It's not often that I download pictures from this thread, but this one is fantastic. Looks like it was taken with a proper camera, not a mobile phone? What a stunning bike.

Today was a good day at Brands GP

Whilst I had to look again, I'm not going to be too hard. It's a tick box when you gum up a tyre for a first time. Up their with knee down.

Even if my used kleenex From this cold I have look more gummed up.

Cheers, taken with a Galaxy S6 Edge, the camera is awesome compared to my previous phone.

Doesn't the exhaust come through the top of the seat unit on those? Will it not melt the luggage?

I applaud the commitment though.

I thought it did too, but looks like there is an exhaust coming out the bottom of the fairing in front of rear wheel (I might be mistaken!).

Bloody good work John - looks great that, Arrow system too and as you say, good value to the usual Akra set up...

A pic from last night just past Stump Cross Caverns in North Yorkshire, I pulled over and turned around here and headed back to the Sun Inn as the road had just been surfaced with chippings. Second ride out since passing my test on Wednesday - loving it so far!

Was down there last Saturday on the R1 which way do you head into cheddar from Bristol?

Past the airport then left at Churchill I think.

Ah same as me. Didn't know if there was a more scenic route!

a) I hope it don't snap
b) I hope he manages to keep the front on the ground.
c) Good effort though !!
