A mate of mine who is a frequent intra state air traveller sent me this pic on the week end.

This beauty has been "parked" at the Sydney air port domestic terminal for the past 12 months.... they would probably release it to you if you paid the ouststanding parking which at last estimate is around $15,000!

It was last ridden in December 2016 - last started about a month ago. It does look a little lonely doesn't it...

Does anyone have a spare to replace the missing black plastic grill thingy just above the head light? It would look much happier without that obvious flaw!

Good man!  There was some concerned for its welfare ....

Cheers Warren - I'm more than a little concerned about having left E10 in the tank after my ride up to Noosa last year. On that trip I was lucky enough to be able to catch up with Nigel again and I got to see our Mate Tom Grabou in the flesh... Look forward to possibility of meeting you and others next time I'm over that way. I just don't want to see that Blue Bike of Ed's as that still makes me 'GREEN' - I should have let Rossko take it off me on the condition that I got right of first refusal if he departed (not that that would have been appropriate at the time....). The GOOD THING is that it is getting 'pampered' in a way that is beyond the dreams of any of my 6 K bikes.

No worries - drop us a line next time you are over this way!

Cheers Nigel - sending PM...
