Gloucester, from Roadies Cafe

I've arrived at Maclean, after two days of dodging some weather and some great roads. Day 1 was Sydney to Taree. It started raining at Hornsby, so I blasted through it on the freeway, got off at Wyong before the horrible concrete bit and finally got a dry track about Morriset.

I'm heading from Maclean/Grafton to Taree on Friday, then back to Syd on Saturday. The long way of course.

I'm in.

I am wondering if the riding position has been fiddled on the Sport, as I found the first gen to be not quite right. The GT was better, and so is the Tmax. So far the only thing I don't ...

I received an email from Piaggio Oz advising a recall of the Bev. It is to replace the ABS modulator and brake master cylinders. Only applies to some builds, definitely worth having a chat to your dealer.
