My bitchin' set of wheels
 
2005 F650 GS Dakar.

It's slower than a moped & I'd prefer to filter through traffic on a cow than this bike but it has great suspension - I keep telling myself off for aiming for all the lumps & bumps in the road and it's really, really comfy.

It has heated grips, too. Heated Grips - they're a bit like cheating, really!

My next door neighbour wants Artoo. No chance. She's got 2 dogs.

My mother also wants Artoo.


..I think he'd be happeir in the spider shed at the end of the garden.

........thats just cos you can't ride it right yet.;)

Had some fun with one of these:smt064 driven by an grinning old geezer (late 50's,early 80's 1piece race leathers) for a while and he could really make it shift. ****ed on my SV away from every set of lights. Sky high riding position too.

Cool bik:cool:

.....and good luck on yer wee trip.:p

Yup, I didn't go down last Friday as I'm still a bit twitchy on it filtering - esp with the panniers on....but this Friday may be a go-er!

Where you off to?

Nice cat, shame abot the bike though. I hate most beemers with a passion but if it's for off roading or trailing then it makes sense. Good luck with your adventure, wherever it may be!

All you need to do now is learn how to turn it round without fear of dropping it! Just kidding mate. Gizza go!

Ah your cat is nuttier than mine by the look of it. Nice bike and very comfy to sit on but not my kinda tool for filtering either but i'll have it if you're giving it away.

Or i can give you all the loose change and fluff i find down the back of the sofa if you prefer. Its like Deal or No Deal as i have no idea what might be bck there either and i could be giving away a fortune you know. ;)
