Great little pony!

[MotoRandy123]

Well I like getting good gas mileage so wouldn't go much above 650cc's. Kawasaki just came
out with a 300 that looks good and Honda has some new 500's and the NX700 which is supposed
to do well on fuel mileage. I say go for it! Someone has to keep the economy going (that used to
be me!).

Hey there Moto. Well, cards on the table  mate... this is what I've been looking at ...

[Hairy Bob]

But, then again ... look what I just bought for the pony. And it's even the same gear as the rack bag my girl bought me 

[MotoRandy123]

I know it's tough. I once had 6 bikes in my stable. I sold them all to get married then had to
have at least one. So I got a BMW F650GS. Then lost my job so went to a Yager 200i. But a
few have snuck into the garage (BMW K75 and 2 1960's Honda Cubs ((but they hardly count!))).

Once it gets in your blood you're hooked! I come by it honestly as my Grandma rode back in the
30's and our family has been on 2 wheels ever since!

That's exactly it Moto ... I just need a bigger bloody shed, hey !
Cheers mate,

Well ... I don't know if this was a message from the Boss upstairs or not, but cop this gang. I was supposed to take a certain new 650 for a test ride last Wednesday. It was all booked, and I'd even taken the day off work especially for it. But come Wednesday morning, those big black clouds rolled up, and it absolutely pissed down, and I mean pissed down all bloody day, no bullsh**. So I spent the day setting up the anchor points on the pony for the new saddlebags I'd just bought.  And you know what ... it all looks and works a bloody beauty. So if that ain't some sort of message, I don't know what is. So, just to be on the safe side, I'm keeping the little pony. I don't want to be causing no hellfire and brimstone now do I. Not that I really wanted to get rid of her anyway, she's a damn good little bike and does me just fine. The only way I would get another bike is if I got a bigger shed, and could keep both. ( You're a bloody genius Moto  )
Anyway, it's shaping up in to a top day here, so I'm off for a nice little ride on the pony right now. Hope it's the same for you guys.
Ride safe,
Best regards,
The Bobster.

Don't you worry yerself Vivo, the pony stays ol mate. Infact, I'm going to forget about other bikes for a long time. That little pony gallops along strong as a brumby, no worries at all. Had another exellent little ride this morning in fact, down the coast for a while, then loop back up through them thare hills. Bloody beautifull !!  As old uncle Lez'd say .. " you wouldn't be dead for bloody quids, would ya "
Hey, do you want a GOODTIME sticker for your scoot Vivo ?  Email me your postal address if you do mate, and I'll send you one.
Regards,
Hairy Bob.

true that Bob and everyone, the more i ride it the more its pulling you in. got the windscreen fitted, channels slightly more wind to the head but i wear a full helm so it does not bother too much, but the chest surface is feeling very nice not a lot of wind but still enough to cool me down.
Pulling through gears better as well at high speed. it was a good add on after all. will get photos today and post them for ya guys.
