another newbie from the states

[Adventure Len]

Hello all - It's been an interesting month here in Houston for me. I traded my 2001 R1150GS in for a brand new F800GS and got separated from my wife of 24 years. Now to the important stuff - the new 800 is fantastic!

Cheers

Too bad - i guess she didn't like change

Welcome to the site Len.
Hope you dont have any regrets letting the old girl go (the 1150 i mean)

Welcome along Les. Nice to hear that you`ve traded up to a nice new sleeker model which weighs a lot less..........

 

[Adventure Len]

Thanks all - so far no regrets about either choice. The farkeling has begun and I'm moving out today - what a life ;-)

Howdy y'all.

Nice of you to join us. Been to Houston many at time, visiting friends. I really liked that BMW dealer up north on I-45 but they didin't stay open very long for some reason.
Do Touratech do a gun rack for an 800

Ah - thanks so much fatboy - the first two weeks were pretty numb but the riding the new bike helps - keeps a smile on my face
