New toys

Post by slparry »

Well assuming all goes through ok I've done the deal on an F800GS with "comfort package".

After a chunk of haggling, and pointing out the issues I've had before, I managed to get them to do the F800GS + pack for the price of the plain F700GS :)

Supposed to be picking it up next Saturday fingers crossed!

I "may" put the Funduro on ebay, or for the grand it'll fetch I "may" keep it as the winter hack still not decided yet :)

Excellent, I've always liked the 800GS since it came out. Good colour choice too!

the adventure was not part of the current promotion, and again is going porkier, part of the fun had today was the light flickability of it all :)

Excellent! Good for you. As was said, life's too short. As my gran used to say, ain't no pockets in a shroud. Enjoy.
