Saying hello all
« on: September 08, 2017, 21:13:09 »
Hi blokes n gals , just bought a DL1000 Vstrom in yellow , it was a bit of an impulse buy as I haven't passed my test yet ! lol but I have passed mod 1 and I'm doing mod 2 a week on wednesday. I'm 51 but never got round to doing my test when I was younger , haven't rode for 30 years but getting back on a 125 has really lit the flame again  . Had a quick spin  (on a private road of course)and got to say it's a bit of a beast but I love it  :dance:
