Beitrag von Big Ade »

Hello to all Bulldog owners from Sheffield (South Yorkshire). Just joined this German forum (been on UK forum a while) because I am going to the 9th this year.
Had my dog for nearly 6 years and I think it is one of the best bikes I have ever had (for long/short trips, scratching and the sound). I know there are faster, quicker and bigger machines but I reckoned that they would all be life shortening for me so the dog is a good (excellent) alternative.
Over the years I have modified my dog and added progressive front springs, xenon h/lamp, Renthall bars and lower risers, Virago mirrors, Vario screen, carb conversion, K&N full flow filters, hugger and best of all a pair of BSA Gold Star DBD34 free flowing 'silencers'. Just lashed up a frame to fit Givi top box and two side panniers for the Germany trip.
The dog is not my primary transport but it does get all year round and wet use. It has taken me to Italy and back via Switzerland and to the TT three times (only one other dog on the Island). I generally have a blast round the roads in Derbyshire (Peak District) at the weekend just to feel alive again.
Drop me a line especially if you are going to Germany too. Ade.

Hi Ade,

welcome to the german Bulldog owners!

I´m curious about the BSA Silencers. Please take some photos and keep it to your album, if you want.

Hi Ade,

Hello from Hereford. It's taken you a while to find this forum but I am sure you will find it useful. If you have any questions/problems there is usually someone who can help. :clapp:

There are a few of us going to the International Bulldog Treffen, so if you are interested in going you are most welcome to join us. If you do join us don't expect a high speed trip - there's lots of coffees, photo stops and the obligatory getting lost! :beer:

We have no route planned and no hotels booked other than the hotel at the event. It's our aim to just wander around for a couple of days and hope we come across the Bulldog Treffen location at some time on the Thursday. mopedsmile:

Failing to plan is planning to fail so they say, but hey it's a holiday so let's take it easy and not worry about it. All roads lead to..... where was it? :? Oh well! I'm sure one of the gang will know! :lol: At least it will be sunny when we get there - it always is in Germany :sunny:

Hope you can join us. :cool:

Best wishes,

John W :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy:

I expect you will try and avoid us after reading this! :wink:

John

I will be travelling with my son, he is in the RAF and will be riding his GSXR750 so at the moment we are fluid too but he could get posted to the Far East so I can't make any hard plans right now. Currently we know that he has to be back in Licolnshire for the 11th so there will be a mad dash home on Sunday/Monday, but that could change too.

If we can manage it I really think it would be great to meet up and travel as a group. My last jaunt was when 8 of us took bikes to Italy and I was really off the pace because my buddies (FJR1300, Bandit1200, BMW R1200, Kwaker 1200, Honda Euro, etc.) were cruising at 130mph+ I was red lining for miles and they were losing me. I don't realy want to be doing 120mph+ for 6 hours a day again. I had no problem on the twisties in Switzerland and actually managed to push them a bit.

I shall keep in touch via this forum and whetever happens we'll see you there.

Ade
