Well, the wife got fed up with me whinging & moaning, & said go buy yourself a new bike, & with a little help from the UKBEG crowd, (BIG thanks Maz) I got a superb deal & picked up a new '07 TT from Manchester HD in England. Darren the sales guy is a 2 Bueller himself so I knew I was in good hands. I flew in & rode home, 350 miles & an overnight ferry crossing. It lagged it down with rain all the way. I can tell you all, Buell TT = waterproof. Buell boots = NOT!! Here's a few pics.

Are you going to ship it over for homecoming?? Looks good, mate! We look forward to seeing you in July. There is an outside chance I might have the time for a "pre-homecoming" trip. |

Oh he isn't grumpy because of what or what he doesn't ride. It has more to do with his frame of mind in the morning until a certain brown liquid is imbibed in copious quantities. Iowa-Mike |

Thanks all, finally got out on some dry road yesterday evening, fun fun fun. Nearly run in now too! Iamike, you know me too well! Ferris von, I know where there was a Benelli Sei for sale, but that wouldn't be a lot of use for shooting critters with. |
