Since building up my sherpa I have realise just what an awful fit my Claud buttler tourer is, it was originally purchased for my brother, many years ago and is far too big for me. I also now have no need for a mid-weight tourer having a pretty heavy duty tourer in the Sherpa which i would always use for camping trips as it offers extra piece of mind in its bomb-proof construction
A nice steel framed mile muncher though- just the ticket. Unfortunately i'm not sure the bank balance can take another thorn shaped dent just now :-(
