    Today I fitted the panniers to the bike for the first time.

    There is a distillery in Aberfeldy Dewars own it, I'm guessing they do an Aberfeldy scotch but not sure

    Found some cheap (brilliant condition) white panels for the matt rs. I suppose I’ve always preferred the white one secretly.
    So, fitted them and only the tank left, which is obviously on the expensive side....
    However, after looking at it (and a couple of “lemonades..) I actually quite like it as is?
    I’ve ordered a baglux white tank cover anyway (I already had the black) as it’s cheaper than a tank (£144 motolegends)
    Thoughts on ok or not?

    Very smart, the white tank cover should set the bike off well :):)

    I took today off work. In the morning I went for a Go Ape Segway session with my son. It was brilliant, my son is 14 and has epilepsy, but he's having a good spell and he was brilliant on the Segway. Then I went out on my Bonnie, they are such great bikes, really easy to ride and just a pleasure. Not fast by modern standards, and mine weighs a lot less than a standard one, but still able to get up and go. Now I'm mildly pissed as I decided to have an early drink to celebrate. Greta day!

    So much the better, Vulpes! :D Perhaps I should send Mr. Sandi out on a shopping trip. :) Although if it involves a ride I'd rather go with him. :sun::cool: Did the shopping trip involve diamonds, alcohol, or chocolate? "A girl's best friend" and all that. :blush: Well, I guess that saying just includes the diamonds part. Personally, though I'd include the last two. And motorcycle parts and gear would also be on my "best friends" list. :joy:

    Well, the trip involved a bike for her actually (look for my thread in "Lounge"). and as she's not got her license yet I had to test ride it for her - what a hardship... :joy:

    Wow, that is SOOOO exciting! Way better (at least from my perspective) than any selection or combination of diamonds, booze, and chocolate. I'll look for your "Lounge" thread--I'm so curious what bike it is. And, boo-hoo, so sorry that you had to test ride it. ;):joy:
