pity I aint taller...altho they do lowering kits and its probably same kind of size as a numpty

so you did get 'into' it in the end?

Certainly looked quite comfy when you were going up the road

Took your advice Charlotte and spent a bit of time adjusting a few things, did a lot of miles and it started to make sense.

Yep, considering a GS or a KTM Adventurer too. There's a reason there so damm popular. My 1100S has all the engine/shaft/luggage/touring attributes but the comfort should be better on the more upright trailies.

go on, you know it makes sense...

... just ordered a new one, without ABS, in red/black, get it next weekend

Blimey Henners....

You get through bikes the way most people get through wine gums...although a wine gum probably lasts longer

Ackcherly, I've always thought I'd quite like one of them myself as an everyday bike, just can't afford one.

Enjoy it!
