Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
... the box is very missed. Still a fun ride . I do enjoy this bike, it really gets you engaged with the ride to get things going lol, but still love getting back on the Beemer. Gave the YZ a quick clean up, not done since last outing and falling off at Ashdown the other weekend.

Day 12 Ravensburg - Landstuhl Not too many pictures as we were all getting worn out and just wanted to get there, yet again it was HOT! But we did a bit of the B500 and stopped here for drinks and a browse of the tourist trap. https://i.imgur.com/dZJlBWS.jpg ...

... Day 1 https://i.imgur.com/MNIxXJy.jpg Bit of a whirlwind on day 1 and it was HOT! on both sides of the channel, it was all about getting to that hotel for a shower and something cold to drink. We then had a bit of a walk to a local restaurant for dinner.

Sadly there's only one Party that's committed to doing that and they don't stand a chance of getting into power.

Took the 765 out for a little run yesterday before a good wash. I am really enjoying this bike, it is so responsive, plus I am getting used to riding it, its a big difference to riding the S1 with all that power on tap. I forgot how much engine braking you have with a triple. I find myself ...
