Finally some decent weather I can go out without getting wet & blown to ****, Having to dry out, Bikes Filthy etc

Anybody else out today & is anybody going to The Vic tonight ?

Was only thinking yesterday that I hadn't seen you on here for a while mate. Today looks glorious, I will have to see if I can get out of work early

To busy either messing with my bike or riding it, Done over 2k already & not had it long at all. Go to 2-3 meets a week as well as my normal riding, Not even got a motor anymore although I have a few for sale.
I'm just chuffed to bits to be able to go out today & not get wet or blown to ****, Am sick of drying out.

It wasn't as warm as it look on my ride to work this morning, fingers were frozen by the time I got to the office!

Warmed up lovely here with unbroken sunshine & very little wind. Got all my chores out the way with a bit of overloading to my topbox & panniers, Just had some fodder & now it's time to go play for a couple of hours. Then it's dog walk more food & off to a bike meet laters. :cool:

No idea, plenty of pops and bangs coming back down the rev range though, certainly puts a smile on my face

Indeed, definitely looks to be a town bike though. Looks horrendously uncomfortable!

I've got an SC Project exhaust on mine and it pops and crackles like a good 'un.

It's massively comfortable - having come from ~7 years of sports/superbikes, it was glorious; even the wind blast is do-able.

Tops out at about 120, even then the wind isn't unbearable, but you do have to actively push forward into it, ooh err misses! But your typical blatting speeds of 80 or so are fine.

Perfect bike imo, plenty of go and show, and you can ride it all day long, without the usual racing crouch aches and pains
