After stopping motorcycling very abruptly 12 years ago, I am back on two wheels!

I shan't be scratching and hooning, I shall be pootling about like the old geezer that I am rapidly becoming :hmmm:

Return of The Martian, with a much more sedate sequel! :thumbup:

I give it 3 rides before it's on the back wheel, closely followed by an intimate encounter with a hedge.

Wheelies and hedges were never my thing, I was more stoppies highsides and encounters with things (unfortunately) much more solid than hedges.. :cry:

It'll breakdown before you hit anything with it, and it hasn't got enough power to highside

Great to see you've returned to biking and nice choice of bike, always liked that model of 900SS. Even better to have you back posting about riding (hopefully).
Fingers crossed the Duc stays running long enough for a coffee run in the sun :lol:
