Just done 1750 miles touring scotland and the old girl never missed a beat, you gotta love these bikes, she needs two new tyres though and because the front one was nearly bald i had to cut the journey short.

What would you call your cruising speed? I found 80 miles an hour a good speed on the motorways but wondered what others have as there cruising speed.

Going to fit two new Avon roadriders, i seen somewhere there ok and a good price too.

One of my favourite pics from the tour.

you sure you took that photo in scotland . . it looks fake 1. there is too much sun 2.there is no rain 3.there are no midges nice picture where was that taken

it was friday morning at Kinlochleven near fort william about 8.30 in the morning.
lol, the midges, i camped the first night, was frozen, got attacked and smothered in the morning by the midges and never camped again.

I used the hostels and i must say there great, proper bed and kitchens to cook everything all for £14-£16 per night, heaven, and no midges.

You couldn't pass this comment Bobbie!

Very nice picture.

My cruising speed on the highway is about 75/80mph too. The bike seems to be happy at this speed.

Eye of course its Scotland, today Bank holiday Monday the sun shone all day in Moray, if it was not for the midges it would be perfect sorry to hear you got half eaten by the little blighters Badgerdid, I just fitted a pair of Avon roadriders to my bike seam okay at present read some good reports and they were very reasonable.
