Went out for my first ride on my new to me R1200RS Iconic. Did 175 miles and met Spareparts on his R1200GS Triple Black.
Had a really good day and am now happy that 300 mile days are going to be easy on this steed. Here is one of me getting ready to leave On Yer Bike to come home.
That looks ace, I'd love a go on one of those.Had a really good day and am now happy that 300 mile days are going to be easy on this steed. Here is one of me getting ready to leave On Yer Bike to come home.

Having seen the video from the track, he did not suffer.
the last two pics if him, this one he sent to my wife and I at lunch time saying he was having a great day, and a few hours later he was gone.
This is the last pic we know of, of him, it was taken just a few minutes before the accident.

One happy girlfriend.
Just passed her direct access and now has her first "big" bike.
That'll be the sgl cyclinder vibes then..?Just passed her direct access and now has her first "big" bike.
Fair play to her...and as said, does look a very nice example.
She absolutely loves it.
I bought a spotless GPZ500, thinking that she would prefer something a bit more comfortable and civilized. But the Kwak just never gets used.

Though so, a mate I've known since I was 16 is on the back 2 pages of this months issue to.It's a great magazine, for all us children of the 1960's it's essential reading!

Nice to see he's still got his 1998 'Blade. Mate of mine bought one new back in 1997 and has still got it. completely original and 5000 miles. I've lost count of the amount of times I've tried to persuade him to sell it to me.

I remember Geoff buying a new house when we had also just moved in back in 1981. He's a really nice ladIt's a great magazine, for all us children of the 1960's it's essential reading!
