    How Transalp is your garage?

    Mine is pretty Transalp, with a trio of the Terrific Twins.




    This afternoon saw the delivery of a shiny (ish) new addition to the family in the shape of this '01 example with 27k on the clock, bought from the Mount and delivered by Biketranz.


    As always when buying site unseen (I did get the bike checked out by a fellow KB'er) there is the odd unpleasant surprise, in this case a pretty shite piece of re-spray where it has been dropped. It is cosmeticlly not as nice as the one I bought for D in July last year, but on the other hand it was $1250 cheaper and is mechanically A1. So now the battle commences to get it ready for DB1K11.

    Incidentally, I have had an expression of interest in the faithful old blue 'Alp, but if this individual chooses to pass the opportunity up it will be for sale in late Feb for around 2k.

    so why then do I know, I will see you in far off places?

    Good taste in bikes birdfolks. Matching silver TA's - pretty flash.
    Sometimes you wish it was easier, but if it was, everyone else would do it, then you remember you don't want to be like everybody else!
