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...

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!

Too late for Henners there's no saving the man from his madness but Rob, have a go on the KTM Adventure 950, quite simply its brilliant. Capable of scratching, touring, commuting, off road and a bloody good laugh. The best non sports bike, bike i've ridden.
