I’ve finally done it chaps and gone to the dark side by part-exein my Varadero for a Honda F6C, A rather large 1520cc red and white cruiser with screen and panniers, 6 cylinder chromed engine with a 6 into 6 exhaust. Sounds like an American muscle car. Still getting used to the weight and power and the shaft drive. I think my traffic filtering days are gone cos its too dam wide! I can’t remember how to upload a photo if someone can shed some light it shall be done.
Holy crap Scouser! That’s the dark side and then some.
Very nice, bet it sounds gorgeous with the 6 pipes. You picked it up yet?
They are lovely sounding best, a chap I know around here has one running after market pipes…sounds glorious!!
Yeah its in my garage waiting for a dry spell. only done 50 mile on it so far and took it to 80 on the M1 to get a feel still have not fully wound it up yet. I think it tops out at 120 but I know the bikes not built for speed just comfort and taking the views in. Its very heavy when getting it out of the garage, no reverse, but it does lean well believe it or not, haven’t scraped the hero blobs yet

This is his:
(PS: Could you give Digger some guidance on posting pics, he was going to put some up of his R1…cheers!)
Radar and Thumper have now met the beast and they loved is Chevy sounding burble. Thumper was starting to ponder if one could fit in his garage
