You're so fucking clueless and thick it's unreal. It's actually to trace somebody. Just about everybody here knew that except you.

All I've ever wanted from the UK for all these years is a connection! A connection that could run a trace for me on a National Insurance number. But it's gone on so long I'm literally terrified at what the result may be!

Reestreno have got a couple but they're the earlier ones with 17" wheels. Everybody always says the 500X's are small (and in terms of cc they are) but it was surprising to see how much physically bigger it was than the FZ6. And not much different to the Tracer!

Let em take it anyway! You can't go anywhere on it as it is. But it could take a while with it being an intermittent fault.....like I had with the Picasso!

You ain't missed much! Sitting round in a muddy field in North Wales in Winter surrounded by a load of drunken twats is not exactly the stuff that dreams are made of Clive! The only thing worth seeing up there is Portmeirion!

Shit....that's unheard of!

New bike......that's the difference!

I think it's your responsibility to get it there Ray. And Recovery is included in your insurance anyway.

No.....it's Huesca. In Aragon!

No......i've got good advice! Firstly, get yourself a nice Grua! Then get it back to the dealer and out it! Though I've got to point out that I take no pleasure in seeing a Yam on a Grua! One of mine went on one in 2015!

Stranger than fiction!

If I wanted drama I'd get another GS! And I know your next move.......you'll tell the wife you need another bike cos I said so. And I'll get the fucking blame for it.

Strange ride report cos there's not many pics as we didn't get that far after I met up with @Skippy. The vid tells the story better! I went over the mountains to get to Oria (Almeria province) to meet up with him. He'd come up from the south to avoid the Autovia. It started going belly up when the cafe we were supposed to meet up at was closed (Lazy Dagos) so I had to ride through this particular one horse town to find him. Once I met up with him he was in a right two and eight cos his FZ6 was having a fucking laugh! It wouldn't start! He eventually got it started so we rode down to Tijola to get a coffee! And that restaurant was closed as well. But he did get to see the locomotive...... Here's the slag trying to find a way to half inch it..... Trying to pull away from there wasn't easy cos there was a classic car and bike meet going through. Probably about 50 including an E-Type and a Roller. No idea where they were going though, and we couldn't take the risk of following them off the main roads in case Skippy's bike threw a wobbler again. So we went to a cafe on the main road, which just happened to have a mint 1360 Herald outside owned by elderly Brits. Strangely, they were nothing to do with the Classic Car Meet though. Very nice people......of course the bloody Cockney then stepped in and told them that his mate (probably the snout on his manor) had a Herald back in the day and the engines were shit! There was also a load of young Spanish bikers there.......wearing Power Ranger suits in this weather! They didn't bother with us at all. Didn't even acknowledge us. If they were older guys they would have.....but some of them we saw looked like they were still shitting yellow. After that, I headed left in the direction of Baza.......and Skippy went right to head towards the coast road! It was about an hour and a half trip for me and about 2 hours for him. Seems he got back OK by keeping the bike running.......but now it's back at his house the fucking slag won't start. How many times can Reestreno do him up like a Kipper? It's all come on top for that Cockney you know!

He just messaged me that he's back. Kept it running all the time.....got it back and now it won't start! There could be a Grua in his future you knoW!

I'm back! And as tends to happen when @Skippy meets up with me he had bike problems! Just got to wait and see if he gets home OK.......or whether it's Grua time! I told the dumbass Cockney to get a CB500X a year ago.......but he never listens!

I'm off to meet up with @Skippy in Oria (Almeria),

OK then.....what about @Marcel?

MOTY potential then? While @Six30 doesn't seem to have anything going for him? Surely his Van Action threads must count for something?

And heavy as well! But years ago a leather was an integral part of motorcycling in terms of the look.

Did you show him the Malaga nightclub?

That's a very impressive looking machine though!

I've got one.......about 30 odd years old! Up until about 1998 leather jackets were the only thing I ever wore! But I'll never sell it........cos you can't be a Sad Old Greaser without one!
