Hi Mark, After 3yrs of 1100S ownership I've recently swopped to an 1150GS. To be honest I'm now very enamoured with the GS; suits our 2-up touring needs far better than the S, and a lot more roomy with better luggage capability. I liken it to a "motorised armchair" :D As has been mentioned...

Hi Brian, Very envious.......I've only recently moved on from a 1100S to a 1150GS (advancing years etc, etc :lol:) but would have a HP2 in my garage if funds ever allowed! I'm only over near Bath so might see you out sometime? Perhaps I'll give Fowler's a try one Saturday lunchtime? Apologies in adv...

Hi Lars,

Glad to see you got sorted.......nice looking bike there

Regards Bob

Cheers Huw..........saved me the trouble of thinking-up a suitable reply

Here you go then: http://i219.photobucket.com/albums/cc60/BikerBob57/ShoeiHornet2.jpg http://i219.photobucket.com/albums/cc60/BikerBob57/ShoeiHornet1.jpg Not wearing it I'm afraid........far too scary :lol: More info here: http://www.shoei-europe.com/en/swf_products.php?name=Hornet%20DS They retail ...

Oh well.........I'm 50! My first bike was a Honda CB125, then the 400/4 when it first came out, followed by a 550/4. Never managed to stretch to a 750/4 however I've always had a soft-spot for Honda 4's since. This new offering floats my boat. Finances allowing I'd have one in the garage along with ...

Does it for me

Must be for people of a certain age

For those of you out there with GS's or similar I've just bought a Shoei Hornet (their alternative to the Arai Tour-X). Must say after a 80 mile plus ride at the weekend I am well impressed. Very stable at speed and even without the Pinlock fitted it stayed pretty mist free. Comes with removal chin ...

Oh er missus........ :lol: With the purchase of my GS I currently fancy one of the new Shoei Hornet helmets. Unfortunately the colour I like the most only comes in a matt finish. Any one got any experience of these matt finishes? Do they clean-up okay and the fly splatts come off. I normally use Ara...

Interesting site to browse?

I left the fold a couple of months ago though still can't resist remaining on the Forum (I did get a GS though :D ) At the end of the day you've just got to go with whatever "floats your boat".......and what the budget allows! What you require out of a bike does change over time. You only ...

Hi Lars,

I suspect they are only open at weekends on Saturday mornings (perhaps other times by appointment?).

I'll drop you a PM with my contact no. By all means give me a call if you do firm up plans to come down

Regards Bob

Hi Lars,

Unfortunately I'm in a 9 to 5, Monday to Friday, work routine! It'd have to be a Saturday to meet-up.

Good-luck anyway if you do decide to pop down.

Cheers Bob

Once had the outgoing 1150R as a loan bike; had to it ride 70 miles in torrential rain to get home :shock: You can easily forget how unprotected you are from the weather on a naked bike. I'm sure the 1200R is great for a fine weather blast but personally I prefer something with a little more protect...

Hi Lars,

Unfortunately at work on Monday

Perhaps some other time?

By the way quite liked the look of the R80 they had on their site.

Regards Bob
