Lucky escape
« on: September 02, 2018, 14:10:44 »
I've been riding my Blackbird for over 10 years all over Europe accident free. Yesterday some twat dented my shiny new 650xt. If it hadn't been for the crash bars I'd have my leg in plaster. I wouldn't have got away so lightly on the Blackbird. Thank you Suzuki for the free touring accessory pack.

Glad you're OK  :thumb: I know it's frustrating but the bike can be fixed.
