    But I ride because I love it, even if her and the whole damn family think I’m selfish.
    I’d love to have a partner who was into bikes as well – you guys are lucky. Good on ya.
    Thanks for that My hubby is especially lucky because it was me who introduced him to bikes! I had one when he met me

    Hmmmm, what is a suitable reciprocal gift for a motorcycle then? Let me think..... Perhaps I'll let him have a

    Still, it's only a Honda Bros, so I won't get too carried away - not like it's a Triumph 675 or some such blingingly beautiful machine.

    Nah, stuff him - he can take his 748 for a ride

    ETA and I probably won't get to ride it before xmas anyway - it desperately needs new tyres, new chain and brake lever

    Good choice of bike.Really excellent handling and very light.My upgrade bike was going to be a Honda Bros 650, but couldn't find any for the right price.Ended up getting a ZZR600 instead.Looking forward to tacking it on a trackday. Good luck restoring yours and getting it racing.
