I can't bring myself to drive it anymore since my 750's been running so well! Thanks a lot everybody!

What 80% chance of rain? ... NO ... 20% chance of NO RAIN! Good enough for me!

Cars are for hitching a trailer to when you need to move more than one bike!
In the UK anything over 40 years old only needs insurance and Fuel.

Ever since I got the 350f legal, I only use my car MABE twice a month. I don't even care if it rains! Of course, when you own a joe rocket; nolan full-face, and a big shield, you generally dont pay attention to all that rain bullcrap :D.....

cheers;

I feel your pain.
I have a pristine 1955 Bel-Air that waS driven last night for the 1st time in a month, becasue the CB takes up most of my time, and gets driven 10 to 1 over the 55..
Not to worry, the new motor for the car will get me back into it next season  ;D ;D ;D

 Here in New England it has been raining a LOT,
but I still can't afford to drive the Ford F150 at 11-13mpg, so onto
the cb550 I go.
yeehaw

I bought a VFR800 in April and have clocked up 4000 miles since then.

0 miles on my Jag.

The 500/4 does 100 miles or so on each sunny Sunday - including this Sunday to the 70's day at the Ace Cafe.

My dog loves me for the person I try to be.  Either that or he's hungry.
