MOT prep for me, including stripping rear suspension linkage, fitting a hugger and general tinkering.
All building up to a Blast / Test run on Sunday to the Lakes.

Now where's the eyes covered / full throttle smiley ?

Nice one chap.

I'm a lose-cannon this W/E as the missus has gone abroad...I'm wondering whether to go to Snett for BSB...although not sure which day. Doubt I'll go on the bike due to (potential) petrol shortages/queues en-route plus the A140 has a blanket 50 limit (IIRC) which won't be much fun & CBA to find another route

Petrol shortages....??? Only 1 in 10 garages is effected, its all media hype as loads of other places to get fuel. Put it another way, only 90% of garages will be operational - say it that way and no one would bat an eye.

Agreed...perhaps 'petrol shortages' wasn't the right phrase here...for now anywaywink however we all know what happens due to the knock-on effect smash

DAS Sunday to Tuesday! Hope it doesn't rain too much. Actually no, I can handle the rain, it's the test that I'm nervous about.
Then after that I get to think about what to buy. That daytona 675 looks sweet, but not for a first bike methinks.
