Hi LJ,
Many thanks for your kind comments, I am very touched by them. Yes, it's always hard to part with a bike & the A10 will be no exception. I guess it will be another victim of having weakened my back in my youth working on old cars!!
This is a great Forum with a real sense of community and I will continue to visit - after all , I still have the B33 which will have to become an "honoury A10" !
With very best wishes,
