…just had to say, in my own experience as it were, 44 odd years on bikes, 21 machines over that period of time... dirt-bikes, nakeds, tourers, cruisers, sports - particular fondness for 'blades - had 3 of those, anyway... the last bike before my Sled was a bee-em - 1200 TE GS, lusted after one for ages… and true, mile-munching turned into an art-form, but… it took a mere 3 months to realise that all i really, really wanted was a simple ‘bike, something light, flickable, minimal electronics, cool - simple bodywork, and tough enough to handle some occasional dirt - a modern-day XT500 came to mind… and lo-and-behold i saw a ‘sled… i’ve already had more than a 1000+ miles of sheer delight & fun scratchin' around in rain and ‘shine on mountain tracks, fields, back lanes, sweeping A and B roads and motorway for the last 2 weeks than i have on any of my bikes for the last 40 years... i love it, deeply
…lookin’ forward to reading your sled stories
