Oh well.
You can bring a horse to the river but you can't force one to drink it
Good on you for trying though, most wouldn't bother including myself........

Hi Guys, So sorry I have been away (work) just landed in Edinburgh (work again) and grabbed a few mins at airport because guy I am meeting with is delayed. Thank you Nutty for taking so much time, trouble and consideration - I can give him a call tomorrow (today I am back to back until 7pm) but not sure what I will do with regards to replacement bike - feels like an underground nuclear bunker to store it in, doesnt really work if all I do is worry about the bike being stolen. I am considering renting a garage, if I can find one, but need 5mins to be able to get some thinking time. Sorry this is a rushed note, people now waiting for me, just wanted to respond having seen the messages and kind support.
Hi Guys, I have a rented RT and whilst I don't like it anywhere near as much as my GS (that's not to say it's not a good, just not my thing) I'm having a great time the B6160 into Aysgath was so good I stayed extra night to do it again heading to Loch Lomond tomorrow - so far it's been blue skies and clear twisty roads. Went to Alan Jeffries dealership yesterday, great guy (Steve Coleman) was really helpful, I took a RS out for a spin, great fun but not sure it's my number one choice. I had a 2016 GS triple black which had every pack and extras, I don't really like the Rallye or GS Exclusive so drawn to the GSA triple black, it's huge but looks awesome. Hopefully I can visit on way back down and take one out for a decent ride - anyone had both the GS and the GSA with a view on pro/cons ?
Well just an update on situation, GSA TB on order, waiting for tracker to be fitted before I collect. Called Carole Nash for about 20th time, this one today was just under an hour, quotes to put new bike onto existing policy in total came in at just over £4K, keep in mind that's not supposed to take into account the theft (that joy comes next year) I think £4K to insure a bike a steep - I know London insurance prices are on the rise but that's mental!
So price comparisons online will commence, which will take into account the theft but must be less than £4K out there.
I have organised secure underground storage, place is security controlled basement, CCTV and 24hr patrols (contains super cars in temp controlled bays so can picture the scene re security) so must much more secure than parking it on the road outside my house!!
If anyone knows of an insurance firm that doesn't have a melt down when you mention different post code (yet secure compound) welcome any suggestions.
Also been debating if perhaps I should have gone for the KTM Adv S but maybe another life !!

Yes sure I'll dig out for you, prefer to IM. It's about 5.5 miles out of Richmond though, a pain but ok for me as purely social use and setup is pretty good.

Ta. I can't IM you though - it doesn't show against your ID (maybe not enough posts yet or maybe just a settings thing).
You can IM me though I think.
