What wind? The merest zephyr dude, it’s only a problem when you run out of lean angle on the straight bits…

Nice to meet you too. Good to hear about the KTM, was definitely on my list a couple of months ago, maybe next time. And fer fuck’s sake get that 14 sorted, thought some bastard was taking pot shots at me.

I was fine with that. I has having more problems when the wind wouldnt let me have a lean angle on the corners.

Mate I had a Mk111 Zephyr in the late '80s and it was nowhere near as brisk as that
LOL...the '14 is "sorted out"...but I suppose I could install some block off plates,just for you you realise

Ah, think I see your problem. That 14's not a ford see mate, not supposed to have a 460 quadrajet carb and a 10" coby muffler. The chromed grease nipples and fluffy dice are fine however.

Good to see everyone and meet some new people. Lucky old AJturbo got to meet everyone for the first time for the third time! The man's a goldfish!

Especially nice to see DMTD there on his 14. Looks very nice in black. The bike looked quite good in black too.

eh???.... who the hell's that guy in the mirror????

Hey, great to meet you guys and put faces and bikes to names. Looking forward to another ride sometime soon.

Note to self: do something about embarrassingly wide chicken strips - perhaps by learning to ride
