Hi, OK I'm an old guy that hasn't ridden seriously for decades. Have rented 125s while on holidays but nothing long term for 40 years. As a youngster I had far more bravery than skill with obvious consiquences so when I married at 21 promised the wife no more motorbikes. Recently widowed (cancer) and was shopping at the local supermarket, came across a nice lady on a nicer Himalayan. Long chat. Have decided that when I arrive back from holiday that I will be putting the deposit down on a Himalayan the same day. Never ridden one, but working on the premis that the chassis is far better than the engine it is the safest bet considering my limited riding skills. Back in the day it was Suzuki 750 triple, Honda 500/4 and Yamaha YDS7 - good engines interesting chassis, rubbish brakes.
