Re: Elsie

MOT time bike or car is always squeaky bum time for me.I always swore if ever I came into some money I`d buy a 1 year old car and trade up every 2 years just to avoid dreaded MOT`s.Glad the Elsie is on track :)

K & N

Can I fit this K & N filter to my 2.0 GV and if so how much of the standard box do I remove?

Re: Elsie

Is it a genuine simpson helmet? There`s me saying a 1200 bandit would be too heavy for commuting and I end up with a bloody Thunderace.Sometimes I just don`t listen to my own logic :(

Re: Elsie

I think a 1200 Bandit would be too big and heavy for my intentions.Just missed out on a mint 600 Thundercat.Would love to re kindle my love for Suzy GT500`s but they fetch silly money now.I haven`t got to start serious commuting until Feb 2016 so no panic yet.Seen a Gilera runner 200 which looks fun...

Re: Elsie

Yes you are right it was 1982 as I`d bought the RS brand new in Aug 81.I think it was the legalising of CB radio in 81.Phew I feel old :(

Re: Elsie

Yeah passed my test on the GP I got the 250RS because I thought it was a sensible upgrade rather than going for say a 550.Up until 3 years ago I had a 600 Bandit,getting a hankering for another bike now.
