I presume he spent all his money on petrol & tyres which is why he can't afford to have it resprayed a different colour. Any colour.
 
Yep , Grizzly certainly has looked after her very well . Hes owned her since new but he was telling us on the rideout that he's just bought something newer, a 1200 Tenere , for foreign jaunts :thumb

Unlike some of the early LCs on here its not a "Triggers broom" bike either :D

That’s a great colour, one of the best and he yellow ones clearly are built better.

Looks a bit too orange to me; is he a closet KTM fancier?

Just a reminder ........... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BUl6PooveJE

He was parked across from me, and I wandered over to have a look and a quick chat ; I thought it was 21000; :blast; says a lot for the guy. Any relation to Micky by any chance.:D
 
It would be interesting to hear about his care regime and what he has done to preserve his bike so well. Especially interesting to know what products he has used, he is clearly doing something right.
