Looks great Mike,

Cracking photies

Dave's a wuss

Have to have a run up if not another Storm meet, taking this in as well.

**********************************

Buggering about with clutch today, damn thing seems to be getting air from somewhere but I'm beggard if I know where :x Just get nice clean fluid through aand lo and behold, more feckin bubbles!

Got a little more clutch (well had none last week) but bite point is not far off twist grip - not enough for my liking.

Slave seal replaced last year and no sign of fluid in slave chamber so I'm assuming that's OK.

More of a tinker tomorrow, will probably replace slave cylinder & sprocket cover with spare just to see if it resolves.

Hopefully I'll get out tomorrow on her - if not might have to tap her up for a ride of Gixxer or Hornet :wink:

1st and 2nd pics are about 10 seconds apart. When you looked over to the west the weather looked crap, but on the eastern side all was sunny :)
It's only 60 miles up the road from me, and we take this route in on the way to St. Mary's Loch.
Funny you should mention St marys Loch, i might be headin Moffat way tomorrow ,and taking in the Dalveen Pass (again) :!:

We kinda decided on goin North,but my mate saw Cupasops pics from our run on Monday and said he'd like to go there instead,so,weather permitin,thats the plan :D
