Plan is in the making. Welcome to join up for the ride or part thereof. More the merrier. (give me someone else to blame for getting lost.)

Hi folks

Sorry I've been a bit slow on the uptake on this thread. I'm still deciding if I'm up for it. Sounds like a bloody good day though. I was a little concerned about my throttle cable, which should be going in in the next few days. Plus, I'm getting a new rear tyre on Friday and got a new battery today, so I'm slowly getting the bike ready for winter.

PLUS, I now have my other bike back! If you thought 1 gixxer looked sexy in the garage, christ, it's sheer bloody heaven in there with 2!

I was lucky enough to have a few hours to blast out the cobwebs on it today, and she's just as good as I remember - which is bloody good.

Still a few little things to remedy, but soon I can pick which one to take out. One can never have too many bikes eh?
