Well, here I am sat in a service station somewhere south of Manchester. Picked up the storm early afternoon and rode her with trepidation at first through the rolling windy's from Hexham toward Penrith, then south on the m6 through a very gusty Lake District. Shame about the high wind today it has m...

Nice one...

Shame you're coming up on Saturday. I'm out and about that day. Anyway, don't worry too much about the tank capacity. Just fill it up to the brim with the bike upright. Easiest sitting on it. You get at least another litre (or more) in the tank that way. Have fun, bring sun glasses.... Hi again, Qu...

Let me check my cave when I'm back at the weekend. Can't remember if I still have the rack. I know I have a scrapped box.
It's a bit hand painted so will fit in with your stead.

That's very good of you.
Let me know if you find it.
Many thanks,
Mat..

Get up there early and ride back via Al' s workshop day near Stratford on Avon and we'll give it a once over. There's also a bbq, and from there it's only two and a bit hours home. Good proposal Tony. Freddy shout out if you are interested and I will pm you contact details hi mate, that sounds good...

Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk aah, never mind. thanks for letting me know anyway.. i need to put a wanted ad up for one but need to make 50 posts fi...

regarding the cosmetics thats exactly what i thought from the photos however the seller assures me close up it really is very bad (maybe we have different standards!) i think the main issue is not the state of the tank and plastics but the fact that much of the frame, engine, wheels, bits and bobs ...

Picking an R1200GS up in around a week, so it's time to say goodbye to the VTR soon. I'll be giving it a once-over then off to the bay she goes. Aside from the starter connector corroding (easily sorted) she has been 100% reliable in almost 4 years of ownership and a trip around Europe. I fancied a...

Hi all, Thanks for all the advice on my last post regarding what to look for when purchasing an old firestorm. And big thanks to Ian (Kermit) who kindly went and viewed one for me. Anyway I've decided to go with that one up in Hexham. A lot rougher cosmetically than the other option but it does have...

Sorry to keep posting..
Just been looking around on the site for the techs for the MCCT mod and the stopper safety mod. All I can find is loads old discussions and referenc to them but not the actual techs.
Can anybody direct me to them. Thought I'd have a read out of interest..
