So, I was out the house for almost 14 hours, I reckon about 4 of that was actual riding!!!  :b   282 miles for me, the longest ride I've ever done.


Great day out, thanks to Red I've got to get some work done to the bike, anyone any good at removing 2 busted exhaust nuts (didn't check them when I bought the bike  :'( )


Some great roads and great company, nice to put more names to faces.


Highlights for me, Bananagate, the MV Augusta F4 (wow that was bloody gorgeous!), Red chatting up the blue rinse brigade, probably ruining some Bride's day by escorting her horse and trap ride to her reception with 6 noisy bikes and the young girl on the push bike passing us all parked up at Southsea saying "fazer, fazer, fazer, fazer, fazer, fazer.....it's a fazer day out"  :D











morning harry......plenty of help on here reguarding those exhaust studs...nothing to worry about,being the middle two makes them easy to get too...if you end up boring them out.....take the pipes off and see how much for the stud is left...theres quite a few options to fix,start a new thread in the 600 section and we`ll soon have you fettled.......nice meeting you,and another boxeye in the lofo`s is always welcome.....mmmm just noticed i had the map upsidedown    :o :o :o :o ... :lol [size=78%] [/size]

To be honest Red, I'm not the greatest with a spanner and I don't have the time/knowledge or skill to do it myself.  It will got into a garage to get those studs out.

 Nice 400/4 red, always liked them, though the rd was faster, like to see a pic of your x7, my mate had one years ago, great bike.

Liked the Zed, un-restored and still being used,
 
Dazza, what can I say, wasn't the right tarmac, the wind was in the wrong direction, the stars weren't aligned, plus I'm a fat git  :lol

Big mullet in dockyard they swarm around the ships. People pay to fish in the dockyard!   I might be able to give a few foccers a tour of the upper deck.
