i started chopping and changing after i bought that blue bike,, i was happy for a while but then realised i had two different storms so old yellow went, twice :eek2 ..

im old and wrinkly iv had to admit to myself and after the year iv had my interest in all things bikes had slipped down the drain,, but thats another story...

so lets pretend i get the blue one fixed, itl get parked and used the odd time just because it is what it is, and having spent 13 odd years racing supermotos i decided maybe that would cure the old bones with being sitty up and spark my interest again in bikes..

so iv kinda the best of both worlds, and the Dorsoduro is giving me more fun than iv had in years on bikes and not at silly speeds which is nice :thumbup:

so the worlds a good biking place once again..


ps, is it time for op scotland yet????????
I must admit I had always fancied a Supermoto myself, but it would need to be a stable mate with the Storm.

Technically I still have a storm and will probably have it until March when it'll be sold!

I'll always have wee bits in the garage :D

Who knows, maybe I'll end up really missing it and get another. I find it very easy to get cheap bikes.

Duso is a fantastic bike, and if I had permission I would have another one.
It does depend on your posture, I'd say VTR and GSXSF are completely different set ups but it's only my right knee that throbs when out for hours on the VTR. butt goes first on the other. If I decided to change 1 in a few years I know which one will be going.
Don't hassle me
I'll get there at some time

Knee first?
It's cheaper to fix on the NHS.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
