    Planet Honda. Usually they have been fairly good, but they have been using the apprentence on my bike. I haven't touched the fairings since it come back from the shop last Friday, so it was a bit of a nasty suprise. I had this happen before at Cyclespot with the VFR. Careless App broke a fairing and didn't not tell me. The Duck tape was a bit of a give away. This time it was not obvious and may have broken on my Sunday ride, but I'm fairly sure it is due to the bolts being too tight against the plastic.

    Talking Back From The GC

    Yep I'm a Grandmaster KB'er now Really awesome experience (even if my arse feels like I got a caneing ). Will write a full report, when I can get around to it (got some work to do to make up for all the time and money doing the GC cost me). I'm keen to do it again (Thanks to all the Rusty Nutters). I just have one query I didn't meet Hitcher there (or Mrs H), and am wondering if they made it (if not why not:spudwhat: ).

    PS: The Heavy Hamster has earnt it's self a realy name now and will from now on be refurred to as "Roxanne, The Grand Mistress":love2: (she give my butt such a good spanking ).
