To all the other motorbikes out there – greetings from a red-nosed F650GS: May you have a great holiday season and new year. May you put a smile on your riders' faces every time they ride you. May you return home reliably every time you go for a ride. May you provide ample power while sipping your favourite brew while travelling. May you travel at appropriate speeds and stay safe. May your gears mesh quietly as and when required. May you never lose your bearings. May your registration never expire. May your fitness be warranted on time. May your owner keep you well maintained. May your tyres be replaced before they are worn out. May your chain stay well lubricated and never stretch. May your moving parts stay well oiled. May your wheels always be free of dog pee. May your brakes stop you without locking up. May your owners, their families, and their friends have a really great Christmas and New Year.
