Awesome. I want one.

Edit - are those BFG KM2s? I can't wait to get rid of mine...! Great tires, but they suck when they're worn. Mine won't balance anymore...!

It was my ride for the week in the Smokies...and will be again in a couple weeks. It really made me want one. It was a perfect photo adventure rig.

Nice!

I'm hoping to get a TRD Pro eventually - hopefully the new one with the hybrid. I would never pay money for an electric car, but my FJ gets 17mpg... Hybrid makes sense. Diesel hybrid makes more sense, but for some reason nobody does that (AFAIK). I do miss my 4th gen though - it was much more useful than the FJ.

An early 5th Gen us now on my list, If I can find a TRD Pro I won't complain.

Yes - BFG KM2's in 235/85R16 - maybe the tall and skinny ones balance better?

My ride from this past Sunday morning...

255/70/17. They're pretty skinny, but I think I may have damaged one or two of the sidewalls. Oops.

It was a sad day when I left Singapore and had to sell it!

My ambition for a good while is to grow old disgracefully. So far my wife tells me that I am doing really well!

Has anyone noticed the big 10" alloy finned break drums? They certainly stopped it when you wanted them to! Not a standard fit, but neither were the alloy bits under the bonnet along with all th MG badges.

I will have to see if I can do some research on it soon?

You must be thrilled to see MG badges on the recently released cars!


Still waiting for the wisdom they promised would be worth getting old for.

You mean this Pippan

No, it doesn't translate properly in Deeple? It's a bit like the Beetle that isn't anything like that famous name it's trading on, or the Mini which is about as mini as a large elephant vmad

I see. It makes you sick enough to need a doctor. Me too.

Not me but a good friend of mine from 1962 with his old Norton.
I hope you allow me to post it here as a tribute to him and I think it will arouse interest in the bike - "They don't make them like that anymore":-)
We all had 1000cc HRD Vincents at the time. He had three Vincents in his shed/garage, all undergoing rebuilds.
