A Big Lump of Iron but I'm Very Fond of Her!

She still does it for me, despite newer, flashier machinery.  I'm not ready to trade yet!

I expect to have mine for quite a while yet . I own it , and it still does what I need it to do reliably & relatively cheaply .

Agreed fellas. I could go and buy the latest bike with cash but I'm not bothered. El bandito and Dr Z keep a smile on my dial

I can understand your love mate. I'm not getting rid of mine any time soon either

She really looks the part with the gold rims and the Delkevic's following suite, Dave. 
The belly pan really makes her stand out, too. 
I don't often get to ride "Jewel" as Chris has adopted her, but I got the chance to blow the cobwebs out of her recently. 
I still think that, for a big tourer, they are a cracking bike and put a smile on my dial each time I ride.

If it aint broke, why fix it eh?

Putting the gold rims back on definitely got me admiring the total package, and new tyres always produce that feeling of riding something new.

Yeah, that's it, I fixed the bits that I thought needed some attention.

Bev probably hosed it when she did the garden.
