Thanks for the welcome. Love a bit of banter. P***taking is an essential part of it all. Loving the feel and sound of the Storm though. I may have to change the bars at some point because I'm a tall lad and the wrists ain't what they used to be.

You are in a beautiful part of the world. We used to holiday up there when our kids were younger. We have many fond memories of Beamish and Bywell SG.

Well that will keep him very busy! Bit of a trek for babysitting duties though.

Been busy with the bike lately. I've overhauled the rear brake calliper, replaced the brake fluid and fitted a braided hose. Got fronts to do. Got my exhaust system off for a tidy and I've set too polishing my rear wheel rims. General cleaning and lubricating is constant and I'm planning for MCCT fitting in the near future. Pity I can't show photos due to lack of posts.
