Not another new member
« on: September 16, 2008, 15:58:19 »
Hi blokes

I've had my Vstrom for quite a while now, the first owner only put 104 miles on the clock over the summer of 2002, I bought it in the October and now have done (a paltry) 10,000 or so miles.  I keep on trying to do more each year, but I guess you all know how it is...

I've had no problems to date, and don't even suffer a great deal of buffeting.  My pillion used to, but she doesn't tend to go on the back these days.  Oh well B:)

She's Got to  service coming up (bike not wife!) is there anything I should be aware of that might need looking at?

But the question is did she enjoy the buffeting?

Oh yes!

Then, maybe not.

Then she cried enough!!

This was then followed by a series of bruised ribs and kidneys if I went over 60mph, especially in the corners.  But that's another story.

So it's mostly solo riding now - occassionally down as low as 60...
