Taken with my mobile on the B6342 this afternoon, midway between Alnwick & Rothbury (who said it's grim up north?!). Bike's an '05 R1100SS (5.5 rear wheel), been in my ownership for almost 18 months. Fitted with clear lenses, rear LED, Lasers, shock-mounted c/f hugger & black screen. Mark :D

Thanks chaps. It's a comparatively rare colour I think, possibly only seen on later UK market 11S's. It's got a lovely deep metallic shine to it and looks great in the metal.

Ps The roads up here are fantastic - easily amongst the best in the UK. Put them on your "must-do" list - I promise you won't regret it!

Hey GeordieBoy, don't go telling all these southerers about our fantastic uncrowded roads otherwise we'll never get moved for interlopers. I know this road like the back of my hand and your right its supurb. I was along there on Saturday, a bit wet but still great.

Great pics and by far the best and fastest colour, mines the same :wink:

Cheers, Cobbster.

Cobbster, be nice to meet up some time. Keep an eye on the Days Out forum and I'll try and arrange a Northumberland rideout over the summer.

Cheers,
Mark

Very very very tasty ! I've never seen that colour on an R1100S before.
It appears you keep it in good condition too !

Thanks bcr. Could be up for sale towards the end of the year as I fancy a change, but I'll certainly miss her when she goes...
