Thanks DR Girl - Hopefully will pave the way to full recovery and back to some riding - the 530 is getting itchy feet being parked up 1st bike I've owned and never ridden.....yet

Jeez Mate, Those doctors are a bit slack, They should have picked up that you are in the advanced stages of PMS. (Parked Motorcycle Syndrome)

Well Marty..almost 500 K's on the 530 on Saturday! You need the Seat Concepts seat! Without it would not have been fun..although I did stand-up for lots of the ride.

Get well Soon!

nice work. Bloke on a GS dropped by on his way home from the ride, so heard all about it. Glad to hear the fuel range on that 530 didn't let ya down....300+ K's on the tank? about perfect for me

Found this lying around on U-tube....HB lads out on the Tarndale Slip

meanwhile...the 530 is almost finished. Seat concepts went on today, only a couple minor things left and its ready to test ride.

' That seat looks real good ' . . . . said in my best Mississippi accent

Hey ~ my seat doesn't have that nice ORANGE thread running through it!

I got ripped off

[R650R]

Did you guys ride up the 'big river crossing' instead of the road. That bit is actually the debri from the slip and leads to it.
You wouldn't have parked in the middle of the road if youd seen the hillbillies I did when I was up there lol....

Must do the motu soon, suppose I should buy a straight set of handle bars first

went for my first ride today in 15months couldn't help myself- only 2 laps of the cul-de-sac on the 530 but its a start, even had it in 2nd gear. Don't tell Sue, physio or surgeon The big grin stuck on my face might give me away though.....have to look at the 6:30 news to wipe it off.
