Greetings from chilly Belfast
« on: February 03, 2025, 19:14:22 »
Hello all,
I'm Jeff and today just stuck a deposit down on a 2023 V-Strom 800 RE :lala:.  I hope to pick it up this coming weekend. 
MY CFO has forbidden ownership of more than one bike, so will have to then sell on my 16 year old TDM 900 :icon_no:
Hopefully the new bike will be just as reliable and enjoyable (if not more so)...

Kind Regards.

Welcome Jeff. I'm quite sure that the new 800 will be at least as good as the great Yamaha TDM.  :thumb:
