Just ordered a Givi top box frame and plate (251F & M3 plate)- will arrive in new year though

My Renntec grab rail is up for grabs if anybody needs it for a few pennies? They are about £65 new so £25 plus del? Just PM me. Also I'll put by stock (bafflectomied) exhausts on eBay soon if anybody interested? Griff.

well i checked the diary, work roster and weather report and it looks like today is the last day for a while that i wont be either at work , drinking, doing stuff with the kids or its raining so i cocked my leg over the old storm and went out for a quick blast . not really very good weather , roads felt greasy but the bike felt as good as ever

also gave me the chance to try out my new lid which i got at a very tasty price the other day. very pleased with it. they were advertised as quiet and indeed it was , comfy too.

mighty morphing power rangers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!........

having said that, i've always liked the look of roof lids, and the blue and white colour scheme.....

Sorry to ruin your dream, but the F111 is a swept wing bomber, the Mig is likely to be chasing you !

Ordered bits to balance carbs - got a 5mm brass screw and vacuum hose from those nice people in Belfast (Carbtune) (£5 delivered after calling them, rather than £8 for 4 plus del plus hose price). 5mm T-piece from Halfords (£1.69)

Ordered carb balance kit from ebay (£22.99).

Thanks to Al for his guide.

Ordered 4 x CBR600RR 03-06 stick coils and loom (£67 del), giving first refusal to Diabolus for the spares.

Dismantling bike a little to clean under the fairing. Happy days, isnt Christmas great!!

I've been out for a ride as well and put some more miles on the new tyres. Mostly town stuff so not overly exciting.

Why do you put Mr Sheen on your mince pies ? Does it make them taste better ?
