Hello to One & All...

Just signing in & touching base from a born again biker in his 60's who lives in Halesowen, West Midlands.

After an 8 year break I've decided to get on two wheels again, & take delivery later this week of an R1200GS-mk2 (09 plate)...Can't wait..

If you see on your travels a "Grey Haired, Old Git with Wrinkles".... tap me on the shoulder, speak up & introduce yourself..

All the Best,
Mike

Welcome !

Welcome Mike,
You have chosen a fantastic bike to come back biking on.
Only just sold my 09 GS, wonderful bike !
You didn't buy your bike from Clarks did you ?
Apparently they have already sold mine, it would be quite a coincidence.



Happy riding

Russell

Hi Russ,

Yes I did purchase & picked up today a 1200GS from Clark's BMW & Roy who works there said it belonged to a gent from Shrewsbury.
The registration end ----/BSX, & I bet it was yours?
