some pics from yesterday

just thought I'd post some pics of yesterday's ride :) did just over 80 miles down to Riders in Bridgewater and back, nice and steady on the way then a blast on the way back. excellent weather...and no bugs which is the great thing about this time of year!

this bandit is still surprising me...I'm so used to riding the 600 that the torque of this one scares me! if I flick my wrist in any gear, even top, it surges off and really does have some incredible power! after today's spirited blast I think I'll hold on to this for a while...it's got a hell of an engine in it and is easily as quick as most sportsbikes (according to reviews anyway...I'm not good enough to try for myself lol).

anyway here are the pics...the bonnie is the father-in-law's :) loving the polished rims on the bandit's wheels in the sun, and the chrome bits really look great - just a pity my phone pics don't do it justice!

Nice i took some pics on my 130mile ride yesterday i maywell post em up later :)

Paul, where did you go for that kind of distance?

Dabz, cool pictures! :)

Ive been there before, good dealer and a stockist of ours. Bikes look nice and clean.

I went from drugby-daventry-banbury-stratford-pretty route to mum and dads then my fav road from there to home :):):)

I went out on Sunday, too. Went out to Shaftsbury and up to Sherness. Went into a pub there and I think I walked into an episode of the Archers! However the weather was great and manged to have a bit of blast even with my other half on the back!

did you have a gander at the new trumpet 675 there Paul (pic 2)??

i saw a couple out last weekend en route to boxhill, one grey, one gold. Have to admit, the gold one did look the better which surprised me as i preferred the grey one when i saw it at the NEC

I did have a quick ganders i thought it was really nice, the bloke had all triumph leathers on aswell but i didnt speak to him tbh.
