Went out on Custard this morning, quick blat over to Rochester, past all the suckers in cages queing up due to some accident somewhere...
Took some tat off Bloo.
Did the brakes on Nue Red & put it all back together.
Put the bodywork back on Smerkin Joe, can't leave it on the floor too many size 9's & 12's attached to clumsy twots milling about tomorrow...
Took Neu Red out for a test run...all's well with Rogered Forks, Brembos & Mori pipes & cans...

Went for a spin around Ollerton, Retford area and ended up having a cup of tea at Thoresby Hall, lovely place.
So far the cct's have made me feel far more confident about distance riding, did some exploring and found some decent roads.
Think I sorted the rh switch out with some contact cleaner so the one i bought from the breaker will be up for sale.
Not too sure either about fitting these hyperpro fork springs i bought, how certain is it that they would be better than than the oem springs?
Anyway, looking at the posted pics of the grainstorm, couldn't see any silver ones, too fast for you red yellows and blues? sorry teals.

It's 100% certain to improve your handling. Ask anyone who's used them. Stop procrastinating and just do it
