| Ian, age takes its toll.
When we first started going out I had one of the first Suzuki GSXR 750`s.
On that we went upto John O`Groat`s once and down to London twice for MAG Demo`s in the late 80`s, but it did have a grab rail.
I traded the Suzuki in 1997 ( bought new in 1985) when we bought the Thunderbird.
Since then I`ve also run a Bandit 1200, Husqvarna 610 Supermoto, Triumph Tiger (only trip abroad to Germany) and now the KTM ( I missed a Triumph Speed Triple by half an hour).
Lucky white heather, you are spot on, but it will have tobe a second hand one.
The KTM is currently being cleaned up for sale and is currrently in the Visordown.com bikes for sale, I`ll put it in the local rags when it is ready.
It`s a 2002 KTM 640 ,big and small tanks with the Beringer/KTM brake kit, offers around £4100, just incae you know of anyone looking for one.
I was pleased to note that Alvin`s had the bike hosed down as soon as we came back, if the KTM goes and they still have the demo a deal may yet happen ( no promises ). If I hadn`t looked at Keefyboy`s accessories link I might have weakened.
If it`s meant to happen it will.  |
