Croeso, Beemer. This is a great site. Unfortunately I'm a fair distance from you in south Lincolnshire. Glyn.

When we say West Wales, where do we mean?  Pembrokeshire or Gwynned...

Got to practise my welsh:
.....Who's coat is that Jacket?
.....Where's he to?
......Isn't it?
......tidy?

 

If 'the missus' sees this there will be trouble!  She's from Anglesey...she speekio the lingio...

I will be in Bala at the end of the month, sailing.  Looking forward to the Welsh Cakes.

No we mean cardigan bay,There's lovely,boyo!!!

[steve hawkins]

That is what I mean Cardigan Bay is almost the entire west coast of Wales isn't it?  So I assume you mean the Cardigan Bay at the southern End of cardigan Bay..... :-/

Lovely area to ride through.

Lets see a picture of you bike then....

Here's the bike 83 R65SL.

Nice!  That will be a fun back roads bike.  I saw a pretty red LS at the OVM show a couple of years ago, when the featured marque was BMW.  I put my poor dirty old thing in the show (hey, I had to park it some where!) but in the parking lot was this really clean LS.  I never did meet the owner to tell him/her about our group.

I didn't know you could mount the mufflers in that position.  It looks kind of sporty that way.  Are they in the way when you pull the rear tire?

Have fun!

[beemer]

I don't know if they would be in the way when taking the rear wheel off,as i haven't done that yet,but the pipes were on it that way when i bought it,not sure if they can be mounted at another angle?cheers,J.

Great looking R65.

[beemer]

Thanks Ed,i'm very pleased with her so far,J.

[steve hawkins]

Looks like the local garage or previous owner has put the mufflers on the wrong way up.  I have seen this a couple of time before on other Boxers.

Are they stainless?

Anyway, tidy bike isn't she, boyo?

Cheers

Steve

Hmm,i can't see how they can be turned round though?cheers,J. :-/
