Hello from Hampshire
« on: February 08, 2019, 09:51:06 »
Hi everyone, my name is Andy and I purchased a used 2018 V Strom 650 XT this week.  After 25 years out of the saddle the "Wee" seems to be the perfect reintroduction to two wheels.  Been having a blast this week on the commute through Hampshire, but now I have to clean those wonderful spokes this weekend, grrrrrrr.  Looking forward to picking your brains in the future and I'm off to MCN show in London next Friday to start accessorising!!  Cheers :auto-dirtbike:

You'll never find yourself flying down the road wishing you were wearing less protective clothing.
