New bike.



Well, only for a day anyway. Don't think I'd buy one though.

That somehow does not look like the new Forest to me

Re: New bike.

It was fun and after the day out yesterday, I completely understand the Harley thing. I'm in San Diego for the week, and four of us took a different bike each out into the desert. We did about 200 miles in the day.

I actually had a Sportster for the day, which was without doubt the most uncomfortable thing I've ridden. You think the AT has a naff seat, this thing took it to another level.

That's 'cos your only supposed to ride it to the nearest bar

How's it going out there, you 're giving the impression that it might not be entirely work work work!!

Re: New bike.

Work starts today, it being Monday morning for me right now, so no more fun 'n' games.

As for real bikes MoM, I've seen a few BMW's but not many, what I haven't seen is a KTM, although there's a dealership nearby, so I'll get along there and see what they have.
