Brooker, are you happy now mate, you have finally achieved greatness by getting that bellypan, plus you know you've got somewhere when you have a bike carpet I feel like you arent doing me any favours by showing your bike, i just seen how shiny your exhaust is but i dont reckon i can afford a new one Plus is that 2 mismatched fasteners i see on the front fairing.......tut tut, slacking QuoteNo mismatched fasteners on my bike not a chance. Just a couple more bits to do. then i will no doubt sell it,i did exactly the same with the gen1. I may change the bike carpet as its the wrong colour

Talking about getting your takeaways home, when I was 18 (back in the dark ages before anyone asks) I met a guy in hospital who,like me was in there due to a bike accident, he recounted his crash to me. Apparently he had been down the pub then on to the chinky and bought some spare ribs and popped them down his jacket. An Old guy decides that he wants to drive his car off his drive in the morning so reverses off his drive without looking, thinking that at 12am there wouldn't be anyone else out and about, just my new friend was passing. Friend and bike slam into the side of the car, breaking mates left femur, jaw and left arm, he lands a few yards away from the car and the old guy comes running over to see my mate unmoving and shed loads of what looks like blood all over his chest & face and bones poking out from the top of his jacket. Old guy passes out thinking he's topped my mate. Mate ends up on orthopeadic ward, old guy in intensive care with suspected massive heart attack. So just be carefull where you put your takeaway, you may be responsible for putting someone else in hospital!!!Quote
Finally got around to getting my R1 bottom yoke and Fazer stem to an engineering company to get the stem knurled, pressed into the yoke and then pinned, should be done by the end of the week.

How many miles of top roads would you say are in the vicinity then?Nick - good effort, i knew you could do it, only just noticed that you of all people dont have a rear hugger, actually looks better without one but all the winter riding you do i thought it'd be essential.
I was there about 2pm , black fazer , the silver fazer was still parked up when I went past , I gave him a nod , how did you get on with the Tracer .quote author=pilgo link=topic=6412.msg185794#msg185794 date=1425496387]Quote from: esetest on 04 March 2015, 05:55:26 pmWent for a spin down through Cheddar gorge today , very sunny but still foccing freezing , I road tested the new Gopro camera , I was very impressed with the picture quality , I can't upload it though , file is to large , I will have to work out how to reduce the size of the file .[/qsuote]did you park up and sit in the sun about half way up the gorge, about 1 30'ish ?

And, yes, it was a tad chilly out there todayloved the Tracer, very easy to ride, great brakes, nice riding position, im 99 % certain im going to be getting one, I have a deposit down on the last black/grey one at Fowlers but me being me I still have this little voice in my ear saying 'dont do it' I was worried about getting back on my ickle Fazer but I really enjoyed the ride home, I guess a new, non square rear tyre helps with that enjoyment !! So if it wasnt you I wonder if its anyone else off here ?
