Back on two wheels
After a year off bikes because I needed a car at the time, I finally got fed up with Birmingham traffic and bought a 400cc Suzuki Burgman scooter and it's ace
I chose it for practicality as it's just for commuting, it's got decent weather protection, plenty of storage and enough oomph for the motorway too and I'm not going to have time for pleasure rides for the next couple of busy years anyway. I parked it at work in a bike shed full of sports bikes and it stood out as the biggest thing in there Pics to follow later tonight.

the bigger 650cc version came with the food hotplates..... heated seats and grips.
I tested out the weather protection today on the ride home from work, stayed mainly dry from the waist down but I found I need a new jacket as it leaked like I may as well have not bothered with it. booked a full clean and treatment for Friday with the allyearbiker.co.uk people.

Re: Back on two wheels
I used the guy in Worcester. it was a very thorough. I didn't do any before and after pics as it was pretty tidy when I took it anyway. a good guy and I'd recommend him.Kwacky wrote:Which allyearbiker bloke are you using?
