    Thanks for sharing that Snowy , my father was diagnosed with an aggressive prostate cancer this year and it was touch and go for a while. He was told by a top German doctor that the cancer was contained in the prostate but that could change anytime / or never !! He said he always advices removal over chemotherapy although their are possible consequences with the removal op.
    Luckily all went well with no side effects after the op and he’s now clear. As this is hereditary I now am advised to take a yearly blood test as my chances are now greatly increased.

    As they used to say ” nearly all men over 70 die WITH prostate cancer but not always from it “

    I managed to knock off a bit early and after servicing the 250 went for a blat , after our 10-15mm last night the trails were great and the 250 was on song in the tight stuff !!!

    Sometimes you forget how good your local trails are and riding alone was an awesome way to wind down after a hard days work !!!

    Jacko tried /had 3 of them over I think 6 months, they keep failing and he ended up getting a refund.

    The updates wont be a problem, tracks and roads dont really change much if you think about it. The problem with them is you cant load tracks or routes on it

    TB

    I forgot about not being able to load tracks and routes , not much use really !!

    The Zumo has always worked well and still does after 2 years.

    If it’s the Strike I tried I went through 3 of them that had a fault that seemed to occur when riding rough roads thankfully was known by Bikebiz who looked after me with a quick refund.

    Hopefully they’ve improved them but I’d suggest buying from a reputable dealer just in case you have a drama that can’t be fixed like mine .

    It looks cool, but the picture looked a lot cooler in 2009/10 when it was first put together by a moto mag, on what they thought the 2015 model may look like. I have also seen a similar picture labelled the 2018 model.

    In reality the 2015 model will just be this years model with bold new graphics. :laugh:

    Hope not but your probably right , I found the pic via dirt Moto site and was hoping maybe by 2020 a 350 x would appear !!
