    Oh the indignity of it...

    Deal done - all the bits put on and/or transferred to my new steed, money sorted........ now how to get it home???? - seeing as how I wasn't trading in the Tiger
    Couldn't get a ride in as the Princess was frantically busy in town with her stuff and I've been pretty much living through there because of that.....

    Oh Fuck - theres only one way I can do this - see the pictures below

    As soon as I have had dinner it will be on with the gear and away - at least I'll find out how good the headlight is. Had so much to do this afternoon that I couldn't take it out...mutter mutter

    I even had to wash it when I got it home because of all the shit flying up behind the Pajero on the way up my road!!!!

    Wheres a Star Trek transporter when I bloody need one huh

    Its going to be a cautious ride tonight though - two new tyres and the gorge was looking icy when I came through earlier today

    Nice Bruce. But it looks so bright.

    Shrek and I will have to come down for a look see quite soon. I think I can find some sunglasses that will cope.
    Time to ride

    As it shall be written, so it shall be done!

    Oh well, KTM will soon read BMW!

    will your cruel teasing never end.....
    Actually I don't dislike BMW's - they just don't do it for me, but , when I get to your age....... - so when's yours arriving??

    Actually the flecked paint on the front section is quite stunning when the sun shines on it - matt over the tank area where fuel could spill on it. Seems a shame to get it dirty - but dirty it will most certainly get !!
    If you're thinking of coming down - not next week
    That road between you and Roxburgh sounds like it has been horrendous and not a good place for a bike - I think I'll wait till the hoar frost is over.

    We will have to do the Dunstan/Nevis weekend trip this coming season

    Yes I was wondering how long before someone made that sort of comment about my trailer !!!!
    Believe it or not (maybe you shouldn't answer that) I have just spent a bit on it - new doors front and rear plus that bolt on bike holder for the dirt bikes, new tyres and wheel bearings......maybe I should paint it? - Nah, fuck that, its a dirty farm trailer and no amount of pandering will change that
