New things ... his and hers


Dave's latest motorbike - physically it's smaller than my Honda Jazz but it cost a whole lot more. There's a fair bit of storage on board, enough for a two week tour.  Features (that I know of) a radio system, a moveable windscreen, ABS brakes and many others I know nothing about ...
