Went for a blast on the 6 the misses joined me did about 45 mile it was quite cold out but a nice run follows by a as full English breakfast at the local greasy spoon I'm that stuffed I won't be eating anything for the rest of the day.
60 miles of Leicestershires best up and down and round and round roads with hardly a car in sight -- bliss -- cold bliss.
But lots of dry salt on the roads and spent as long cleaning it as I did riding it, pictures to follow tomorrow

Tell me about it! 5.00 this morning and I rode in to work as I couldn't be arsed to defrost my wife's car to move it to get to mine.
Halfway along the M6 I was thinking this may have been a mistake. Got to work and a mate said "Fuck me it's -3 out there!"
Add 90mph worth of wind chill.....

After the frosty weather a couple of days ago, I ordered some hand guards to keep the wind off. They came last night and fit a treat. Don't stick out like a sore thumb either.
Enough clearance on full lock so no worries there.
They're only cheap Chinese eBay jobbies so if they don't work I've only lost £20, but they seem to do the job ok.
The only obvious downside being the brake lever mounting bolt. It's only just long enough on its own, and putting the bracket in place meant I couldn't get the nut on fully. Not wanting to risk it vibrating loose and the lever falling off, I replaced it with a longer bolt. This meant the shoulder was smaller, making the lever a tad loose, but it'll stay on until I can get a replacement turned to size at work.
