Hi There, new to the forum
« on: December 06, 2018, 13:24:24 »
Hi

I have recently bought an 08 plate V-Strom 1000 after many years riding a SV650. I have got more into touring and this is more suitable for me now. It's the ground touring model and it also has a load of other extras too! I regularly visit Wales and have made a trip to Scotland too. I live in Torquay so there is always some motorway to deal with. I usually tour with our son who has a TL1000.

I'm a keen biker and always join a forum for my current bike.

Some photos for you. (panniers removed until time to go touring).
