Tourer, 500-750cc, possibly Japanese?

Well done Mr Boyd, a chocolate watch for that man. ;D ;D ;D

I shall soon be the proud owner of a DL 650A GT Suzuki V-Strom in 'burnt orange'. It comes with, ABS, Full set of matching hard luggage, centre stand, heated grips and hand guards plus I've bought the engine bars (wise move following dropping the XT at a garage forecourt on the way to the Dragon  :-[)

How piggin' chuffed am I???

Oh very good choice Pat!!  MCS&L had one on long term test a couple of years ago and reckoned it was a cracking allrounder, the only thing the tester was disappointed with was having to hand it back at the end of the test!

Well done mate!!
