And he's stuck his map pin up LFB (Low Flying Brick)'s exhaust!! Shocked Very Happy I figured that as this forum has unknowingly and frequently helped a new K100 owner over the last two years, I'd try and give something back. So, one more from Northern Ireland.

You are most welcome. Since you are so close to Comberjohn you most definitely one for the forum. Comberjohn is sort of responsible for the forthcoming invasion I mean visit of K bikes on Friday 19th September. At this stage I think 13 of us are booked into the Kilmorey Arms Hotel at Kilkeel, hope to be there about 7.30 to 8pm. Hope you can come along and also for Comberjohns route on Saturday 20th. Breakfast at the hotel and a nice days sightseeing. We are staying Saturday night too so dinner again. I am hoping to meet one or two more at Newcastle on Sunday morning from ABR Forum.

That's all a mouthful, but Comberjohn has been an inspiration to us. Had dinner with him in West cork the weekend before last. He gets around! If you are travelling at all we would love to meet up.

There is a great atmosphere on the forum, great technical knowledge and everyone willing to share it.

Hope to see you on 19th!

Olaf

Hello Olaf

I thank you kindly for the invitation but regretably I can't be there. I work from 15.30 to midnight for a global software company which makes weekday meets (and some weekend meets, when I'm on call) impossible to attend.

Greetings Dai welcome to the evening group therapy class. Just a word of caution you have to watch these Irish guys they have a really bad habit of having a good time when they get together.

Welcome to the forum, Dai.
With that title, I just had to look!
Whereabouts are you and what are you riding?
I'm sure I must have seen you out and about. If you ever need any help, don't hesitate to ask.

See how things work out for you. If your schedule works feel very welcome to pop over for a few minutes on the Saturday evening or Sunday morning, even if you take 4 wheels and not 2. If that doesn't work out let us know any time you are venturing out and someone is likely to meet you for a coffee.

The forum has been a great source of technical information but also good banter. We just followed the lead shown by others in Australia and elsewhere in meeting up and enjoying the company.

Enjoy the K!

Thank you Olaf.

CJ - if you see a very dirty silver, blue, white and badly-scratched K100RS then that's me. The headlights are a bit of a giveaway. I live in Clough, which is just about where your map pointer is.

We know Clough well.......my Grandfather was born not too far from there too.

Surprised you two haven't met at the local petrol station. The 'new' Maxol beside Clough Castle......

Anyway now that you have said that much hope you can make it over for a little while on the 19th.....
