Well, what can I say. Chris and I went for a ride to the New Forest at the beginning of this month. We only made it 60 miles before our back sides were killing us...... Not very good for the trip as our days are going to be between 200 and 300 miles a day. We were going to get our seats re done to make them more comfy but Chris had joked about getting a Pan European ST1100 a few weeks earlier. We'd umm'd and arr'd about it then went for the ride to the New Forest which made our minds up.
I'm picking my Pan European up on Saturday . I've got to go down to Dorset which is 108 miles away. I'll keep you informed about my back side when I return

......
It's a real shame about the Africa Twins as they are really great bikes to ride. Alot of fun, but I'm sure these "Pans" will be just as much fun if not better. They also have a greater "tank" range than the AT's. 270 miles compared to 170 miles and they've only got 4 more litres in the tanks.
Looking forward to our next ride out on the 1100's.
