... is an Indian dealer somewhere near Bewdley ish.

Also dealer for Royal Enfield, CFmoto, Voge amongst others. Interesting bikes for sure. My mate wanted to look at a bsa, but they've parted company so it was a wonder about.

The 650 Enfields have plenty of options and in my opinion some are pretty awful. The classis, meteor and shotgun all looked pretty nasty, the best by a long way were the continental gt, interceptor and the bear i no particular order, some nice colour schemes aswel.

My mate loved the bear but I was very taken by the Guerrilla 450. Lovely looking thing, nice colours, tiny end can stock, little narrow thing. I'm told they make about 40bhp and a chap told me they pull well as they are lighter than the 650, it's possible.

The bear also has a short can which makes a big difference to the appeal for me. The Indians and the shotgun 650 have great big long shit thing's, look bloody awful.

Anyway, planning on a test of both the 650 bear and the 450 Guerrilla. Its a nice shop with a cafe and seemed pretty busy.

Almost forgot, the Voge 300 looked a solid, tidy bike but I wasn't so convinced the the bigger (900 I think). It just looked a bit cheapo. Cf moto mt 700 also looked cheapo in the flesh. The Morbidellos the same.

So, if I was after something from that side of the world it would definitely be an Enfield or a Voge 300 for playing off road.

You got lucky, Tenbury is normally gridlocked on the day of our country show, but someone somewhere has pulled their thumb out of their ass and the traffic is flowing fine.

And the Kabin do a decent brekkie, one of my two local choices along with Dom's bikestop if I'm feeling peckish before getting home.

Agree about MWM, it's a nice little dealership, only bummer is that they aren't open on a Sunday.
