There seems to be some cyber terrorism world wide at the moment. Even large multi national companies are loosing their servers too. Just be patient & I'm sure it will soon be sorted.
As far as pillion is concerned, I can't get my missus on the cane. She hates the way it feels. She did however love my old bike. CB 1100f. I must admit I miss it too sometimes.

There's alot to be said for the good old f-h. Reliable, comfy and above all, a pleasure to ride. I love taking girls on the back. Looking out the window at the mo and I feel another ride coming on.

When I bought mine, the previous owner's wife was pretty pissed off at him for selling the CBR. He had been thinking about swapping it with his dad's ST 1100, but the wifey said "definately NO!", she was more comfortable on the CBR, and she was not a small lady, believe me!

My wife has ridden the back of my '87 since I first bought it new. She's fallen asleep back there several times.

Oh, and the 400 four is one of my all time favourite bikes.Your dad has good taste in wheels.

I must admit,I'm very pleased that neither of my two kids are interested in getting a bike. I have mixed feelings about my wife wanting to get her licence. Very much a "do as I say" not "do as I do" sorta thing.
