There are three of us in this marriage
 

After my little off in Thailand me and my husband traded in the two hire ER6n's for one XJR 1200 so I could ride pillion. While in Thailand I could accept him swooning over the XJR, the way he lovingly stroked its shiny curves and forgave it having to be bump started every morning.

But this was a holiday romance for my husband that didn't end when we returned to England.

His BMW F650GS Dakar is now out of favour, cast aside without a second thought and it will shortly be appearing in the 'non-Sv's for sale' section (http://forums.sv650.org/showthread.php?t=147049) as yesterday he looked at this at Alpha Motors in Leigh on Sea:

I can't really compete. He has found his one true love. (But at least I may have some chance of riding the XJR as it is a lot lower than the Dakar.)

ha ha ha... excellent,

I had an xjr and loved it, just didn't get on with the handling so much. HUUUUGE seat though, enjoy.

They are a great bike - although ground clearance was a pain when "pressing-on" for me...

Gotta love the huuuuge torque of that monster engine though :)

I know how you feel... There are five of us in our relationship and I swear that Carol wants to cheat with either a new Z-thou or an old Zephur.

I feel so unloved!

Off to try and start the GTR and get it rolling again now.

He went to Thailand and fell in love with a bike?

And she is the one came back with a rash, definitely a first.

Did not know the Afrika Korps were still in existance? In Thailand! Who would have thought...;) :riding:

Nice. Lovely big solid bikes (for two too). Just need to be MADE to handle.

I remember Dan Walsh saying these bikes were "like wafting around in an old jag" :cool:

Enjoy.
