on the plus side I gave them the rear discs and pads I had bought and he will fit them for £50.
but the thought of the Yorkshire meet up, and the ride up there Friday afternoon with PeteL is cheering me up.
That's crazy !! I was looking for a cooper s too , glad I went with a fiesta lol [THUMBS UP SIGN]

Finally decided which bike Im going to replace my Superhawk with.
Tuono RSV4 APRC. Will be a few months yet, trying to see if I can get on a 1100 Factory.
The VTR is not leaving though. It will become my to and from work bike.
I just couldnt sell it.

i road tested my new bike yesterday. ( not the actual one) it was totally amazing to be honest, so smooth and so much quicker that i was expecting. Fully faired ( not all that keen but needs must i like to see an engine normally ) but the power delivery is so smooth and after 60 miles it was a joy. Just a long wait till July to get it.
