so i had to sell the "F"and buy a bird.
i wil/do miss my "F" so much, but i have to move on.

i bought a 1 owner from new 2004 in silver.
full yearly service history (documented) last 3 with less than 100mile between them.
virtually factory roll out condition
tiny (fall-over) bobbins fitted.
only 5,680miles on it with every MOT present.
cat1 datatool alarm
new back tyre, front is 7 years old and will need changed due to age of it anyway.
Mot 3 weeks ago and taxed for a year.

pic took in the dark so i'll get pics up when i collect it,, and give it a good valet.

wee Question,, was thinkin of just a 1helmet top box(with a wee bit of room for nik-naks ) maybe 30L ,,,,, would that be right.??
and does it affect them with handling in any way.?

clear indy's (maybe bar risers) and a MRA screen,, then just keep it the way it is otherwise.
i'v no interest in changing exhausts or seat covers etc

comments welcome as i don't know a thing about the bird's

 

I turned on the light and what did I see
Great bike Ken !

 

I think you hit the nail on the head. That's all I would do to her. She's beautiful just the way she is.
On the box.. I usually just carry a backpack for short trips, and then I have some Nelson Rigg soft saddle bags for the longer rides. 19.9L on each side and you can haul a lot of stuff in them.

 

That's a sexy bike. Just sayin.

 

So next time I'm over chum - ya gonna let me try her out ?
You can try the K1300S I'll be hiring out

Verrry nice Ken and quite the bargain

 

thanks lads,
*just rang the owner last night, and was going to run up today for it,,
but he did mention when i was up last thursday that he was after a last minute holiday and just got one on sunday and was heading to the airport today.
he's got a deposit and sound as a pound, so i'm in no hurry to go the 60 mile up again to get it in the pissing rain. .. but it will be a good run home getting used to it.
he's away for two weeks.. so i'll pick a dry day when the wife is free to drive the van home.

 

picked up my bird today,,,,,,,,,,,,,

i'm grinning from ear to ear.

 

That's is a sweet looking BB. Let me just say. After a while you can't have enough luggage. I do like that the hard luggage is easily removable.

 

thanks, pondering on top box only,,,,,,, if anything at all.

some things are best left alone.

 

One great lookin' bird there Ken , the right colour and fits in the shed tidy & 5878
miles ..... I'm jealous .....so custom seat maybe some peg work , screen ...????
Any plans ?? Tho' she is nice just the way Mr Honda made her too !
