BMW are fucking clueless & I mean clueless. I sent the dealer a letter stating the usual rejection reasons & today i got a reply telling me that fucked up finance is not a reason for rejection. So I got my solicitor to send an official rejection letter on all the various grounds. He reckons once it's put legally, it will go away as she didn't even read the letter properly. Anyway, I'm in two minds. Do i plow a load of money into a KTM adventure or something like it, or do I buy a nice old Africa Twin or Transalp? Both the Hondas seem to be unburstable from many accounts. The KTM is reasonably modern, will have a warranty, but will cost more to insure & they get nicked for fun. The Transalp is a bit low in the seat & the KTM 990 Adventure S is unfuckingbelievably huge. I mean huge too. The 640 looks shite, but the 690 engine is getting fit soon. The new route costs more money too, I'm great bike mech, but the Fireblade is just such a great buy for a couple of grand. Decisions decisions.... -- 'Chill Winston.......'

I enjoyed that bit of "off-road", just the thing for a Tiger. Probably not what you wanted as just 5 mins earlier you said something about it being ok as long as you stay on good tarmac.
It was all jolly good fun. There was nothing wrong with the tarmac, as such, more the way it was piled up in to random heaps, among the gravel and the potholes. -- | ___ Salad Dodger |/ \ _/_____\_ GL1500SEV/CBR1100XXX/CBX1000Z |_\_____/_| ..88203../..24080.../..31896.
