Hi from Cambridgehire, UK

Hi all. I just got a VL800 Intruder last week and am busy customising it to my liking. The usual stuff... windshield, saddlebags, lots of bolt on chrome bits. If I don't go bankrupt before I'm done, I'll post a pic of the finished result...... hopefully later this week.

The last bike I had was a Moto Guzzi California but that was about fifteen years ago. I've reached the age where if I didn't get another bike now I probably never would and the nice weather we've been having this summer convinced to take the plunge. I love the sound of a big V twin engine but wanted something a bit smaller than the Cali this time. Having looked around at what's available in my budget I settled on the Suzuki and I'm loving it so far.

Hello Uneasy-Rider,
