I needed something after 8 months here in Belgium. Was looking for an RD04 and ran across this 97 xrv750 Africa Twin and grabbed it. Perfect for these Belgian roads. Finally something to ride other than a scooter

You have been looking foe a while, I think you will really like her. And does look like more fun than a scooter.

Hey Barry it's not bad here I suppose but darned if I haven't gained 20 pounds eating and it's not even fast food or beer. Yes it will do for now JA and hopefully survive the roads here, at least I'll be able to park now when getting to little cities. Waiting on plates now for it. Aren't you over Paris way Husson. Been there a few times now on train and bus, need to make an effort to get over your way. Need to get a gps mounted on bike. No way I'm going anywhere without one, i make wrong turns even with one. Any folks come over this way you have a free place to stay. 3 bedrooms upstairs I don't use and a garage with a few tools to use if needed heck i can even loan you a scooter :D

h2smokin, am living inside Paris 2 kilometers from Eiffel tower on the other side of the river la Seine. But am on Brittany actually with my H2 with new TM 32, 550 kilometers to go and the TM work perfectly just a little too rich in middle range and perhaps also at full range 7500 RPM 5th gear, the bike has more torque and power.
