The seasons are changing.......Terry and Tara have woken up after four months hibernation in the cupboard!

Nice screen!

On a CB500X there are 8000 mile service intervals, and the valve check is only done every 16000. No idea on cost from the main dealer though. I bought the bike with 15.5K kms......now up to 17.6K kms nearly 8 months later. I'm going to get Juan Cortes to do an oil and filter change at 19K and 22K, then they can do the big one with valves at 25.6K.

I was at the bike show in London in 1972 when they unveiled the Z1......that was the gamechanger!

All the best Fred!

I got the Death Stare when I told the wife I was ordering a rack and box!

Same as mine! Mine were much thinner and lighter but for wind protection they're fine.

The stuff I've had from there has been decent enough.

She's probably one of the participants anyway!

They were social gathering places in those days!

Personally I miss the old spit and sawdust bike shops we had back in the 70's. Those guys could fix anything with whatever came to hand!

You don't get bike shops like that here.......certainly not in my part of the world. The best I've been to in terms of presentation is Belmonte BMW in Murcia! Full of Chinkies these days!

Happy environment back there?

Having a right old knees up then?

Always looks immaculate there.

Yeh......it was a good fight. His opponent was pretty tough.

Just in case: How to remove Curry stains!

Frochy smells money @Six30

I thought you were OK with nights Saul?

Spain is quite happy to have Cockneys and Swansea Jacks......no standards are too low for this place!

Compared to the GS750 it was a lot slower......and the bars were much too low for me. I didn't keep it long, I went and bought another CB750F1.

Brilliant quality vid!

I had a Katana 650 in the 80's......wasn't impressed.

Doing as little as possible is in their DNA Caroline!

Meanwhile in Spain they couldn't give a fuck! And I saw a news report that, unlike the northern European countries, no Brit has ever been deported from Spain for over-staying the 90 days. Seems they couldn't give a fuck about that either! I even know somebody who had residency, left in 2016 and stayed outside Spain for six and a half years. Thereby invalidating his residency. Spain didn't even know that he ever left, his residency was still valid, and I suppose even if they did know they wouldn't give a fuck! Spain is truly the epicentre of not giving a fuck!
