...I restore my 800 every weekend after an off-road/geocaching ride... Twisted Evil

BTW, discovered this weekend again, that bike is heavy when it is resting sideways on your foot! Also learned a neck brace does not prevent whiplash... /hijack off/

Not much, just Marnus leading us through interesting recces to Soweto/Maraisburg. Was fun though! Learned that it is better to follow a path rather than making one. Amazing what size rocks hide in the long grass...

I'm not restoring it as such, but I do have a 30-year old R100S that I look after...
