Well, I am back! Red 1050 this time!
« on: May 18, 2025, 17:47:03 »
Back on a Strom 1050, after 10 years on Versys' , hoping to get some advice on sorting out the AWFUL saddle!! Otherwise, delighted with the machine! Give we a wave if you see a luminous red one passing by!

PS they do seem to have sorted out the low speed fuelling now!
