Pedro

I like what he has to say about it.

Lot of stuff being posted, so I just took care of it.

I was watching on the news yesterday that the severe rain storms affecting Portugal are heading your way Pete, if they are it's proper amounts of water. If it'll continue like now, I'll just hang around the house. If it clears up I might take the bike for a little ride around since I'm north, visit a couple of roads I used to do on the Transalp, but this time not getting stuck on the mountains.

@Mocardinewas being a twat! Where is @modrover when we need him?

I deleted it.

I don’t watch movies about 800 KTMs, pussy bikes. Do it in an enduro or a 1200!

You’ll see the whole movie in gifs,@Clive

WTF Clive!

Rocky and Rocky II is on tv now! Portuguese tv!

Better get a chinese one. Pushing is good exercise!

Might as well try and enjoy it since you're doing it anyway.

Classy response, Clive.

Nice colour on the new one. I do like the bronze on the 500's engine, though.

Did you slip a disc fitting the handguards, thus stopping your riding?

You're filming now too?

Sounds a bit like those expats that Pete complains about, living partly somewhere but at the same time not really living there, just acting like they're on two weeks holiday and forgetting about going back.

Plenty of theoretically interesting bike for me, a Triumph that is cheaper than a BMW but supposedly very good, a couple of Ducatis, but I just don't like their shops here in Portugal and their attitude. Might be just towards me though

Did you stop riding after fitting the handguards?

Or just take that BMW you have gathering dust and spider webs. That engine was made for touring, and you’re insulting it.

They can be sold anywhere with a good Honda dealership, just not usually displayed on showrooms so use that to check them out. Fit a sheep’s skin on top for road trips, they’re cool bikes!

In Spain you might find a dealer carrying Honda Montesa bikes. They are sweet!

Hopefully not long, Bob. Even one week would way too much.

As far as heating gilets, all I have to say is that you shouldn’t re-heat fish…
