W @ n k e r s every where I'm afraid ...

Great stuff Gerry :D Pleased she's still going well Thanks mate . I some times think I should be doing more to the bike. I change the oil and filter twice a year, I've changed all the other oils several times, I bleed fresh fluid into brakes and clutch. Obviously brakes and tyres . I had the rear w...

Girlfriend and I out on sunday, off into the hills, for a tapas at La Romana .

Jeznewsome , the old ex N9JOB ( on Spanish plates) racked up 60 thousand miles .

I had to snap the pic early, was about to head into a fast down hill mountain pass, no where to stop and snap the actual 60k roll over !!

47 yrs ago first proper gig, Slade, Hammersmith Odeon, School trip!! Bus load of 15-16 yr olds, one teacher and his girlfriend. Seats being ripped up and thrown about, probably thinking his career in teaching wouldn’t last very long. Al. Who'd have thought you were a hooligan in your yoof ?? :lol: ...

Hi Gerry, the 1100S didn’t sell? You keeping hold of it for now? A rather good move. The value can only go up imo. Such handsome beasts!

I hope you find your old BMW .

The Kwaka ! Wow, that sounded like quite some awesome machine !!!

I like the Kwaker Two Smoker in your picture !!! I had two of those many years ago , a 350 triple and a 500 triple !!! Yes, like you I bought an R1100S , with ABS , frightened myself silly with it, sold it , and then bought one off here without ABS. I still have it , enjoy it and regularly ride it !

Correct , N9JOB light came on a few times about 129 miles !!

I kind of start looking for a fuel station about 110 miles when I'm on longer trips !
