Newbie from Harrogate

Post by mevsyd »

Hi, I'm Martin from Harrogate. Stumbled across this site when looking for info on my R1 that I thought was overheating. I'm not good with spanners and stuff but was going on a 900+ miler around Scotland the next day so was looking for info. Anyways, thought I would introduce myself..

Chhers for the welcome! Hada great time up there. There is a bunch of us that do it twice a year and even though the roads are great, the weather can be a bit hit and miss...

This is mine after a good clean!
