Re: Europe 2025
Greg, what's the name of the guy you store it with and how do you insure it/yourself while riding and the rest of the year while it sits?

Re: Europe 2025
gixxerjackwagon gave you the correct link. I do all stuff through Knopf. Moto insurance is expensive here! I believe because I am doing short-term as a non-resident. You can get it in 30 day increments. The 2nd month and so on it gets cheaper. That is one of the reasons why I usually plan my trips to be 30 days of riding. I don't insure it all if I am not riding it. No need to.
Medical insurance is cheap.

This repartee Skooter and Gixxer have is nearly as good as Don Stanley's remarks about Greg.

Re: Europe 2025
Except gixxer doesn't speak up enough, nor does he quote Irish poems, or post photos of beautiful Irish lasses. Other than that, they are entirely and unequivocally the same person.

Maybe someday I will get caught up again. Probably not.
Here's another snippet. Last night was a good night! Some of you old timers may recognize this dastardly gentleman.....

...and from the looks of it, he hasn't aged at all! That's awesome Skoot that you were able to get together and have dinner.
