Yes we are the few
Hello UK XS650 fans. Are there really that few of us ?
very sorry to hear that Funky it seems that everyone I know is caring for an elderly or sick relative at the moment.Yes peanut I have been caring for my mother she passed away on the 11th Jan has been unwell for about 3 years ....life goes on and all that lost touch with most things but getting back in the swing of things
Welcome Adrian .....I think there may be more of us than you think but most just lurk what part of the UK you in ?
Funky !.....where you bin buddy ? haven't heard from you for a while .
One more here, up in Yorkshire. Been a lurkio myself for about 6 months, there must be a lot more people watching these forums from the U.K. but not registered. There seems to be a lot xs650’s been imported judging by the evil bay ads.....
Hi nice part of the World Portsmouth. I'm hoping one day that we can have a South West meetup at one of the Classic bike shows maybe . lets see a piccy of your steed AdrianHello, down on the South Coast just north of Portsmouth
I might if I can get the car . The Missus has our only road legal car a the moment. I only get the car occasionally for Doctor and Hospital appointmentsIt's in weather like this I'm glad I also have a car. I was going and now will be going to Shepton Mallet - on the good side I used this weekend to sort out my new LED tail light and indicators
Still got plenty more jobs to do ....
See you in Shepton in a few weeks' time?
Hi Chish n Fips lots of XS650 up there in Yorkshire ...mind you you have some fantastic roads up there.
Prices for bikes and parts are getting to silly levels this past couple of years.
Unfortunately the result of that is lots of bikes get bought up to strip and sell for parts because you can make a tidy profit in the long term. This then makes certain models scarce which puts the price up to levels where kids cannot afford to get a foot on the ladder to classic bike ownership. More bikes get left in the garage because they are to valuable for general hacking about and so it goes on.
Shove a piccy up of your bike when you get a chance
Hi Daniel good to hear from you .
Beautiful part of the World you live in, we often take mini breaks down your way .
Your bike looks pretty much together ...what do you still have left to do ?
