Morning All,

New member here with a 1989 Transalp 600, not done much touring/adventuring due to time and family commitments but over the coming years I plan to get out (escape) more often although I'm lucky(?) that my bike is my only form of transport so at least I get to ride daily.

Cheers

Jon

Morning B) . You're not from Thame by any chance? There is a lovely Transalp in and around the town sometimes.

Hi there. I'm in Bucks now but grew up and still work in Oxon. Maybe see you around!

I'm just down the road from Thame, and sometimes pop there for a kebab

my Transalp is red and white.

Welcome from Somerset, I'm a big fan of a mature bike, can we have a photo please? (thumbs)

Here's a flattering shot of the old girl.

She's in pretty good condition for her 26 years, but has her faults and needs some attention in places, ideally I'd like to do a half decent restore job but as she is my only form of transport I have to be careful what I do/start as not to leave myself stranded. Anyone wanna lend me a spare bike

Cheers

Jon

Lovely looking bike and a lovely part of the country. I was at school in Thame in the 70's.
