Hello Everyone
Just found the site - do not know why it has eluded me before!
Live near Keith!
Recently completed a 2200 mile anticlockwise tour of the UK by back roads on the Lardy.
I enjoy commuting, ride outs and especially touring but hate motorways and avoid wherever and whenever practical.
Currently a mod on BUSA.

BUSA = Burgman USA forum
Perhaps we should start a BUK forum of our own?
I'm a member of BUSA, but don't visit often. It's a bit too "American" if you know what I mean. They don't talk proper, like wot we does. |

Well I am biased. 
BUSA was one of the first dedicated Burgman sites and quickly became a good resource. They have lots of very fine people as members (like me Bob and Waspie for starters!).
I like Americans too! 
.............and it has worldwide membership.
.............anyone who rides PTWs has at least one redeeming feature.  |

Hello Norman and welcome.
Like BUSA, I haven't been on here for a while either, so I'm playing catch up here then there.
I'd certainly recommend BUSA to anyone who hasn't tried it. Like the X9OC to the X9 ....BUSA is the font of all knowledge Burger...Good people...even if they do speak funny.

Hi JJ when did you sneak in?
Off to see if I've already said hello.
Ooh I did say hello back in January. Put it down to goggish behaviour. |

Welcome from me too, we're all north of Portsmouth.
JJ tends to forget us.  |

Apols for the hijack.
