Cracking ride out via Seaways and on to Scarborough - however - Couldn't believe the amount of salt that had clung to the bike after a dry ride.




Leafblower to blow any traces of salty water after rinse-muc off-rinse-shampoo-rinse and finally a good leathering off!

Four is fun.  Six is sex.

It's been a while since I've been to Seaways I must return and have one of their breakfasts again soon.

getting on now...  but not as old as Rog or Geoff

They're a BMW approved accessory at £1800.00!

Price aside, I don't like them - I prefer the standard GT ones.  The GTL has a chrome finish to them, which I don't like as much as the brush stainless on mine.

The standard ones sound awesome in any case!
