Quite a few years ago I think elf&safety dictated that our local bus drivers should wear clip on ties after an irate colleague dragged the driver that had cut him up out of his window and tied him on the mirror arm.
Some helpful passenger on the bus got off to untie him ! :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

My mate had one once was like sitting in a big comfy armchair, none the wonder the despatchers like them :smiley:

Trouble is that they had a poxy tank capacity and had to be filled up 3 times a day. I would just fill up once and get 22 litres in the GT550 :wink:

And spend your life saving up for the front discs :laughing: They have to be among some of the most knacjered bikes after being on the circuit that you will ever come across, but they did eclipse the cx in the end

My Mobylette would ■■■■ all over any of those bikes.

Don’t know about a tie Harry, that looks more like cravat, safari suit and hush puppies territory !
:laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

Suitable neck attire is essential on Harleys, as my mate Dave is modelling… :wink:

… I prefer a couple of extra layers meself!

Nah, just dropping the odd front pad when they got a bit thin :laughing:

So after getting some insurance money on a rear-end shunt, I bagged a GT750 instead. On town work that ate pads every 6-8 weeks, on distance though it was much better (had about 270k by the time I’d finished with it). Don’t miss the rotted Kawasaki green :grimacing: wiring though.

(Don’t remember ever wearing a tie of any sort though)
