Limey 242 Posted July 30, 2010 Report Share Posted July 30, 2010 One of these days I'll ship my KZ-650 over there and join in with all this stuff! Looked at renting a bike in the U.K. but the prices are crazy - start at 100quid/day! Out of my range I'm afraid. However, when I win the lottery... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
