I get me bike back tomorrow after a long wait for parts etc. Looks like I might have to take the afternoon off to, erm, "road test" it...IYKWIM.What a chore that'll be.
Course I have to embezzle my house from myself (again) to pay the bills.

Hardening on one of the cam followers failed and took out the cam lobe as well. Needed new exhaust cam and follower. Which took a gazillion years to arrive.
Should be faster now...

A couple of us are heading to Rags for a coffee on Saturday, you can show us the way. If your bike still remembers it

Actually, I forgot. We have a comp that day so I can't go. Last comp for the year though, so maybe next time!
Took the trial run out to Raglan this afternoon - simply in the interests of checking the function of T motorcycle you unnerstand after its operation.
Seemed to go OK...all the cars got off the road when they saw me coming. Such polite drivers out that way...nuff said.

It seemed to go OK today - cut two minutes off one trip (the one along that private road, y'know?...
Funny thing: I thought I might want to go easy for a bit, what with being off a bike for two mumfish an' orl. But. As soon as I got on, the familiar red mist descended and the loony was let loose once again...
Ahh. I digress. Due to, no doubt, "chemical enhancement..." IYKWIM Mills Reef Reserve Merlot/Malbec, 2009. A good year.
I feel so much better after a ride today than I did yesterday after two months without a ride. No wonder I prefer bikes to houses.
