    Yip, I learned what it sounds like when ya hit the bottom of the forks, guess that's what happens when all the weight is on the front going down hill and you hit the difference in surfaces between road and bridge. Not FMS at all, gave me the heebee geebees.

    Any way cheers for the tips, I have a lot to learn, as do a few others, I guess.

    Thanks to Cbz and mowgli for their time. and the others for the company!!

    Cheers guys for getting Tracy around safely. She obviously enjoyed herself, so off to Rex's now for a beer.

    Oh yeah, the weeding was fun!

    A little extra power will help lift the front over any rough spot in the road. Even works in corners

    Had a nice wee ride up to Tiko and had lunch with Mr and Mrs 2wheeled Gasman, then we carried on up to Hastings where it was a fairly hot day. Waited 'till about 5:30 before a quiet ride home at a nice comfortable temperature, mint!
