Went to Swindon for a bite and a cuppa, nearly home when I noticed my bike was nodding at everyone :eek Got home to find one of the main fairing bracket bolts had fallen out! So every time I hit a bump, the whole fairing literally nodded up and down! Fortunately there are two bolts, one above the other, so it was still firmly secured to the bike. Didn't have a suitable bolt in the garage, so went to the local stealers, who came up with what I needed. I think I'll have to go over all the chassis nuts and bolts to make sure there are no other little surprises like that waiting for me. :\
Ya know, "Make sure your fairing won't fall off" is a Yamaha recommended pre-ride check!! :lol
