You’d be faster even on a Vespa, dude!

Fucking awesome!

No, it’s Portuguese for

Translated, Noah is my dad's name. I'm Peter and my brother John. Biblical stuff!

Nice looking roads! Cool top box, too, nice and square looking. Gone are the days of the little rear seat bag?

Crocks seem to be a plague to all

I don't really fancy tubed tires, but the only real options are either going a bigger and getting a Transalp or a 650 V Strom (with tubeless), or smaller and getting a CR300, or keep the current goldilocks option and stick with not too big nor too small CB500X.

By page 10, this thread’s title is clearly misleading A Honda CB500X would suit you well, Pete! Maybe a green one next?

Greyhound, with Tom Hanks in charge of a war ship during WW2, it’s good. Tetris, about the fight for the rights for Tetris, it blew me away what an adventure it was.

No we don’t The all blacks are gorgeous, when they’re shiny in showrooms, then you get them dusty …

That’s what has put me off gold wheels. I like them on old Hondas but on a GS’s cast wheels it just feels wrong.

Agreed, it’s a cool bike! Did you let him know that the Honda sticker on his helmet makes him look like a twat? Friends don’t let friends look like twats!

I don’t like the gold wheels or the paint, but that is a cool bike. Had never noticed the one sided swing arm.

The black is the skins which were face down into the coal, aren’t mandatory eating if you’re a delicate southern flower. If you’re a man and respect the ocean and where your food comes from you’ll find it’s the best part.

Magic happened. It’s coal roasted codfish, which when done get their bones pulled and into the pot with olive oil and garlic they go. Put the clay pot on the heat and leave to bubble away until it smells like magic, and serve with boiled potatoes and the optional raw onion slices. I love it, might be my favourite typical Portuguese thing. It’s hot, so having a nice glass of cold wine is mandatory. So delicious that even my dad who nowadays doesn’t like food much finished his plate.

Othing wrong with moss, it’s better than grass, doesn’t shelter ticks and doesn’t need cutting down. It’s nature! Put a couple of logs on the ground to feed bugs and a few bird houses on stakes, and it’s a natural garden on purpose.

Magic is happening as I post this

When I bought my Transalp, a long time ago. My dealership had some issues with some of the 125cc coming from Italy. Usually missing stickers, but this one time a bike wouldn’t start before the client came to pick it up. Engine was spinning like mad though. Bike simply came fully assembled but no piston and connecting rod

So it’s not the Boris Johnson, but a boris johnson.

That’s me!
