Skippy

I got my blood test results back today and went through them with my doctor. All good apart from my cholesterol is high so I’m going onto some low dosage tablets for a couple of months to help get it down and at the same time make some changes to the diet and up the exercise. I don’t eat badly and I’m active but a bit of improvement in those areas won’t hurt. Apart from that no dramas!

I’ll go and have a look at one and also the new Himalayan. Might even get a test ride but in terms of purchasing it’ll have to be next year.

Yes mate, for some time now.

Initial press reviews of the CFMoto 450 MT seem largely favourable. Plenty of useful bits and bobs included that many manufacturers make as optional extras and all for €5,999 (plus €250 matriculation costs). Could be the unicorn adventure travel bike if it proves reliable over time and parts back up is decent. Being sold here through some smaller dealers but also through Jade Motor which are mainstream Kawasaki, KTM, Husqvarna and Gas Gas dealers.

That’s positive then

Ah yes the old back gate problem. Mind you, it also makes it more difficult for some scumbag to get it out!

Spot on those Bob, had a couple of sets for years and they still work as well as they did when they were new. Mind you, I think they’re much better on a dirt bike rather than a naked road bike. I bought some bar end mirrors off Amazon and they work well but I can’t remember what make at the moment.

I can hear the pride in @XTreme’s voice as he describes the depravity of this place.

At least that would be more interesting than going to Albox for tea bags.

I think you need to widen your criteria. Forget all this adventure bike stuff and get something daft as fuck, fast as fuck and something that says you don’t give a………you get the idea Pete. Get a naked bike.

He doesn’t……he waits for the attendant.

Very different indeed………rarely cold during winter, sweltering hot during July and August and far less abandoned stuff.………and no @XTreme

That’s about right too!

Damn it mate I can’t.

If it wasn’t for France the UK would be on the Mediterranean
