    Good evening,

    Hi I'm Val H,

    Just joined this evening. Some of you might know me from the UKGSer forum where I've been hanging out and getting involved for the last three years or so.

    I ride an 05 BMW R1200gs and have to confess I don't have a Honda of any description these days, though I have had a few over the last 30 years. The last being a cm90 circa 1967, passed on after being in my possession for about 20 of those years.

    'So' I hear you ask, 'What are you doing here if you don't have a Honda trail bike then???'

    Well I'm here by kind permission of the Administration. Over the last year I've been supplying Tucano Urbano Muffs and Gauchos to the members of the UKGSer forum. Then the other day I was asked asked if they fit the Varadero.
    Well in short they are a universal fit so the answer is yes they do, as well as the other bikes on this forum plus many others.

    Over the next couple of days I'll post more details. In the mean time I'll be having a look at what you folks do with yours, a bit of fording maybe?

    Val.

    What I've found Val that during my few months of membership that your welcome no matter what your steed although a Honda forum it tends to attract al adventure/trail riders and this helps it be one of the most active forums around on the net.

    So in short Welcome, Welcome, Welcome

    Hello and Welcome to the Forum, Val.
    YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE

    Hello my dear How are you, and what of your family not forgetting the old man?
    I'm glad to see you still have Twinkletoes, and that you've expanded your stable with the Africa Twin, what an iconic motorcycle. Catch up soon.


    Thanks everyone for the warm welcome. I'm sure I'll have as much fun here as I do on the gser's.

    Val.
