Maybe you should be looking for a slight smaller / lighter bike mick? Maybe something like a CB550? ;-) ha ha

[hairygit]

Give me the moto gutless and £1000 and you can have my chicken chaser, totally reliable, run forever, cheap for consumables, and even Julie would find it easy to pick up!

Deffo the Honda as it seems to have fixed its self
My Guzzi has been good I covered a massive 1000 miles last year.

Time for a full rebuild then

I know I'm on borrowed time its covered 5000 miles in the last 8 years 

[hairygit]

And how much has it cost you in repairs for the time you've had it? £1 per mile, or more!

Have you got one by any chance James I am thinking of getting one for the right price 

[JamesH]

Quite possibly mick. You know where I am...ring me and I'll cut you a special deal..:-)

Only about £250 in the last 1000 miles

My good lady is watching a programme on all4 at the moment that sums you up, "one born every minute"

Yes Hairy, I'm sure I would be OK with that

I don't know how to respond to that  coming from someone that rides a granny shopper

I have no choice sadly, blame arrogant consultants in the N.H.S. for leaving me in a state where riding my 750F1 is a physical impossibility

Mick you didn't tell us what was wrong with the 750? We're all curious to know

I let go my VFR750 once. I can't pick that up on my own either Moreover, I think the CB750 weighs about the same so I understand 

[Green1]

I havn't a clue what was wrong with it I have since run it up to temprature and all seems OK apart from a slipping clutch now when I give it the beans.

Bugger forgot about that 2 wheels are better than no wheels

[hairygit]

Very true, I Can't physically sit down, so driving a car is out of the question too! Anyway, I think we've hijacked this thread enough for today!
