Futura Newby

#1 Post by D-Rider » Fri Jul 14, 2017 9:28 am

Hi everyone

I'm the new boy on the block - I bought my Futura last Sunday and have spent the week getting acquainted with it.
It's a bit rough around the edges but I'll sort things out bit by bit. It came with a bit of a battered set of panniers, a Hepco & Becker rack (and 52 litre top box) and a bagster tank bag. Not as capacious as the car but not bad load lugging capability for a bike!

Remember, when you are dead, you do not know you are dead. It is only painful for others.
The same applies when you are stupid.

Yeah ..... though I thought I'd better pop in here and wake the other Futura riders from their afternoon nap.
