Hello all

I've just bought an ex-NATO/MOD Harley Davidson from here:

Taxed, MOT'd, on-the-road-and-good-to-go, all for for two grand. (N.b. cheaper ones are also available.)

Spec is: 350cc Rotax, "Enduro" style bike with box panniers and (I love this!) a "rifle holster". Disc brakes, matte Olive Drab paint/body, 6, 000km on the clock and Made In USA (not like a lot of Harleys which are, I think, made in Italy.)

Bought it for / on behalf of my uncle but am loving in the meantime

Anyhoo, the place that sells them is about 3 miles from me, so I any of you fancy one let me know and I'll show you the ropes.
 
Forgot to add that they have rougher examples in for £1250 and also some of the 500cc versions.

IMHO, the 350cc is fine (esp with the price of petrol as it is). Also, the bike has a nice high riding position for town/urban riding without the wobbly weight of a BMW.
 
Surly being a Rev must be great. If someone annoys you have you ever spoke to the big man about it?

Yeah, He tells me to forgive them.

It sucks. I'm thinking of becoming a Muslim just because of that. What I want is justice!*





*Except for me. Then I want mercy.
 


Darn.
