Congratulations!

I know you've been looking for quite a while; well done!

You do realise you'll need one of these now (and it matches the bike)

You woundn,t believe this mart, but I have been thing of that for years as well!, love the smell of a lot of pipe tabacco.
I may well get a pipe to match the bike & my slippers!
Hope to see you soon to compare notes :smt003

You going to be spoilt for choice now. I reckon the Futura must be a bit of a cross between my Falco and BMW 1000RS. That'd be a real nice bike. :smt001

Thanks Dave, Falco is a keeper, wife won,t let me sell it, says she don,t care if it stays forever & we just have it to look at :smt007
Havn't ridden the Futura yet, havin to wait until the insurance is up for renewal in 6 weeks to get this years no claims discount, or pay 70 quid to add it to existing for 6 weeks....mmmmmmm I'll wait.

As for pictures, I have never been able to get the bloody things to work on here, so........

I have already got slippers and I really did order a pipe yesterday to go with it so, when we next all meet, me & martdude may be like twins.
( however I will be the one arriving on time- sorry mart!)

Photobucket is really easy. Use a browser to upload straight from your PC. Then it gives you a link to paste into the forum with the tags already done.
