I'll see you at the Ace Exupnut, and don't forget your motion potion tokens this time. :lol

BBC says warm, dry and cloudy but the forecast has a habit of changing a couple of days before.

Trying to make it - we'll see how poorly the bike is. All the motorway riding recently has made the handling worse than it was before. Its in desperate need of attention otherwise I'm pretty sure it will fall apart during the rideout... that or I will be some 10 or 20 miles behind you lot poodling along behind some stupid Nissan Micra or Honda Jazz  :rolleyes

Might not make this one after all, got a long weekend so was thinking of stripping carbs and giving them a clean out... Maybe next time when it's coming East again :)

Hmmm, yes, struggling to find some really nice twisty routes out west - this may become a tour of the Cotswolds instead!

Very true but its not very nice when it wiggles in the corners as well :|

It's not very confidence inspiring at the moment. Sort of praying that it definitely is the head bearings as if it isn't then it means more money :(

Sounds more like a suspension problem to me?
