Just try to imagine Buck going down the road on a cb 500...how goofy would that look?

Well I can remember when he was riding round Gillingham on a Suzuki GS250.......so you better ask him how goofy he looked!

I don't know what bikes you had or when you had them.

But if you had standard road bikes (not trail) then they were much smaller overall.

Still obsessing over bikes seat heights just like a shorty would.

Brill. Quite a big crowd there, what group are you with?

Expand  

It's an internet based group , ABC, or Adventure Bunkhouse Group.  They come from all over the country and we even have three in France and one in Africa.

There was one new face this weekend and twenty old ones. This was our first proper bunkhouse meet since covid, it was really great to see everyone again without any restrictions.  We did a couple of camping meets inbetween lockdowns but this was a great new venue.

Your mates CB looks like a toy next to your GS.  Mind you I was next to a Keeway ADV type 125 today and that was taller than my CB.  I like the fact the CB feels like a 125 with a normal size engine in it.

My GS is a bit taller than a normal one, too, enough that when on the center stand the rear wheel doesn't lift off the floor. I will get a picture of it next to one next time I can.

My mate is also shorter, he's built like a MotoGP racer, and fits that bike like Honda intended.

The X model is physically bigger than the standard though.
