    Dear stunningly wonderful Willie , soooooooo glad you're back . Did you know I'm in Cornwall ? Well I am . And it's petrifyingly cold so I need to wear a jumper in the house , which is enormously inconvenient , but but but , it's cold enough to keep the horrid crocodiles away who are after my pie and chips at 20 quid a plate . When you move , please make the scratch repaired Bonneville available soon as possible, I have to give the marvellously sublime fatbob back . Did I tell you that it's absolutely the best bike I've ever ridden ? Might see you at the distinguished hamster barbeque ride . Your modest chum . Freddie Hamster . PS . Can you operate a sewing machine ?

    I think many of us have had a Wayne-Rob moment; 'another terrific story Willie. As far as static drops are concerned, almost all of my bikes have been scraped or scratched by friends, parking attendants or security guards who disregarded my advice, "No, let me do that, there's a knack to it." For example, the two Vespa PXs I owned were naturally weighted to the right side and would always catch out an unwary 'helper' who slipped them off the main stand.

    What a great bunch of buddies. Reminds me of the old days with my friends. You know, I think KZread has kinda filled that hole for me. Since I moved to California I've only met one guy who was a close friend and unfortunately when my gal finished residency we moved about 12 hours away from him. My lifelong friends are a couple thousand miles from me now. You and Mr TAYM have become buddies, whether you like it or not. 🤣 Cheers Willie! 🍻 Best of luck with the move!

    "Just once - three or four times..." 😂. Dropped my 1200RT on Ashbourne market place 😬. A bloke who'd just got off a ZZR1400 rushed over and nearly caught us. Kel's did a Command roll off the back. I lifted it back up like it was nothing due to the adrenaline. Put the sidestand down and walked away. Half a pint later returned to find hardly any damage - just a scuffed engine protector 😊

    Crash bars always first mod.Oil stain on smooth concrete at petrol station & put foot in it.Or oill,water on shed floor is another & common spots to drop bikes getting them in & out clip mirror on wall etc. Also your panniers hold bike up off ground 5-6inches which also helps as long as crash bars.Bar end caps usually get scuffed.You were lucky that your panniers held bike up a few inches otherwise gear lever or brake will dig into engine casings & scuff them up or worse a gouge.Put your wet weather over pants 👖 in one pannier & coat or tools in other pannier so have that extra room between bike & ground uf goes over. I always get bike out of shed for someone else cause that's where it will get dropped most likely or at gas ⛽ station. Sean will wait for you to get bike out next time if you let HIM near it again.Alot of drops in sheds happen cause your relaxed & at home & may not be wearing propper footwear etc that's why drops in shed happen.

    @@2wheeledwillie395 I know right. It is most definitely a separate part made of powder coated steel vs the brushed stainless of the exhaust. For comparison a similar part on the Interceptor is about £12. It even has a slotted fixture for adjustment. I asked them if they'd consider a goodwill gesture and provide one for me. Firm "No". So I accused their after sales as being manned by lawyers and accountants instead of motorcycle enthusiasts. I hope that hit a spot. I was furious as you can tell. Would I ever have another Triumph again after that? Absolutely, a T100 Stealth please 😂😂

    Good to have you back fella 😊. I've been out most of the day today "tyre kicking". Mainly RE & Triumphs. Ironically, the bike that felt just right was a T120 Black! Bars, seat to peg angle, flat footed ect ect. But then again others felt good too 🤦‍♂️. Speed Twin, Street Twin, Shotgun, Interceptor, even the Hunter & the T400x! Such a dilemma Willie 🤷‍♂️ Just what do l trade in the ZZR1400 for?? 😫. Best regards, Mo 😊👍
