A returnee …
« on: April 23, 2025, 11:30:49 »
Hi once again,

Finally come full circle and put a deposit down on a slightly second hand 650. This will be my 3rd. I’m a bit of a bike tart and kept being lured away but this will be my last bike one way or the other.

Live in Oxford and haven’t been getting out for many rides for various reasons so I’m hoping this will give me a kick in the pants.

A bit of a bike tart, and this is going to be your last bike? Once a tart always a tart but next time you flit about with something else for a while, keep the Suzuki in the garage.  :smirk: :thumb:

Seriously, once this goes I’ll be stopping completely. One of my big regrets is selling my 1st VStrom. Second one had to go as it was a last minute purchase when my 800GS was being fixed after an accident. Didn’t have room to keep both.

This doesn't last forever, so do it while you can. Nothing travels faster than the speed of time.
