  1. Greetings, good luck with the CBT, I hope you have lots of time and plenty of chrome polish cos your gonna need both to keep all those bits shiny. and post a picky when she arrives.
  2. According to the specs its only 10 Kg lighter but the ground clearance is also less and of course with those raked out forks the wheel base is a bit longer, so when I get the time I'll sort out a test ride, at the end of the day weather I buy new or a low mileage second hand mint one its gonna cost me a few bob so I want to make sure I'm happy with the handling before I splash out the cash.
  3. can I plead the 5th amendment?
  4. Maybe, depends if I can convince his non biking parents that it would be a good idea That's just my eldest arsing about as usual That's my brother in law, he just moved his BMW out of shot to save me embarrassment no just likes to look the part Hey that's my nice your talking about but if she's anything like her mum she would......
  5. To be honest I can't say exactly why I prefer the custom to my 1300, perhaps its because I've had ten years of chrome bling and I'm all chromed out, I just like the look of the custom and yes I could do some work on mine but after spending 40 odd years working on bikes and cars ( swore that I'd give up that shit after the last engine transplant I did on my daughters mini a few years ago) I can't be arsed with that. I think that I just need want a change and after keeping past bikes and cars for years and years because I couldn't afford to change them, I'm thinking fuck it, its only my kids inheritance that I'll be spending. but maybe a test ride first would be a good plan.
  6. While I love my bike maybe its time for something new, I've been looking at the xvs 1300 custom but can't make up my mind, decisions decisions
  7. Meet 10 day old Ben the newest member of the meatloaf family, he is my great nephew which must make GREAT uncle meat.
  8. After suffering with a sore arse a few weeks back I splashed out on a Mustang seat for my bike, it was a lot of cash but figured I've only one arse and I plan to to go on a few long trips this year. Took the first trip on the new seat today, it was only about 140 miles but first impressions were good. Just a run down to the coast to take advantage of the sun and to have a bite to eat, here is the view from the burger van looking down on Pompy
