    Wink #1000 and not before time I fear!

    Aha! Thought you'd heard the last of me eh? No such luck!
    Having survived the savage onslaught of the "heavenly bedbaths", in Bangkok . They eventually threw me out of the hospital last week, had to wait a week for the final tests, (bad place to stay Bangkok, I'd recommend it to everyone). Back in Manila on the way home, I decided to make the milestone "1000"th post!
    Went into the KTM dealer this morning and put the downpayment on the 990 Adventure "S", (gel seat, full adventure luggage, Akrapovic exhausts etc etc)
    The wife even came with me and was stunned into silence as a 990 came into the shop for a service, man, those A'povic exhausts are awesome! All I will need now is another Stiebel horn or two!
    Hope all is well with you all, lots to read thru and make my usual inane comments, some things never change!
