Was at work this morning and made up an excuse to take a half day from my annual leave. Glad I did!

Great afternoon Seb. Made better by the fact that I was supposed to be in work!

My error vtrkidda, it was Goddard Road that runs from the A628 (Woodhead Pass) to Winscar reservoir and not the A616. A great road for storms.

All good thanks mate. I put new Dunlop Qualifiers on her as well so taking it easy for a while but the bike is running really well. I will need to adjust the suspension, having fitted the Penske shock as well as the USD front, but it's promising thus far. And I really like the way it looks with the braced swingarm as well. Bling victim, moi, surely not! :beer:

So how would you cope when tanking along one day you hit a bump & the whole bunch flies off?

Last year I met up with Tony Mons at his local biker cafe, there was a guy there who had lost his keys out of the ignition, it hadn't turned the bike off just lost his keys. To that bike & his Harley & house ect ect.

I would have thought that all that weight hanging off the one key cant be doing the barrel much good. Or your top yoke for that matter.

Oh and whats wrong with your pockets?
