    New wheels acquired. Will be bringing along on Tuesday.

    Feel like I'm back to square 1 again though. New bike makes me feel like a learner again..

    Grasshopper to Grasshopper, Master tells me to take very small steps,

    Master is right.

    wont take long, a couple of SASS rides, especially if you are following me and my emergency cornering/braking combination
    I use the brakes so much the bulb blu


    Yeah, Nah, wont be a 'busa just yet I think, something in the 650-800 maybe 900 size, could be a Honda Hornet they are everywhere
    and he does commute to work - gotta keep up with the Ducati's there, so maybe its a Red one (Red=faster) - maybe thats what making him feel like a learner, we will see Tues

    I am glad I asked the question about lights, the manual for the GSX says you have to remove the instrument cluster, I will have to check if there is the correct size of allen key in the tool kit.

    grasshopper awaits future lessons

    meanwhile back to Master Tigerdee the Tomato Sause Master and SASS of course, a place you can ask questions and not get shot down
    Most GSX and GSXRs can have their headlight changed without tools if you come up from underneath.

    Most faired bikes can unless they have a full skirt (collection of pieces that stop air from going up under the nose of the fairing so that all air going in goes to radiator) in the fairing.

    Tomorrow night will be cold. Wear gear to suit. Remember in the country where we ride is colder than town.

    Even basking in the glow of my new gold bits wont keep you warm.

    Ouch that has gotta hurt the pocket

    And what about demerit points? If you all ready have some they are added to the total and start all over again.

    By the way, I have put my liners in tonight ready for tomorrow.

    40 points and outside my hours = $400 , so no play lunch for me for the next month or two . My licence was clean ( had been for years so it was due to get me ) enjoy the warm coffees and hot choc after the ride
