I guess the ‘ can’t be arsed,don’t care about my machine, which has survived this long’ look, must be popular in some places.I could understand it if it was new, but most people over here tend to be in awe of such an older machine, than flocks of new, throwaway machines of today!
In fact, only last night, I and a friend rode to a biker pub in Dorset, he on his 2 year old MT 700, and me on my 32 year old K, and my bike had the most admirers, and indeed, photos taken of it by people stating “Blimey, what a great looking machine! I havnt seen one of those for decades!”.
A little care goes a long way. What’s more, I find it satisfying that my hard work is appreciated by complete strangers.
Know what I mean, boys?
