Two very nice looking bikes there. I’d love to have a supermoto in the stable... one day!

The larger supermotos are a pure tit of a thing to ride

Slowly making progress with getting bits together for a day of multiple engine swaps. Figured out how to use my new toy, a bore gauge, and measured up an engine I've been meaning to get back together for ages. Bores and pistons with in service limits and small end pins too. The bearings are OK but I'll be replacing them. I might as well as I'm the deep in plus some have been scratched in storage. I just need to get the front mounts welded up and it's good to go back together.

Got myself a little plodder that’ll be living in Devon.



Looking forward to a nice ride down in a couple of weeks, then using it for rides with my BiL on his R80.

What a great pick up. Looks just about mint. Is that ONLY 10,000 miles?

Yes, picked it up with just under the 10000. Goes well, not the barge I was expecting to be honest. It’s comfortable two up which is the reason for having it, and it’s not going to get that much mileage stuck on it as we’re only down there 5 or 6 times a year in normal circumstances. Happy chappy

Snap!

Thanks for the advice John

If it hasn't already got an aftermarket can / or you want a bit more of a burble* then this is a good value SS replacement with removeable baffle and fits with the pannier racks.

*with the baffle in sounds stock and without not VTR loud! but a bit more burbly.
