Welcome back.

Let us know if you get the bike on Tuesday and we'll meet up soon.

Didn't work out unfortunately so still looking.

Thanks for replying.

Haven't got one really. Sensible money for right bike but needs to be nice. Obviously don't want to be paying dealer money if it can be avoided.

Anyone thinking of selling or trading?

Usual stuff; well presented, sensible miles and good service history.

Thanks.

Hi David and thanks for the info. Would be good to get out and about with the NMs again.

Howdo Michael. Look forward to that if things pan out.

Been a while but looking to reacquaint with an RT, which, for me at least, is probably 'the better bike'. Going to look at a very nice 2012 MU on Tuesday. Always had SEs before and just wondering what the difference in spec is. Would love to join you folks on your foreign jolly but sadly have to lim...

Sent by email. Thanks.

As things stand, I know I'm going to struggle with a full day event, especially in this heat. Rather than cancelling at the last minute, I'm wondering if someone else will take this ride on as it will be a good un. Sorry to bale but health and safety come first. The situation may improve as the seas...

I highly recomend the B1248 :thumb: Yes, know that road, it's a good un. Scrap that! I won't be able to make it! Just been told that I'm at my niece's 18th birthday party the night before! I don't think I will be in a fit state to ride Fair enough. Maybe next time. Hopefully later on, looking at th...

Some good roads there too although sledmere to Garton I would give that a miss as its just a straight bumpy road

Thanks for that, can't beat local knowledge. Can see a couple of work arounds. Be good to meet if you can make it.
