Hello from Bedfordshire UK

[Columbo John]

Hello everyone and thanks for allowing me in!

I've just bought a T7 as my next 'big trip' bike replacing  Rally Raid equipped CB500X that I went I rode to Thailand via China on and am hoping to ride across Siberia on the T7 next year.

 

My bike was registered in December 2020 and had covered 492 miles by the time I picked it up last week. It was fitted with Yamaha panniers, HD bashplate, heated grips and LED indictors and I've a long list of things I want to do to the bike.

Brace yourselves for incoming stupid questions!

Thanks for joining up and posting @Columbo John.  Those are ambitious rides you've done and plan on doing. 

Please keep us informed of your trips and customization of your new bike.  Enjoy!

Hello from darkest Oswestry... I will be interested to see where you end up luggagewise since you are already a big tripper.

My bike came with the Yamaha aluminium boxes to I will use them for my planned trip in conjunction with an Ortleib roll bag strapped to a luggage plate.
