First ride for 8 years and I spend the day on my new (new to me) Monster 750. After 200 miles, I ache like a bitch, I'm physically and mentally spent, but it's a little beauty! Happy days!! :smt003

8 years is a long lay off. Any how welcome back to the joys of motorcycling.

i know the feeling GinMonster althou i have had bikes for most of the loast ten years they have all been cheap and boring commuter bikes, when i got my falco a few weeks ago it reminded me just how much i love having a decent bike even if after riding her for about four hours my arse was disagreeing lol

OOPS!
Apologies Ginmonster for the crap stereotyping on my part, but then if I'd seen 'ache like a bitch' as an inferencece, then would I have also been stereotyping ?
Main thing is grin inducing ride, thats what we like !

Oddly we both fancied the Yamaha Fatuglystupidfuckwit until we spent the day with Flatlander.
Congrats on getting back on two wheels GinMonster.

Stereotype, scmereotype - a biker's a biker! (even when they're a triker)
