Specs

Add on the weight of panniers, topbox, their contents, maybe a tent and bits and the extra weight won’t make any difference!

Hartnell for me. Wonderfully grumpy.

Who?

I might go for the Missions again. Good enough for what I do - not a lot - and seem to give high mileage. I went to Portugal and back on some and they still looked like new when I sold the bike.

Seems to be a shortage of tyres all over.

It certainly was! I really liked that bike but too tall.

It looks as if BMW have beaten HD in the fuglyness competition.

Got a very apt card from my daughter. We have a similar sense of toilet humour. Some hand made biscuits that are too good to eat!

I preferred the old one - more character! Replacement looks………. Pretty? Good for the wind though.

Ear plugs aren’t too bad.

My apologies for the shite weather. It was ok until I got a bike.

Bloody wide angle. Drive is too narrow.

Already on it. Sounds great but a bit wearing after a while. March ‘23 with 3300 miles on it.

Transalp sold. Didn’t gel with it. The novelty of reving the engine wore off. The seat was uncomfortable. Expensive mistake. A good bike but wasn’t for me. I was bikeless for about twenty seven hours!
