I agree with ya there but I do like the sound of that V-4 baby block. I hope that engine doesn't fade from existence!!!!

Can we make a new rule that there be a warning before Marvin post so we don't automatically puke on our keyboards.... How about a block button so we don't ever have to be bothered again...

Or an auto-ban? The misinformation he's spouting is potentially dangerous.

Not much of a worry there, I don't think anyone pays attention to anything Marvin says anymore.
Now back to Mike's bike . . . +1000 on Hyperr's suggestion of a GS Adv. Perfect for them long US freeways, plus there are more places to greenlane in the US than the UK.

Wish I could fit on it, but I just can't, it's too small of a frame for my frame.

I can just get on a few of the Triumph models (ie, T100, Adventure and the cruisers). Would be neat to have a Triumph here for sure.

Professional tag-a-long, if it wasn't for Andrea's job I'd still be in Canada.

It is really neat living and seeing other countries but there is no truer line than "Home Sweet Home" or "There's no place like home". Right now we are in a hotel trying to find a place to live, a car to buy and loads of paperwork like bank accounts, gov't forms, etc. Not super fun really, but the weather is nice here in Houston with +86°F (27°C)

Marvin has been banned for failing to provide much to the community in terms of friendly, useful or helpful posts, you won't be hearing from him again for a while.

Great bike, I really like it myself as well, but can't fit on it, although, Andrea does and likes it, but there is no non-Ethanol gas sold at all in Texas (so that idea is scrubbed as the tank expands if you use it).
Still have to sort our licence out should be able to do so as soon as we have time to visit a DMV office. Hopefully we can convince them to swap over our UK/Canada licence for a US one and not under go all the re-testing again.
