SteveD- i was thinking about it but im looking at trying someones bike which has had that many mods done to it yet so i get a feeling of what a standard bike is like (would be looking at fitting cans/can, stg2 air filter for performance mods the rest would be cosmetic type). I know i really should have shouted but now give me an excuse to get out and about!!!!
Jasxt- ive looked into the Ktm 690 and it is nice, but i still want something i could do a far bit of milage on and i did sit on one in a show room once for all of about 5 mins until i had to pull the seat from my rear
. 950 would love to but license looser for me (ive a heavy right hand and PC plod would like that combo
as they are not liking it on the tiger 1050 now as well!!!)
Fiddich- this is scary i just looked at google maps 2 secs ago before i looked at this post to see where you lived and thought, ah 4 hrs to aberdeen on the bike after work on friday, meet fiddich on sat and get a go on a ten, then ride home via twistys to glasgow on sunday!!! And no its not a long distance for a test ride its an adventure to see a friend
I might take you up on that offer. Hows the foot going anyway? What are you like for Sat July 28th? (ive quiet alot on between now and then with knockhill BSB, weekends in scotland on bike if weathers good and italy for two weeks
) Any good but cheap places to stay in Aberdeen part from the standard Travel Lodge/Preimer Inn?
