Christmas came early. The Millenium Falcon arrived. 
Did it come with the Charley and Ewan proof coating? You'll need it if your skin ain't thick enough.
Truth is, there are so many great bikes out there, and there will never be enough room in the garage. From an ownership proposition, however, some are just better than the rest 
The only thing missing is the flip-front lid and beard...

Looking good Ade - is that the non-adventure model as it doesn't have the spoked wheels?Decided against the cross-spokes as they are a pain to clean, and the spokes need regular tightening.

Tried the Adventure version, but found it too wide and unwieldy for more spirited solo-riding. If riding 2-up or into the wilderness of Zimbabwe like Steve, however, I suspect the Adventure model is the one to have!
I wouldn't bet on it! How to have an instant sense of humour failure.............
Nice bike Ade, should cosset you nicely through the winter months until the hair grows back on ya balls and it's Ducati time!!

You're spot on with the winter months view... and we'll see what's what when the new Multi is out in June...

very nice, was in the BMW dealers admiring those bikes and will be booking a test ride soon along side the new S1000RX. They offer some very tempting Finance deals so may consider getting one as i can't afford the 12K to buy outright.I look forward to hearing how you get on with the bike
Fine weather in Thailand makes biking a daily event. Just bought this CBR 300 and it is ideal for here. Max top sped 160 ks, anything faster will be a liability here. Had everything from a Matchless 350 to an Aprilia RsvR, but this is a great fun bike. Not sure if they are released yet in the UK. Cost 130,000 bht here, about £2600 new.
The wife can ride too, as all Thai girls seem to use scooters from junior school upwards.

Nice day for a change - sun came out, blue skies, not too chilly and the roads weren't too filthy. I guessed most folks would be out Xmas shopping and it would be quite quiet, and so it was. Went for a wee chug around Fife and only saw 2 other bikes - a Fat Boy and a Pan. I guess all the sportsbikes are put away for the winter now
