Welcome to the forum, another Scot.

 

Welcome to this den of insanity and perversion, drunkenness and occasional partying. Never leave your wife alone with any of us. Never leave y our girlfriends alone with any of us. For gawd sake, never have your wife and girlfriend in the same five block radius with us at any time..

Seriously though, there are some great people here at VFRW. I have made several very good friends here. No enemies yet but I am still working on that. Where about in Scotland are you from? My ancestors are from the Glasgow area. I think I still have some not too distant relatives there, but I have never been there myself.

 

Hi Randy im in Falkirk. 20 mins from Glasgow.

 

Thanks All for the welcome.
Think i'll like it here!

 

Never seen a fully enclosed tank cover before. Does it actually have an insulation layer or just to shield the tank from the elements?

 

Its just a leather tank cover, saves damage and it should have a tank bag that fits to it but the seller kept it! so still looking for one.

 

I like that. Seems my tank takes a beating from zippers on jackets and the such. Even though they are plastic. That and the rear seat cowl and side bags from my senior legs and feet not moving the way they once did.

I will have to research where they might be available, or maybe get some upholsterer to make one for me.

 

Search for Baglux tank cover .
