What Have You Done To Your Tdm Today?
Quote: 

Going to just south of Oban on Saturday, then round Mull on Sunday. Staying in Acharacle on Sunday night then will see what the weather is doing before deciding where to go on Monday. It is looking like light rain at the moment

 

OK thanks, I'll keep it in mind if I get out that way, if I can suffer the shame of an having an untidy bike !

that's them AliG and Chris R, I recognise the three stacked spring washers under the mirror mounts on the blue one he hasn't had time to fix. I sent him some stainless bits to fix that.

Lee do you have any idea how many of us have zoomed in and now think you could be bullshitting? But I still believe you, if Lee don't know no-one does. Lol

He is bullshitting. They were received and fitted prior to departure, along with the titanium rear axle nut recently purchased. Both bikes ran like a dream. We went over to Mull and on to Ardnamurchan, then over to Fort William on Monday and south to Ayr. Great ride today from Ayr to Sanquhar and up the pass to Crawfordjohn, then back roads to Moffat. Final run from Moffat past St Marys Loch to Selkirk. Both bikes washed and put to bed before sampling the last 2 bottles of Dark Ale I brewed over a year ago , followed by some Scottish Heavy. Great trip. Next one will be Northern Spain at the end of June.

2004 900 - Blue with lots of goodies

2012 900 - Still adding shiny bits. Was black, changed to white and now back to black again.

They scared the crap out of me first time I saw them, driving along the motorway next to them in the fog, and two big horses heads appeared  !
