Hi folks, yes sadly my BMW R1250R is no more. I had an accident back in early August and the bike has been deemed an uneconomical repair. Gutted is an understatment Still, looking on the bright side, I got away with it lightly, with no major injuries it could have been much worse.

I can't even make any YouTube money with a video of it it was just me and the bike on a nice (up to the crash anyway) little Saturday morning ride!

Motivation to keep my YT channel going (among other things) has taken a hit since the accident and it might take a while to get back up to speed sorry that I've not been around very much recently.

But it's been nearly two months now and so I have started to have ideas about a new small bike, following on from my recent test rides on the BMW G310 GS and the KTM 390 Adventure. I think the KTM will be my next bike and that will keep me entertained until the time comes to start shopping for new big bike I might even keep the Kawasaki too I can't make my mind up about which roles each bike would suit best... stay tuned!

As for the Honda, the poor thing didn't even get a mention today. I'm thinking about selling it actually. If you've read this far, want a Honda Bros 650 (running and road legal), are in the UK and have £1400, drop me a line!
