Arrived at Motofreight where the bikes were being stored , my old bike had arrived from Buenos Aires and my new bike from BMW Vines.
After meeting Roddy who had helped with the storage and shipping I met the bikes.
What a contrast my old bike was covered in dust and dirt from eight months on the road but looked like it had been somewhere and done some stuff. standing next to it was my new bike sparkling and clean, never yet see a dirt road.
Spent day fixing some protective bits on radiators and lights. The only parts I could transfer from the old bike to the new was the foot pegs nothing else fitted.
Was going to transfer the GPS but could not face cutting or messing with the new wires on the bike so will have to buy new GPS. What the hell the budgets blown anyway
Old bike will be sent to Vines for checking of rear drive. New bike will be sent to Sydney as soon a carnet arrives.
In with the new
