You're a slacker @Clive , clear them leaves up now

Could get trapped by the amount of suspension movement compared to a road bike.

Brake hose

And it’s now ready to get dirty all over again

It looks stunning, I’d happily live by the coast until the hordes appear in the summer

Washed it it’s up the ramp now for some fettling

Another top play for TOTY

Boom !! that was exactly my experience when riding against my mates on their CB750K and GS550E Plus they didn't like tasting my Bel-Ray 2t smoke

Hmmmmmmmm, we'll have to agree to disagree on that then . I don't remember any four stroke in that range keeping up with my 350LC off the lights and as I said before the skinny forks were pretty good at getting you into a tank slapper , hence why so many peeps fitted a fork brace . Mind you, I can remember when I took it for a MOT once the tester tightened up my steering head for me, that may not have helped the situation Anyway, that was my experience .

However, I would take issue with the 'precise steering' cos from what I remember (again) those skinny forks gave me may a front-end wobble

It certainly was a shock to the opposition as I remember it. Dudes with the latest 650/750 four strokes were blown into the weeds .

Hmmmmmmmmmm, can you imagine how you'd fare with @Buckster on the other end of the phone ???

Oh indeed, I'd go mad if I had nothing to do. Inbetween jobs I did volunteer work, I need something to keep everything moving.

I can honestly say that I'm enjoying my retirement ........

I never said I wanted it, I just don't want it to shut down . Where the f8ck else can you go that's like here ..............

It's a do it all unit Fred. Finds the trails with OS maps, roads with city navigator , fuel stations, hotels, campsites , cafes and points of interest. It takes me around Europe , including trails and I get my text/whatsapp messages come up on the screen as it's bluetoothed to my phone. It's not affected by glare as it's backlit and has some clever technology in the screen. It's a fairly expensive outlay in the beginning but will probably last over 10 years if my previous model is anything to go by

Very nice Pete, what it is to be a man with a man's bike eh !

Better still get a dedicated motorcycle sat nav instead of ruining your phone

Ummmmmmmmmmmmm , that's just a sauce to put on your seafood . It's just that @Six30 seems to prefer put it on his Sunday roast dinner kebab

Does Michael Jackson know ?

Very neat that. You should knock up five more and sell them to other Beta owners

Talking about nurses, where is our forum nurse ? I hope her mum hasn't set a trap for her

It's absolute shite here today (again) grey and manky and drizzling. Anyway, I wouldn't have been out as I'm still on nurse duties , Paolo is a bit better but Ersilia is still coughing like a horse.........

At least he isn't wearing one of tYm's swimsuits

There's something about a big Kwaker , they just look 'right'
