My lady of half a century has gone into care so I needed some diversion therapy and bought an ER6-n which is the first bike I have had for over 50 years.
As I had had a licence before they only required me to take the final test which got me straight on to a full licence. I've had the bike for less than 2 months. Took a while to get used to riding again but the scratches on me and the bike have been fixed and I am having a great time.
Cheers, v.
