome!

Are you the same guy who is buying my BSR zorst on VPC?
It's in hand I have been busy for a few days and will measure the size of the pipe to make sure it will fit!

Cheers Greg

Yeah, welcome.........

Maybe, just maybe if you'd been a little more polite, a little more friendly and not just made your first post to be a short sharp one made up a list of parts you wanted http://forums.t5d5.o...-wanted-a-list/ and then a random request for history http://forums.t5d5.o...vcy-black-850r/

Then you may not have received the mildly sarcastic responses you received.

Not sure it required calling everyone Nazi's though  Posted Image

Posted on t5d5 a few parts I was after for doing the 854, that seems to have been kicked off after a few comments.

So introduced my self to the, shall we say users (can think of other words like Volvo nazi's) and said I don't use the forum often as I mainly post on vpcuk, and if anybody had any bits I could use please email, well bugger me kicked off again.


"Kicked off"?

Where has anyone kicked off on any of your posts?

What he doesn't realise is many people on 'here' are and have been active members over 'there' for considerably longer and we see through this bullshit.

Welcome to the forum Dalhousie2008 stop stirring shit, it is totally unneccesary.
