Solicitors . . . boy do we get a bad press. I became a solicitor at 40 BECAUSE I was so p*ssed off with cr*p lawyers who charged a fortune. Always remember a solicitor is a LAST resort.
Remember everyone a GOOD solicitor (like ANY good professional) is cheap no matter what they charge and a BAD solicitor is expensive no matter what they charge !!
Ah yes bikes, knew I was here for a reason . . .
The trailer Claude is for two bikes NOT a trailer for each bike. Sorry I wasn't clear. And Claude, I have to tell you - you whole bike is a bloody inspiration - I keep going back to look at the pictures - pure Paso porn.
One day - I promise - my Paso WILL BE THAT GOOD !!

Ciao Francesco - another bloody lawyer . . .
But you're right, the best lawsuit is the avoided lawsuit.

I didnt read your post properly I thaught two trailers...
Rhino when are you getting these bikes? dont worry about a few stonechips, I have quiet a few on mine, get Holts touch up paint I think MONZA RED...and you're on the right track to get a complete service done..and you need to change the tyres with some softer sports rubber.
like I said you have a good unit to start with...only travelled few miles...I still cant believe that you still havent seen them, let us know when you actually see them
I think you've been infected with the paso bug

Ah Claude - what can I say - my car got creamed (with me in it) by a coach a few days ago, so, having had the bikes delivered to the exact opposite side of the country from me I have still yet to see them - let alone swing a leg over them!! Still it's been 23 maybe 24 years since I last rode a bike - what's another week or two. To be honest given the state of the whiplash it may yet be a while before I can ride either of them . . .
I'd be very grateful for a tyre recommendation for the Paso bearing in mind that - even though it's Wales - I will try to avoid rain like the plague. Yeah, yeah I know - I may never get to ride them ! Angelix - on the 'New Member, long time owner' thread recommends Pirelli Diabolo tyres running 2.2 BAR front and 2.4 BAR rear - any thoughts?
As to being infected by the Paso bug I owned, in about 1989, a brand new 750 Paso and I have to say, I have nothing but good memories of that bike. It started, stopped, ran like a watch gave pretty good fuel consumption and I never had a minutes trouble with her - amazing given that she was completely stock. Sadly stolen, and even though it was 20 years ago, and even though I'm a lawyer, if I ever find the piece of human excrement that stole her, he will, after several days - beg me to let him die.

...he will, after several days-beg me to let him die!!
Memories...that is the reason that I could never sell my bike, too many good memories.
As far as tyres go Angelix recomends a very good tyre...my brother used diablos on his 851, I have michelins pilot road in the rear and pilot sport front, but if had a choice again I would go pilot sport front and back and I dont go that fast, but its good insurance

I still work in PSI that equates to 32 front and 35 rear...that sounds good to me

Staintunes are nice! My Suppertrapps have served my 907 well.

Donaldoduck...this looks like a much loved 907...I cant take credit for my staintune setup, but you have done a mighty good job with this exaust system and working in close tolerances to keep the rear pegs...congratulations
