Dick, we'll have to get together for a spin some time

Yes, but I have two hours over the A66 to get to you so maybe springtime when temps have picked up a bit?
dont get diggingholes on them moors

That's what I meant, next spring perhaps. Maybe I could pop down your way sometime too, and you show me around the North York Moors. I've got a lot of exploring to do now I'm up here

Rode for the first time since Aus knocked Eng out of the world cup and coming off my little bike.
Started first time on choke and ran ragged for the first mile and then all was good.

Dropped it. :-(
Leaving work tonight in a pitch black bike park. Kicked the side stand up, wheeled it forward out of the space, kicked the side stand down (obviously not far enough) and leant the bike over. It carried on until it was on it's engine bars.
No damage at all luckily but they're heavy bastards with a full tank ain't they?! :-D

Sorn'd it and took it off the road, still for sale but in no rush and probably keep it until spring and put it back up for sale then.

Took it for a Boxing Day blast along with other WAC members (Worcester Auto Club), around the roads of Herefordshire. Found myself, on the A49, at some god forsaken place called "Aston" at around 11:30 ish, so it was me on the horn going past Slimwillys abode........

Nice dry mild day here in high wycombe so went for a bimble, A404 to maidenhead, A4 to reading, A33 to basingstoke, A339 to alton, crossed the A31 and onto the A32 too the junction of the A272...loomies, for tea and bacon rolls, did'nt stop long , onto the A272 east through petersfield, midhurst billinghurst then left onto the A24 heading to box hill and rykers cafe, took a wrong turn somewhere and went the long way round

...made it though, quite a few there, another cup of tea and a raisin and cherry flapjack and back on thd bike, north on the A24, dorking and then jumped on the M25, M40 and home.....191 miles in total, a good day and a bonus this time of year

Put a lick of paint on my swingarm, caliper hangar and cam cover (side only as a test)

No going out here in Cork today. The bold Frank put paid to that

I took an old foxeye headlight apart to replace continent reflectors which no longer reflected

and replaced them with Irish,UK reflectors which I recovered from old broken foxeye headlights.

Received the Ohlins steering damper I ordered from a guy on the FZ1OA forum. Looks like new. Now waiting for the new fairing before putting the bike back together after the Dec 18th lowside. Ran the engine to make sure it's all good. That's as close to riding I'm going to do until the pain in my back goes away

Hedgetrimmer · « **Reply #5486 on:** 29 December 2015, 03:59:51 pm »

Brilliant ride today. Never thought I'd be saying that in December, especially after all the rain and flooding. I umm'd and aah'd (yeah? well you tell me how you spell umm'd and ahh'd then!

) about getting out today. There was some nice sunshine at home, but also some ominous-looking cloud around, but thought, feck it, I'm going.

Bright sunshine to just past Alston:

But turn around 180 deg, and oh dear, that's coming this way:

Never mind, press on. Started to rain higher up, but thankfully didn't develop into anything more than a light shower:

Then down the other side to Middleton (luuurrrve that road! ), and it was back into bright sunshine, and started to see a few other bikes around. Who would believe this was December in the dales?! And warm with it

:

After Middleton, I turned off for Stanhope and Weardale:

Then back home via Alston again. Don't get bored - get out!

I got everything I need and more to fix it up and a lot of the tools I need but just finding it hard to actually work on it since I split with Marina. Brings back memories which are painfull.

I was gonna sell the lot and get a different bike but a few foccers changed my mind because I have made some great friends on here including you u lazy cunt. ;-)

I'm on a phone but you can do it on a pic I'm sure.

When you do the reply thing to a message press the top right (about 9 squares I think) then it gives you options.....reply, quote, view profile etc
Press the quote part then just edit out the actual printed words and put in your own but leave in the bits that start "quote" and end "/quote" only change the words inside them

Remember and leave anything within the square brackets untouched [ ]
