Well my experiment with the Pan European proved positive. I like tourers and they commute well. So I’ve flogged the ST and bought a nice shiney new FJR. It’s black and lovely. Handling is a bit weird but I’m putting that down to newness and I’ll either get used to it or calibrate it to suit my riding style. It gets its 600 mile service tomorrow … after a week of riding.
I did like that Pan though. If youv’e never ridden one give it a go … you’ll love it.
My crashed FZ1 is all back and lovely again. Some may remember my big off before Chrismas. Ribs really do take 6 weeks to heal … in fact one of the three breaks still lets me know. Anyway you lot stay safe and don’t find out.
