Just for fairness i thought i better stick up for speed. Bought a ZZR1200 off them in Feb for a good price and it is excellent, it's never missed a beat, and I had great service from them. It wasnt "sold as seen" mind, I tend to go with what was said before, if they dont like it it must be...

I'm game for the rideout. Guess I better be in one of the slower groups as I havent been back in the old saddle too long and dont want to be holding anyone up

Definitely a bit on the lucky side :D The worst bit was it seemed to take ages to fall over, and i was counting the cost of the damage as it was happening :roll: The Panniers were Brand new and nice and cheap off ebay, I think they just paid for themselves Live and learn tho. It was heavy picking it...

Not at 120mph........not even 12mph..........exactly 0mph Just spent 3 hours trying to get some Shad Panniers and rack to fit alongside a Givi Topbox and rack. After much cursing i finaly managed it. Was parked on my Driveway (uphill) on the centre stand. Tried to take it off centre stand from the s...

Thanks chaps

I'm afraid the communal (sp?) toilets are a big no no for the other half, but otherwise the formula 1 looked ideal

Rather go in a tent myself but that would be even worse for her ......sharing a bog ....and creapy crawlys

Nevermind, i / we will get there in the end

Thanks for those Links, just what i was looking for. I will let the beloved make the decision as Amsterdam was my choice, which i've never been allowed to forget :oops: I think it was the mouse running over the bed that finaly did it. Want to get it just right so she will want to go again. With a bi...

Hi all Me and the beloved are off on our first mini tour to Normandy in July for 4 or 5 days on the bike. There should be 3 bikes and 6 people. Now the beloved has certain requirements........... 1. will definitely not camp 2. will definitely not share a toilet with anyone (maybe me at a push) :D 3....

Wont have a word said against Ewan..... due to the other half having a strange type of fondness for the chap. She was watching the long way down when she mentioned that it might be nice to go round europe on a bike. I pointed out that this would require me actualy getting another bike.....which she ...

Cheers for the welcome

I shall definitely try and make a few rideouts
