Mood: Happy again with Numptystrada
Some years ago I was riding my BMW R90/S from the dealers in Sandwich to my (then) girlfriends home in Canterbury having just had it custom painted Green/Silver Smoke by BMW GB when unbeknown to me one of the side pannels came off. I retraced my journey but found nothing. About 2 weeks later I was talking to my next door neighbour in Ashford when his son-in-law who was visiting him from Deal said "You ride a BMW do you know anyone that this would be of any use to?" Yes lo and behold there was my side pannel which he had seen laying in the road whilst on patrol in his police car. A few days back at BMW GB (Then in Dover) and it was like new.
I'm glad you had the same luck as me
