Exup 1000

You're a nutter or a hero (or both) Paul.
Nearly 15 years since you started this thread. What's the vision for this incarnation?

Your wife -edit- life must be a barrell of laughs.

I kind of have two wheels here. It's just a 150cc scooter to get around. Thailand's roads are very dangerous and busy so that's all we need. The space and bag hooks are great for getting to work and the shops quickly. I work full time here finding transport for people in Australia in a kind of ...

Do you know where it is Paul?

Bloody Hell Paul, John and Chris you've done what Crowdstrike couldn't.
Got me wondering after all these years how many members are still around and are there any Exups left on the road?
Here's a pic from 30 April 2006. Paul, Kev and Me at Matlock Bath.
