Not one's mentioned the baby Strom?

I should of added the stator burnt out and the idle control valve was a twat from the start. But she loved it, then replaced with a newer white one. Haven't had any probs with this one other than her dropping it doing a U turn but we're all getting older.

Mandis first cbf1000 went back to change the bars, big festering lump of rust burst through the chrome.

I'm still have probs not sniggering with the name Motion pro.

Not as well built as the xt1200 either. I'm really enjoying it. A friend had the mt09 and said he's gonna lose his license so I thought these were maybe tuned down but once you click the sporty setting and give it some revs it's a bloody rocket ship. Far faster than I need to go. Lighter than the big XT which is why I traded but not quite as comfy, but only in the seat and more bent legs. TFT dash is good too. Once I get this front brake sorted I'll be a happy bunny again.

Build quality isn't a patch on my TDM and your Fazer but I do like it. Cracking engine.

Mine looks a bit wanting.

Cup hocks, you were lucky, we used nails which had prob been used before.

Fazer looks good in yellow

Bloody good stuff when made in Japan. Butt plugs?

Is that the stuff that "goes off" in the tyre and putsch wheel out of balance.

Yeap.

I keep one in the top box as a get you home, or one like it. Used a Holts one some years ago and it got Mandis gsr home.

Apart from the snapping off bolt. Don't expect that from something so new.

Look out, another carry on pun.

You crack on girl. Yes it's firing you a learning curve but you're learning from it. I really miss the off road stuff, body doesn't.

They call it character.

Whatever floats your boat Tym, I just don't see it other than having 2 wheels. Bet you would of had more fun on the klr.

You need an old DR you do.

Yes, some wanker went the wrong way up a slip road to a dual carriageway as Mike was coming down.

Lost a few on the TDM forum, one being Stormy.

Me, ain't been anywhere. Unless I can count my pushbike, been to work n back a couple of times. Thought I'd get out last weekend till the bloody gritters spewed their shit everywhere again. Got loads of rain in the forecast to wash it away closely followed by another cold spell.

Good pics Chris, look so much more clear than over here. That does look like a railway unless it's been filled in. Not a lot of room for a tow path either. Quite surprising how much tyre pressure is lost in colder weather.

WTF was that music all about.

Wankers. Glad you pulled them up on it. Power corrupts
