    Visitors centre end is closed. Brecon Dyfynnog area to Colbren is a grey area ( this is why Im in TRF) and the part down to Seven Sisters is open for a period of time again

    And it is good to be back in the spiritual home
    And looking into springs, although ground clearance is the main problem with a TA. Maybe Im expecting too much, but Ive also possibly written off thoughts of a Ten as for the money spent it wouldnt be worth the damage I would cause And I do love a good V Twin.... maybe I should just once and for all get an Africa Twin hey !!

    I have been looking on Advrider J..... Im seeing the rear can be changed for an RD03 swingarm pretty easily which would give a lift at the rear, an RD04 also fits but needs a touch more fiddling. On the front Dominator front forks fit but then theres issues with what brakes you would use, the cost then starts to rise with parts required and the engineering know how to get it all fitted correctly. As for KTM forks !!! Jeez it s a second mortgage !!
