Returning to the fold

[coastrider]

Hi all
I sold my last, blue, gtr in 2012 then missed it quite a bit.
Now I have landed a 2012 blue gtr to take its rightful place in the garage. Picking it up Saturday all being well.
Looking forward to getting back in the groove.

Welcome,  welcome. What did you have in-between the two GTR's if indeed anything?

[coastrider]

In between the GTR's I have had the following;
An Aprillia RSV mille to play on. Loved it but needs to be ridden way too fast to enjoy its capabilities.
I also tried a Triumph Sprint GT which was good but bland, then I got a Kawaskaki Z1000SX which I still have and will be selling to replace with the GTR. The SX is a brilliant all rounder and a very competent bike but I miss the luxury of the GTR along with its own take on all rounder. When I had my last one I quite often got the comment that a bike that big shouldn't be able to do that!!
Bring it on back

Welcome, yes the GTR is certainly special, often a surprise to those who don't understand it or know what it can do. Hooligan to armchair dependent on my mood. Great.

Well that was a baptism of fire. Tested the bike and got it home blessed by 37 mph winds and 50 mph gusts.
Good to be back on board though
