Default TD's Yamathing Shows In UK

Since GR Brown isn't riding a Harley or producing pictures of any Harley projects, I'm going to go with GR purchased TD's Yamathing and cruising the UK countryside proudly on the Maroon and Gold scooter. What led me to this conclusion was GR is in the Suspension Forum debating Ohlins for Yamaha's, since GR is one of longest running Evo forum members, out of respect we should still treat him as one of us.

Comments welcome on what went wrong with him.

In his defence he still rides not one but two of Milwaukee's finest - a Harley and a Buell - and one day, who knows......

Hyacinth is boxed in at present, so inaccessible, Sporty is in the way, on a jack. Buttercup has nice new Avons, recently fitted, in readiness for the new riding season, also a swish new adjustable windshield. Sporty has a new front tyre, awaiting a new rear. Don't ya just luv modern Harleys that need a 'special' metric spanner - er wrench, just to get the rear axle out?! It's in the post. Bikes have a brand spanking new gps to share......

I know Hyacinth is taking her time, but the US Government signed off on a metrication law back in 1975 and still hasn't implemented it, otherwise one my older wrenches might have worked. That's my yard-stick, so I still got time in hand......

Thanks! When I started riding the Jap bikes had only just come on the market, also their first cars. They were so awful, all of them, that I had no wish to own one and haven't done so to date. Do you realise they mostly still use chains? Of all things - still in the stone age. Yuk! Not much risk of me buying one now!
