Smile Bessie gets the clean bill of health!

Bessie the Beemer (K100LT) is 16 years old, 72K on the clock and has just passed her MOT with Flying Colours!


On Sunday I gave her an annual clean and tart up - and she repayed me by passing the ticket!

I am so chuffed! I love my bike, use it most days to travel to work and back.
Even managed to get my dive kit on it (sans cylinder - Kit Bitch met me there with a 10l) a few years ago and go to Brixham for a dive.

Unfortunately it's a bit harder strapping the YBOD on... but have been tempted to try!

So off for a blast now to celebrate!
Paul

Come on then, where's the picture of proud dad with his baby ?

Its nice when they go through the MOT's... my 30K Beemer Scarver trundled through her last one nicely.

My R80RT was built by someone who knew what they were doing, 180,000 miles, never let me down. Sailed through MOTs with boring (for them) regularity and without costing a bean.

Finally got destroyed by some dosy car driver.

I've often wondered if this would work Aerodynamic Bike-Pack System - products - Ventura - accessories for the touring motorcyclist still got it in the attic from my Fireblade days......... The twinset could go on the rack facing backwards, and the bag facing inwards.....
