I might hold you to that! I always thought if I found a nice 250 at the right place, I might snap it up... Strange how the 535 looked like a ridiculous baby cruiser while the ridiculous baby cruiser actually looked more convincing

No problem! Yep, I had a 535 for a short time but sold it on - too many mechanical probs. The 125 has never missed a best though, they are great bikes, and fun to ride. Look like a big bike too.

I thought Northy's garage would need to be bigger!

Nah, my garage is tiny, and half full of other stuff too- see that heap by the door? It goes all the way back. When the virago was in there too I couldn't get into the garage at all, I had to drag the bikes out from in front by the handlebars

I can just about walk around the SV when it's in there by itself.

How'd it go? Is Mr Shonadoll running after you? When you back on your feet/the bike etc. Anything we can do for you?

Thankyou! It went well thanks- apart from the fact there was a screw free floating inside it. Bloody doctors.Mr Shonadoll being very Martha Stewart, and being a good slave.
