Started rebuilding Zensen's engine last night and with any luck I will have the engine finished in the next day or two. Due to me being paranoid about getting the parts in time before the next round I have managed to end up with a spare conrod, complete crankshaft and piston, rings etc. This is a good thing as it starts to build up spares.

With TT bookings and plans well underway and the drama of last weeks puncture(s) done and dusted with a new Storm 2 Ultra fitted, Steve & I were off on another ‘Multi-purpose’ ride…..for him it was just a conditioning ride for the Southern Cross, but for me it was conditioning for the TT2000, testing/familiarization for the GPS and the wish to put 2000Km on the bike to do the 108,000Km service and change the front tyre prior to the TT.

After the distractions of Christmas, then changing bike, three weekends ago was getting the new bike, putting the Givi items on it, then two weekends the weather was terrible, so I caught up on my blogs.

This long weekend just past was finally a proper opportunity to get out and clock up some km on the BMW. This started perfectly on Saturday working all day… wait… that wasn’t the plan. I had to baby sit a server through some issues so did some catch up on blog posts. ...
