Two out of three ain't bad.

Everyone has called you a twat, you and @Swagman and @Richzx6r,it's a bandwagon people jump on. Sorry!

You'll drink that on your birthday?

I haven´t met him, no. But I have faith in humanity. You travel a little and your horizons broaden, and you believe the best in people...

I think it might, he might come across as someone with an exotic past

After a nice woven cooked seabass and a chilled bottle of nice upper Douro white wine. My conclusion is that you are both neanderthals. Is this a drinkypoo? I better hope not! @Bruce has an opinion on drinkypoos

That's a sorry part of the country you live in, you guys over there would be terrified someone with a sense of enjoying the good things in life would show up... all the women would realize they are living a lie

It's these first days of longer light, I think the light is always very cool if you have a clear sky

A chinese bike on the banner might be too much, though.

Love the blue MV Is the red and grey bike a Bultaco? Really pretty! Ugly chain cover though, but gotta keep those dress pants clean

You lot are showing your righteousness, it's showing a "for sale" add of a dude that is posting a picture of the bike being sold showing it's absolute max speed instead of lying and saying it was pampered. It's funny!

That has lightened a flame, as soon as I'm back home I'll take the XR out

I meant between something like 240 and 300. Sometimes, I do play a little with the GS going "fast", and would enjoy a proper fast bike for those night motorway rides when I imagine there are no cops around. But it's one thing to max out a bike that goes a little over 200, and another to hold onto something that is 50% faster.

I think that over a certain speed it just becomes a theoretical exercise, the end result is more or less the same?

No, I´ll do two things, which is take off the GS's center stand, to have it freshly powder coated, and clean under the seat and inside the eco box. That's a weekend

I will be doing nothing, which is starting to hurt me no end.

He's probably got a little piece of black tape over the plate I love that those two pictures are being used to sell the bike, when usually it's "never ridden hard" and "previous owner was an older gentleman"

That is on the local motorway going past Porto and V.N.Gaia, when I say that this motorway sounds like a GP on weekends that is why

I for one, like to gather with a few friends, but dislike organized groups.

I think the brits have a very particular way of hanging out in groups, not more or less but quite different to other european nationalities that I know of. I don't think it's anything to do with having wide open spaces or not, it's just a different group mentality. This opinion is not particularly restricted to motorcycles, but car enthusiasts, football fans, music band fans, etc, the group's enjoyment of being part of a group seems to be different over there.

@XTreme, the little man needs a member account here. Set him up!

Pete's grandson understands the importance of brakes, look at the tip of his left boot.

That's just mean. I do my best to present you island types with a view of what other places are like and this is what I get; @XTreme's throwing up gifs, and now a true world traveller's snarky jokes...
