Good to see you Russ......that's a lot of miles this year! Have you got your licence stuff sorted?

Or photography!

It was always me and Six that kept it moving really.

Like who? Most people don't even know the link......apart from those who joined from there.

I suppose I'll now be slagged off for stealing their annoying cunt! Surely they can find another annoying cunt? They can't find a replacement for me obviously......but annoying cunts don't seem to be in short supply these days!

Been going on for a few months now.......but they hadn't checked in for a while so I thought it was all finished. Doesn't seem like that though.

Look at this......this is a pisstake! Nearly 9 grand for a detuned KH250 HERE! If it was an original S1 from the early 70's........it would be a different matter. I was going in to put a deposit down on one in Jan 73.......but I got arrested first thing in the morning by the filth as I was leaving the house! Long story......I was young and a bit wild back then. We've all been there! Turned out all right in the end though......cos I bought one of these in April.

The stalker is on here.....but there's no doubt he's from there.

And it appears that @Six30's stalker from Sheffield is back after an absence. He's been monitoring the online list to see who's up to what! Word must have got out about his epic ride report!

Yeh......bike weight is an issue as we get older Bill. Not something we ever thought about when we were young. I'm 67 with bad knees so I've now got down to a 190kg/420lb bike......plus the underseat tank helps to lower the centre of gravity as well.

He's been tagged so once he comes online he'll get the notification! I gotta say that it's brilliant that you're still riding at 84......we're all pretty old on here but you got us all beat!

Hi William!

Hi William......good to see you! I think the best man to advise you on this would be @Earache......he's the resident Colorado specialist!

You'll be OK then Michelle.......no bumming for you!

Great vid Michelle! @boboneleg will be along shortly to warn you that some maniac may be lying in wait to bum you!

No....Taiwan isn't it?

Probably......but I ain't that desperate to keep taking the thing on and off! Bob will be telling me next to take my gay tyres off the same time!

Take it on and off for pics? How can I? I can't get a signal to view the YouTube video!

Where do those go?

Remember the performance getting them on and off the old racks before the plates got designed?

Let me try and explain the top box situation to you! Look back at my pics over Winter and Spring.....no box! Then about 3 or 4 months ago I put it back on.......for a reason! And that reason is to carry plenty of water, and to put my stuff in if I leave the bike unattended. Bear in mind I can go an hour or more between petrol stations, bars etc when I'm in remote areas! And there's no mobile coverage in these places. Now just imagine breaking down somewhere like that in scorching temperatures with no water and no way of getting help? You have to be very careful not to get dehydrated or get heat stroke out here! I got caught out last year despite the fact that I took water with me because I just didn't take enough. I'm not making that mistake again! Did you know that the heat kills about 1500 people every year in Spain? Apparently in 2003 there was a brutal heat wave here when 6,600 people died in 15 days. And of course, older people are more at risk. That's me that is! So that being said......you'll just have to suffer the trauma of my box for another month or so!
