Hello
Whenever I buy a bike I like to join the online forum relating to it. So - here I am!
I'm in Lancashire, England, and have just bought this with the intention of using it to commute and tour, but now I'm not sure. 10,200 verifiable miles from new on an '84 with all its paperwork, it's more like a museum piece. As a result I've bought an R1100R for the daily grind. I love the engine character, but not the vibes through the pegs, and the narrow bars give the impression that shoulder ache might set in after a while, but we shall see.
