Not sure what section to post this in so please move if it is wrong (Admin) My brother in law had this bought for him at Xmas, it is to large for him and he has asked me to sell it on ebay, anyway i thought it better to offer here first as it is a bargain at £300 plus postage, it cost his wife over ...

The Kylesku Hotel is ace, you get well looked after in there, we used to fill the place on some of the tripos i used to organise for the Aprilia lads/lassies. Great selection of single malts and wicked langoustines http://homepage.ntlworld.com/p.dezeeuw/SOT21369.JPG If you are anywhere near that sig...

Excellent, looks like some of those photos were taken on what is part of the North Coast 500 Route, might be worth a trip one day. /index.php/topic,1759.msg13549.html#msg13549 Yes, it is, if you need any info on routes etc. just ask as i have travelled those roads many times, luv it up there :) Get...

Have you checked anything yet, steering head bearings, steering damper, brakes binding/sticking piston in caliper etc?

First port of call for me would be check the steering head bearings, if it is notchy that will give you this feeling, also check the steering damper is functioning smoothly

Cracking bike and must be worth hanging on to. Not many around in those colours OG, tiz a lovely bike, might just keep it :whistle: Just ...
