I’m old, but new to this.
« on: June 12, 2025, 08:29:43 »
Greetings from darkest Derbyshire. I’ve just taken ownership of my first V-Strom and having a lot of fun finding my way around it and making “entirely necessary” purchases to make it even better. Thanks for letting me join in here and I’m looking forward to getting to know the like minded folk here.😊

Knock it on the head with 'necessary purchases', you'll make the rest of us look bad.
