Re: Hi from Northern Ireland.
Evening folks,
Thanks for your kind words of welcome. I would describe myself as a long time Honda HRC race rep fan. In recent years as I have got older/more mature I have graduated towards the sports touring motorcycle market. I have owned most V-Four engined Hondas. Following a disastrous experience with a Honda VFR1200 used unsuccessfully for two up touring a mate made me ride his 2012 BMW R1200RT. I was smitten and bought a 2013 BMW R1200RT 90 year edition model with less than 2,900 miles. We kept that for nearly nine years before trading it in for a new BMW R1250RT LE Sport in Racing blue. Fully loaded. Hopefully this will live up to my expectations.
If you have heard of the North West 200 motorcycle races in Northern Ireland I live three miles from the “closed roads” race circuit.
Hopefully it will be run this year. Hiked liability insurance premiums are causing funding problems at this time. (March 2023).
Regards,
Weebiggles.
