Sob story - sold my Bird because the US Army was sending me to Belgium and I could only bring one vehicle. Found out too late that bikes don't count as vehicles. They ship with household goods. I got a VFR800 as a replacement, but it isn't the same.
Hope - I found a Bird in the UK at a good price with low miles. I really want to head over there and grab it. My thought was that I would take the train there (Sudbury, Suffolk) and ride it back.
Problem - Although the train is more expensive than I had expected, it can be done. My concern is now getting back. I guess I could take my GPS and try to figure out how to wire it in quickly. But I'm a bit concerned about getting across the channel. Never done it. First time in Europe as well. How painful is this process?
I'm presuming UK riders cross the channel from time to time and can help. Any advice is very much appreciated. I need a Bird again...badly.
