It was one of his videos that helped me first come to the conclusion that the 500F was what I wanted :)
I've watched several of these videos on the new NX500, just as I did with the previous 500X....

Woke this morning to the news that my octogenarian mum has put herself in hospital with a broken something, so I guess my mileage is going to take a step up as I swap my enthusiastic beginner's...
If you keep looking you'll notice that some are on their side too. I wonder if anyone at Cartier has ever noticed?

On the 24 hour subdial, the numbers should read

The way the IX runs into the minute markers is very special.
A heart-rending tale! :dejection:
Leaving my Direct Access until after my trip in May. Once I've a full license, I would be astonished if I buy anything other than a CB500F in Unnecessary Yellow:

Found the clouds had lifted a bit while I was having lunch so went north over Buttertubs, north to Keld and then north again to Tan Hill Inn, where I turned east, eventually coming down...
I fell for some Met Office porkies so am in a rainy cloudy Hawes. Usual cafe is shut for the day, so have found a tiny place called the Folly. Glad to have noted the advice 100 pages back about...
And 45 years later, I did my CBT on a CG125 :joyous:
When we got dropped off that the training ground and I saw my little red Honda in front of me, my bike for the day, ahhh, so, so happy, so...
“We are not leaving behind the idea of bringing watchmaking back to the UK and we want to still be seen as a British challenger — but the Britishness will be expressed much more through exploration,...
Jubilee or rivets is a poor choice when ah sod it, I leave it is an option.
The new Mr Bremont certainly has been talking the talk, but this walk is not walking, at all.
Too many Jubilee bracelets these days.

Do 25 miles a day Mon-Fri, 100 a day Sat/Sun, and in 30 weeks your near enough there. Easier to ignore the weather when you're a teenager. Anyway, I found it an inspiring encounter, really nice guy.
He was a very slight, definitely medium height at best, unassuming guy from Scarborough, naturally polite in manner. Long hair, bum fluff 'tach. He will have ridden over in some properly filthy...
Just met an 18 year old lad, he was carrying a helmet and looking well rained upon. So I had to enquire. He too has a CB125R. Private sale, he paid £900 back in September. Since then, he's done...
Just booked my 125 in for its next service. Over the next three weeks, I'll be aiming to ride a smidge more than 800 miles. Dear Weather, perk up a bit, please....
Feel I've kind of plateaued with my opening pair of words....

My second service will be due by the end of the month, trying to calculate when it'll be wanted.
Am I right in supposing that to a future purchaser, a service 150 miles early looks better than one...
Does the given total length include the number plate hanging beyond the rear tyre?
