Hi there
recently traded in the F650 for an 03 1100S with all the goodies. Seemed a better option than the F800 I was considering. The 800 seemed really nervous and peaky and a few miles on the 1100 was all it took.
Had an 86 R100RS many years ago which i had twin-plugged and modded at great expense but the 1100 is in another league. The 20 mile commute each day almost makes my job seem worthwhile now!
Loads of questions to ask but will trawl the previos posts to see if they have already been answered. Just one for now- how do you post a piccy :?

Hi Colin - welcome to our merry band :)

Posting a piccie? You'll have to host it elsewhere (photobucket is excellent for this) from which, using the code you can see your pictures on here in all their glory.

Hope you enjoy the group - they're a great bunch on here. :)

Herzlich willkommen Colin, and why not have both an 11S and a 12S?
