Checked up on Skippernick in Bristol, cos I know he's a bad boy and needs close watching :lol
Killed 2 birds with one stone - met someone from another forum at Bristol to loan them a tent, then on to Luke's for R6 rear shock fitting. Thankyou very much Luke, it's really appreciated :thumbup
We had a quick look round the Bristol bike show - sorry, no pics, but wasn't that much that really caught my eye TBH.
Not the best ride home as a bit too much traffic to really assess the difference, but did feel noticeably more planted, and with it now dropped 10mm on the forks (again, thanks Luke) definitely a bit more flickable. Surprised myself by the speed I took some of those bends on the A4 at one point and eased off; I think it would have felt a little less "together" at that pace before. Needs a trip to those lovely Welsh roads to really get a feel for it, hopefully coming up at the end of this month.
