No, just someone interested in some airbrushing for his bike.
It's actually a club.....the "GOB" Club
That's our bike in the photo.

Re: Had some business......
Hi, can i pick your brains?, we are bringing our suzuki GSX R 1000 over with us next month, its the TT LTD EDT, so very precious, we also have a private plate on it, so dont want spanish plates. I know from a previous thread that e-bikes insurance covers you abroad and fortunately we are insured with them, but, what happens when the bike needs an MOT? (soz forgot what it called over there) if you havent changed it to spanish registered. Where do we stand legally then??

As soon as you are in Spain 3 months you are a resident of Spain and have to apply for a residencia certificate, then your vehicles will need to be matriculated to Spanish plates, ITV and insurance.
Xtreme is flouting the law and runs the risk of having his friends bike cubed and probably getting himself matriculated by his ex mate.

In fact....here's a recent shot of him dealing with Spanish Bureaucracy!

<<<<<<Spanish BureaucracyAnyway, all you need to do is get it back to the UK for an MOT once a year....so when you bring it out make sure you've got a full ticket.
And only show your passport if you ever get pulled....which you never will on a bike. I've been here two years and all the cops just wave and acknowledge me.
Yes, they are interested in illegal Brit cars on the Costas, but motorcycles are viewed totally differently.
And if anybody can show me a link for a Brit bike getting impounded and crushed by the authorities then I'm all ears. Until you can, all you are able to do is speculate wildly on a hypothetical situation.
Bottom line......make sure your bike is legal in the UK.....and you'll be fine.
