Nice one Richard, must admit that colour scheme is starting to grow on me. I'll warn you now though that the rear wheel will get sooooooo dirty you won't believe it. Went out the other night for a whizz, it was mostly dry apart from a 5 minute shower. Got home looked at bike next morning and you'd have thought I rode through a potato field !

Anyway looks good, hope you enjoy it .

Welcome back to the fold!
You really need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape.

Very true - I'll just have to blame my parents for that one. :(

Good to see you again today Lloyd - hope you had a good ride back home. And of course, if you ever fancy selling that Arrow system give me 1st shout eh?? ;)

I did look at my 2 MZ's sat in the garage when I got home - if that counts? Poor things, hardly get used these days - owned them for 4 years now I guess, if it comes to it, I can one a bike for more than a fortnight ;) :D

At least my garage is now completely German - and the BCR does look extremely comfy sat in there. :)

Very nice bike Richard, How much do you want for it next month? I may just be converted from the Mamola rep if the price is right :wink:

seriously though, I really hope you enjoy your new steed, perhaps you need to keep this one, and just have a few sordid affairs/mistresses(?) on the side?

Thanks Ron. :)

As to the grass - I'm really sorry. My butler's extremely lazy these days. ;)

Richard,

Has that bike not been out in the wet. I know you do, with the mileage you do every year. That bike is so clean, fancy coming up here and getting mine half as clean.

At the moment it is covered in flys from Sundays run with Ian.

Ron,

It will only get dirty again, and I'll have to start all over again, no fun in that.
