I posted this on my Facebook page and thought I would share this here, it is also why I am not as active as I used to be apart from my work getting in the way
in case any one is wondering I do not plan to change my cover picture as "The Mistress" is with doubt the best bike I have ever owned unfortunately no longer with me due to a mistake by me,I have owned other bikes including my current bike the Triumph Explorer 1215cc which does a lot of things better but never has there been and I doubt there ever will be another bike that can make you smile till your face hurts and make smile every time you think about it yes some will say there are reliability issues but that just is what makes it a Real Bikers bike ... it is raw power art form just waiting to be tinkered with to unleash Sooooo much More
RIP "The Mistress"
