Congrats on the purchase though I guess? :P

I did a very similar thing in February. Miserable weather so I thought I'd do a bit of tyre kicking. Ended up with a 97 Fireblade. Kept the Fazer for Autumn/Winter duties. In fact, I've just cleaned and prepped the Fireblade for its hibernation and readied the Fazer for riding yesterday.

Hi Loz
Next time you (or anyone else) have that urge, if it's a bike you don't really need, can I have it? Pleeeeease?!  :lol
(How about getting the urge for a KTM, 690 or bigger?  ;) )
