View Full Version : Back on the road again

After killing my old bike at the start of November I am finally back on the road again. The insurance company finally paid out. There were no hassles it was just slow.
See my new baby, she is a bit bright but a nice ride. These have been described as an old mans sports bike and in some respects it is right. It has torque all the way through and just cruises along easily in a nice comfortable position and when you need to roll on the power it is just there.
It is no where as brutal as my old GS1200ss or GSXR1100 but still all the power I need.
Looking forward to the nice weather (If it ever comes). And my replacement jacket and gloves (I am patched with Duct tape at the moment)

mIGHT not be as "brutal" as the gsx etc but def. looks way better don't you think? Not so boxy looking in the rear end. Hope it does what you tell it to.

Yes - it is a bit on the yellow side - but with my all black gear I will be able to ride into a swarm of wasps and not get noticed :scooter:
