    Sooo...anyone want to lend me a bike?

    Weather permitting, I'm taking the elusive missus for her first coro loop (pillion). Now she's not too keen on the whole leaning over thing on a bike, so it'll be real cruise. Anyone want to lend me a Tourer/Sport Tourer/Decent sized cruiser for the day so she can travel in comfort?



    PS: Could swap the Trumpy for the day if anyone's keen

    Yeah, the triumph has an ok pillion seat, but I think the most she's done in one trip is about 150km on the back. 400km or so might be pushing it
    Maybe I need a sidecar. heh

    If you take regular stretch stops she might be ok

    what's wrong with your bike?
    would have thought it'd be perfect to cruise 2 up on

    Its pretty good (was quite a selling point for a sporty bike) but there's no replacement for a big fat squishy seat. Maybe I need to steal an RF900 for the day? heh.

    Always the option of renting a bike for the day. Although that costs a wee bit eh.
