Nice picture, taken near my favourite watering hole near the stream. Been going up there for nearly 30 years now and still love it.

I've probably got photo's of all my bikes somewhere around that spot.

No doubt I'll see you at Rivvy Barn sometime in the future as I live locally in Ramsbottom.

Hi Geoff,
I too have taken a few pix of my bikes at this same spot. It's lovely place isn't it? I was up at Rivington Barn yesterday - great biking day and hundreds of ppl there.

Look out for me when you next go.

It was on the bike when I got it about a month ago, so I don't know what it costs. It's the Boxercup replica belly-pan.

I think it is the one on this site: http://www.boxerstyle.de/
Price is €195

Without nipping out to a cold garage............. is that the way the front tyre tread is meant to face?

Could be just a function of too much cider? :occasion5:

May I record my appreciation for Throttlemeister's bike with the neat belly pan. Perhaps it had a thread of its own and I missed it.

The belly pan I had on my own R110S can be seen in the smaller pic here: viewtopic.php?t=4278

Mad - the pic of Bowland is lovely :)

Thanks. :) It did have a thread, but it is probably sunk down into the archives.

Just fitted a Sargent Seat. Bought it from Nippy Norman (although the delivery was far from nippy!)

:D Mad dog! Super pic of your bike and of course the best colour !! :lol: (I've a 2003 the same colour) 8) 8)

Is the new seat lower, the same height or is it just more comfortable :?:

I'm in two minds as to replacing my standard seat as I find it very hard.

Your opinion and any others would be welcome! :P
