Congratulations Mr Power.

Poor Nail being replaced by a younger sexier model...

Did you need help to get your helmet off?

Went for my 1st blast on the Nails new and as yet one-named garage mate.

Astonishing, simply astonishing.

Did you get the KTM?

TLPower · « **Reply #564 on:** June 08, 2018, 17:14:28 »

Yes Paul.

It's mental.

Pictures and initial impressions to follow.

Forced to order a new rear tyre. Watch it be hot and sunny all weekend...

Collected my 59 plate, Harley Davidson XL 1200 C today and should be collecting the SV on Monday. Fingers crossed for a dry day eh!

That hasn't seen many damp ditches by the look of it.

Hang on I'll check the wet weather riding advice.............

What happened to the Fat Bob ?

Brockett · « **Reply #570 on:** June 28, 2018, 22:44:01 »

Fat Bob was fast but very uncomfortable. It has gone to live in Sweden. The proceeds just about paid for the SV and the sportster.

Formalised the sale of the TTR

Some bloke called Tony

is sending a man with a van to collect it in the morning.

Looks like I'll only be a road marshal for the Taffy Dakar next year.

That'll be Ridaz on the Leeds Halloween "Ride out", then.

Fitted new seat to the SV tuck and roll one nice and comfy now, then painted the heat shield
on the exhaust as per profile picture.

Honestly can't wait to take collection.... those who know me will explain how long I've moaned on about getting a Trail bike and I had just binned the idea off when this came up for sale.

Mr Diver I promise I will take good care of it to the best of Tigerman's ability and you never know... it may come to the Taffy Dakar still.

mr_diver · « **Reply #576 on:** June 29, 2018, 21:51:21 »

Locky, Juvecu and Longman have a team for the Taffy Dakar. All on TTR250's
They Won the whole thing last year.
Didn't do so well this year

Oh, The TTR has it's own V-Strom.co.uk sticker and a Welsh sheep one too

Sold the SV to a chap from Dundee just now: I made a fair profit on the whole job and he's away happy with what he paid. Equally important right now though, that's the space cleared for the SP3: I was looking at having to blag space in a neighbour's garage until it sold.

Fitted a set of Touratech panniers to my 1000 L6. Not a pretty sight but very functional.

Introduced them to each other
