We really ought to remind him that dressing gown and slippers is really not suitable riding attire too. Also, I think I'd only be doing my duty if I offered to relieve him of one or two of those bikes he's got there - it'll save him a world of confusion  ;)

Gave it a bath.
Some say that he eats habanero chilli peppers dipped in oil of capsaicin for extra bite and that his pyjamas are made from Nomex. All we know is, he's called Ad the Bad

Charged & refitted the  battery , topped up the tyres , started her up and went out for a spin round the ring road , along the A420 past Castle combe and back down the M4 to Bristol , sun was shining , roads were mainly  dry , not too cold ,  bike felt great , got home with a big grin on my face , felt like spring is around the corner .

Couple of hours out in the cold winter sun, really good fun, blew the winter cobwebs away, where the fields had flooded and left  streams
crossing the road was a bit scary at times, Def worth doing, nicely warm at home now. :)

First time out in 2 months, finally got a Fazer fix! The bike was eager, the roads were dry (well, for the most part), and thoroughly enjoyed the first run of 2014. Hello 2014!  :)
Just a quick run down to H's, Dorchester, quite busy today.

washed it! was looking sorry for itself after commuting on it 2 days last week and not washing it afterwards. Ive now dragged it round into the garage (ahem.. glorified shed) in preparation for sorting the engine out and changing the chain and sprockets out next week.

I also want to take off the centre stand, and shotblast/repaint it as there is some surface rust starting on it :(
