Beautiful.
I just find that they passively aggressively get revenge. Be careful.
Winging it's way to him the silent treatment, sullen behaviour, little digs cast up from a conversation many weeks or years ago and hours of asking what's wrong, you OK, what's up, before the eruption....and I'm gonna sit in the other room. I just find that they passively aggressively get revenge. Be careful.

She said previously that if I ever brought another ‘bike into the house - she’d leave me . Well she’s still here , so I’m married to a liar and just a few bikes to compensate ....

Mine from the same dyno is 242 at the wheel. With the Cat, just had a remap, air filter and PC and mapped to my easust I have. So no changes to the supercharger gearingHow rideable is it? Very easy to ride. As easy ass my Blade just with 80bhp more. If you want silly speeds twist the throttle. it's easy at low speeds also.

My 2011 blade was 164 at the wheel on the dyno. Madness with the H2. current power with lots of mods on the H2 is around 325 at the wheel. With remap, velocity stacks, added intercooler, gear work, straight through exhaust and more.
God know's why you need that.
An older photo but finished (pretty much) the work on this last night so now looking to get out and about on it.
Anyone in the south west have on and fancy showing me how not to fall off so often? Planning to go to a practice track just south of Bath in the next couple of weekends if I can.

Saw that on the West Country Trial Rider page last night, unfortunately Bath is somewhat Northern to us in deepest Cornwall.
Like others have said, get an ACU licence for a tenner, have a go at the Novice route on some local club trials, they're a friendly lot, you'll soon get chatting & will establish official/unofficial practice areas/time from other riders - basically what I did!
Get an open face helmet, can be got for £50, but just as important, Trials boots (not moto-x or Adventure) - I made the mistake of using MX boots for my first trial, trials boots give so much more feel and are better for walking in when viewing sections.
Enjoy!

I have a friend in Cornwall and may take the bike down to visit at some point so you never know...
I won't get the ACU licence til I have done a practice and realised I actually want to continue, money is going to be tight for the next few months so trying to spend the least, while using my vehicles the most!
I already have some trials boots from when I had an enduro bike, it's just the open face helmet I need but see above! I know you shouldn't but looking to get a secondhand helmet if I can.

This bloke lives up the road from me and has seriously impressive bike collection.
Here he is having the sport pack fitted to his rcv at padgetts
You have to doff your cap at Honda for selling a bike like that to the public.Here he is having the sport pack fitted to his rcv at padgetts
I would have loved something like that when I was 25 - 35 years of age.
Anymore photos would be nice
