After 5 weeks waiting i finally have my Nitron rear shock preload adjustment tool........complete setup paradise is almost within my grasp.....1 more night shift and i can enjoy some time off and tinker with the bike and get out and enjoy. 8) 8) 8)
Easiest way to go fast........don't buy a blue bike
to try to avoid the predicted showers yesterday,instead of going to wales,i headed a bit more east,picked one of the 8 white horse's of wiltshire and headed for it. grat trip on my usual 'somewhere to head' route A361 from shepton mallet towards frome,along the A362,onto the A36,turn off onto the great b390 chitterne road then left at the juntion onto the A360 towards devizes then the A361 towards wroughton,saw the white horse on my right after the stones at Avebury, think it was called Hackpen hill.
great views of the rolling fields
then back home the same route,caught the showers from nunney onwards but dont mind them when im heading home to be honest,except getting stuck behind a lorry heading towards the local quarry-my bike is now more grey than black from all the shit he was kicking up/off his truck.
what a great bike the fazer is.nimble,light,fast enough when needed without being ballistic and with the Beowolf exhaust she sounds great. winter plans are a belly pan and new fork internals/oil. great day. 8)

Monday went to Pompei
Today went to Guzzi Mueseum in Mandello Del Lario on Lake Como, as expected it was shut, just like most of the rest of Northen Italy.
Need to get my Le Mans sorted and go again on that, any takers for next year??

No Mick, not the good lady, literally got a mile down the road and just started my tyre warming routine when I passed this young lady who had broken down. So, being the gentleman I am I offered to help her on the condition that she took off her clothes and Sat on my bike for a few photos.
Of course this sort of thing happens all the time in my little pretend world. :lol
Mind you the truth is probably just as good.....got a mile down the road, just started my tyre warming routine and came past this young lady doing a photo shoot.
Waved as I went by but after another mile just thought it was too good an opportunity to let go by.
So I turned around, went back and.... Well, it became my photo shoot for the next few minutes.
The week before around about the same area I came across a naked man standing in the middle of the road. As I got nearer he disappeared behind his car. :eek
Needless to say, I kept going on that occasion. :b
