Its done (new bike)
« on: April 11, 2022, 18:29:43 »
Hello Folks,

Well after 12 years bikeless I paid a deposit on a 21 pre reg vstrom 650 today. Got it for a great price so more than happy. Just have to wait on delivery next week.

Welcome back to biking and a good choice of bike. Biking has changed over the past 12 years, it's just got better. Enjoy.   :thumb:

Fingers crossed the weather is fine and dry for your first ride.
This doesn't last forever, so do it while you can.

 :text-bravo: Hope you enjoy as much as I’m currently enjoying mine. I did 15 years without riding. Way way too long an absence from biking
The force is Strom in this one.
