Finally got access to a laptop to enable me to install the Multifunction Hub and Fuel Map Switch onto the Power Commander III USB meaning I can switch between the "touring" map and the "fun" map to save fuel when I don't need the extra power

(Although I had to phone Dynojet up in the States to find out why, despite following their instructions, it wouldn't recognise the Hub was there. Turns out instead of version 2.3.1 of the firmware I needed 2.3.2!

)

Breathed a huge sigh of relief when my good friend Brian skillfully managed to not only drill out a exhaust stud that had snapped off flush when i took the exhaust off to spray the downpipes but this stud also contained a snapped off easy out.

And the great thing was that he saved the threads and did it with the engine still in the bike minus the forks and radiator.

Phew what a relief!

Fitted clear indicator lens, clear led rear light with indicators, polished the engine fins and washed it

Well weather forecast was good yesterday, so planned a small trip with a couple of mates. Did Airdrie-Callander-Oban-Lochgilphead-Campbeltown, stopped for lunch and then on way home we're back to Lochgilphead-Inverary-Callander-Airdrie.

380 ish miles and hardly got stuck in traffic. Some cracking scenery as well. What a day..

Beautiful sunny day. Left Wrexham at 9-15am, Bwlchgwyn, Bryneglwys, Corwen, Bala. Called for my mate Trev on his FZ6 Fazer. We then continued to Dolgellau, Fairbourne, to the race meeting at Tonfanau. Incredible value for money. £6 entry and 24 races to watch. Organised by the Crewe and South Cheshire M/C. They could double the entrance fee and it would still be fantastic value. It costs over £20 to watch the local football team in the Blue Square Premier for 90 minutes !
Left Tonfanau about 5-15pm, returned by same route, 134 miles, not too much traffic.
Attached a couple of photos, Bala lake on the way out, and the famous salute at Tonfanau.
Hope everybody had a great and safe weekend.

It is indeed the presselis, right on my doorstep, a lovely little road that im becoming quite used to now on the bike.

Are you local dave?, was good yesterday went up the coast as far as aber,through devils bridge,rhayader,buith wells llandovery carmarthen then home & seen quite a few fazers although the member map suggests theres not many fazers in south wales so ill need to get a hold of some flyers

Dave48 · « **Reply #461 on:** 26 May 2013, 09:41:15 pm »

No Noggy. I used to deliver to your part of the world every week for 7 years from my base in Brum-furthest up that road was Crymych & Eglwyswrw(still cant pronounce that one!) My partner lived in Swansea so most weekends I was around Gower and over towards Carmarthen-and of course we would catch the ferry from Pembroke to Rossslare for our forays to the Emerald Isle.
saw your pics of Aberaeron & Devils Bridge. Two years ago was stopping in Llandrindod Wells & went up head of Elan Valley to DsBridge on mountain road & sat on beach @ Aberystwyth eating ice cream & admiring bikes & scenery.
hope to be doing similar next weekend if weathers kind

Nice one dave, you're a well travelled man,went to the Ellan valley dams last year on the bike,very nice,im not welsh but i have covered most of wales now & north wales is very much on the cards again soon although i do worry about the number of police speed cameras & such like.

Ive also never been up round hollyhead or llanberis yet.

Or ireland actually

Plenty time though, still got a little bit of youth on my side.

Well yesterday, but ...

Took my FZS100S over to Oulton Park and back via Skipton and Colne. Lovely weather. Great ride. Home in time for a BBQ.

Had to fill up on the way back.

I reckon 200 miles.

Went for another run. think that's 6 days in a row. Everyday since its mot, making up for lost days earlier in the year. haha!

Here's a pic taken at a place called sandwick looking out to an island called Mousa. in the shadow of a hill where I'm parked but you can see the gorgeous sun we've been having the last few days!
