So, I'm finally (officially) a "tosser"!!

Post by BigDan1190 » 20 Sep 2015, 22:08

After 4 years of wanting a GS Adventure (preferably a twin cam, but whatever...) I'm finally in position to get one and today I did just that! I'm like a pig in the proverbial.

Pics;

How it looked when I got home;

And some general picture-whoring;

Seller was a good chap who not only made it a nice and easy process, even picked me up from the train station and adjusted the gear lever for me!

Nice ride home through Barnard Castle and the Dales;

Only thing was trying to stop as little as possible, I got knocked off my Bandit last Friday by a car and my knee is ruined so once it was in a bearable position on the bike I had to just keep it there! Glad the bike didn't lean to the left unexpectedly.

First thoughts - I see why there is a stigma about tossers not indicating... the indicator buttons are stupid!

Overall, I'm a very happy chap.

you are only a tosser when you stick your high beam on and ride around blinding every other poor fucker on the road.
