Aye, we like staycations and this part of Scotland gets overlooked. Amanda and I are going to do the coastal walk that links the Forth Bridge to the Tay Bridge next year. The maritime history of Scotland is second to none.

Met this geezer too.

Fantastic pictures Chris, thanks for sharing.

So what's the verdict from Amanda on the pillion seat on your new bike?

Cheers,

Paul

Hi Chris,

Yep great pics, and like Paul, what did your better half think of the bike, and what did you think of it now it's had a decent journey? Still pleased with the choice? And go one admit it you like the gadgets it has despite your reservations ;)

Steve, I only rolled it out of the garage for a dry day photie! Still zero miles on clock. I can say that seat is just fine for Amanda and she is really pleased with luggage capacity.

I know this bike will be good the reviews are all positive. It should have been our two up choice last February when I bought the Griso, someone on site did advise me of this but I thought I knew better. Hey Ho.

Wales will be our two up test and then looking forward to our Spanish Stroll in September.

BTW It oozes quality, I am sure the paint system has improved since the BCR and maybe with the liquid cooling the paint is not subjected to very high temperatures, no flaky fins I hope!

The gadgetry did give me concerns but we have moved on :D

Hopefully the engine paint won't suffer like the water cooled GS range does, lots of new engines under warranty according to ukgser posts.
