Hi All - just joined from Farnborough
« on: January 12, 2026, 14:47:45 »
Bought my DL1050 in October and barely used it as the winter month kicked in. Going to put some day light running lights on it when the weather is dry enough to work on it outside. Will surely be looking for hints and tips from you!

Confused as hell, but at least I know which end of a spanner to hit a nut with!

Hello  Vstrom1050GU14 and  :welcome2:. I lived and worked in Farnborough for a year some time ago, lovely part of the world and so convenient for some wonderful rides. Enjoy your V-Strom, good choice.  :thumb:

This doesn't last forever, so do it while you can. Nothing travels faster than the speed of time.
