Title: New Multistrada arrives in UK and comparison with BMW 1200 GS
Post by: mytduk on April 07, 2010, 12:05:29 PM
This in from Motorcycle News (MCN) in the UK. Looks like the first Multistradas are arriving at the dealerships in the UK. They look to be selling well already. Take a look at MCN's comparsion between the new Multistrada and the BMW 1200 GS

It is Pete from Colorado Springs and the SOCODOGS. I ride a 1991 907 I.E.  If you want to get hold of me the best way is to email me at peter.pino@lmco.com.  I know BONFY and some of the folks from Denver. Unfortunately I am not real good at posting pictures or I would put my 907 on here. I was up at Ouray last August.

Pete, when we get you dialed in on Photbucket, you're gonna blow us away on the then & now thread.   And no, I'm not saying you're old  [laugh].
Hell, I'm 3 months from my 40th anniversary of riding these crazy things.

Hey Pete, funny I was wondering if mytduc was you.  [thumbsup] THis is Anson, after I read this I was remembering I was supposed to call you back but never did. Sorry that was an epic weekend. Zaster will attest to that. That was an awesome video, I posted it and took credit for the find in another forum.

Good to see ya, I need to get my Monster back on the road but I look forward to seeing you again.  [cheeky] Still love your 907 btw. Did you bring your CB down too?

Anson, yes, I brought all my bikes down. Last weekend  I brought the last of my motorcycle children down, a 1970 Bridgestone GTR and a 1971 Bridgestone GTO. But yes the Honda is down here and I use it to go to work on. It is a 1970 CB750F with a little 1/4 fairing and I just put on a pair of bar end mirrors. Last one to the cafe ain't no Cafe Racer except when you are me.

Mytduk now here in NM.
