must say first change to the Fatboy - spray the back of the UK numberplate - hate the white backing on a black bike - can't believe the dealer didnt spot it!

From one Jock to another, greetings and welcome...My son spent some time in you neck of the woods during the summer...

He was on the tube in London during the bombing, one train back...As a matter of fact, he was heading towards your area for the weekend.

Lovely country...Enjoy.

Scotland!? Ain't that somewhere near North Dakota?

Glad you found the forum. This is a great place where men are men and the women scare the hell out of the men!

Welcome from Illinois. Middle of the state - middle of the country. As TerryT posted one time..."Illinois, 311 miles - 13 turns" Also we have no hills, let alone mountains. But we do have wind!
Hope to get to Scotland one day and if do will try to look you up and buy you a pint!
BTW, what is "scottoiled"? Garaged? Put up for the winter?
Sorry, but I'm an American and we don't speak English. Art
