Got myself a cruiser again to keep the Tenere company. Now all I have to do is get rid of that eagle on the front mudguard, give it a good clean & then let the tinkering begin! It's a 790cc, 2004 America with only 11k on the clock  [image]http://www.flickr.com/photos/speedmaster58/6897157591/in/photostream[/image]

If you have to ask why I ride, you wouldn't understand the answer!

At last, you have got yourself a proper bike & Jackie won't have to be ashamed to ride with you. (Thank goodness you didn't lumber yourself with another sloowwmaster!!!)

Welcome back to the fold, Martyn! 
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

Tenere? Jeez, I need to pay attention more  I can't think why you're taking the eagle off ... it looks good

Hi Adey, how you doing? yeah, swopped the KTM for the Tenere last year to try & do Mongolia to celebrate my 55th birthday.  Yeah eagle looks crap, also has a cable tied Givvi screen which is coming off & it also has red bullet running lights on the back??? Might stick the eagle on top of an open face helmet, what do you think??

Too bad we couldn't catch up last time I was in your neck o' the woods. I couldn't believe when the satnav plonked me within a couple of miles of your place!

Jeez it only seems like 5 minutes you and Steve were planning your 50th birthday trip. Marrakesh or Morocco or somesuch wasn't it?
