In the words of "Ol' Blue Eyes"
 

As the time draws close to the contract ends, and this forum will disappear on Dec 31st 2019, I wanted to thank you all for all the support and your great input. It's been a blast and you have all been fantastic.

There are no better ways to describe my feelings than these words from Frank Sinatra old classic "My Way"

Enjoy folks and ride safe!

THANK YOU

I've also enjoyed my time on this forum,and I've learnt many great tips and tricks to help my with the xt ownership. I'll be sad to see it go and I've never had any Interest in Facebook,but may have to change that in the future unless directed to another quality xt forum.

After some years of storage the old XT660R is in the process of being fettled.
Looking forward to beating my granddad who was still riding at 73.
Next year I hope to beat that and continue as long as health and the law allows.

Your inspiring leadership will be with me until I finally take off my helmet for the last time. Sometime in the 2030s or 2040s maybe.

Best wishes to you and yours.
