Nice wee 380km round trip on Darky over to Hastings and back yesterday. Test rode a Royal Enfield 650 twin Intercepter. Liked it very much. Easy to ride and maintenance would be easy to do by an owner. Road it around to dads at Havelock North. Uncle Barry who also road m,/cs was visting at the time. Both quite like the appearance of the RE650. After the test ride I returned to dads and chin wagged for a couple of hours.
Returned home to Palmy via HW 50, Takapua, late lunch at Ormondiville on a very comfortable couch., then on to Dannyvagas, Topgrass rd- Penfold rd etc, then over the Saddlle rd through Ashaurst and off home. Awesome day for riding.
Drained the carbs this morning to clear any crap build up. I try to do this half way between an oil/filter change, so every 2000kms on the CB550F.
