What a day!

This bike is a poster bike, have just finished cleaning the bike and am concerned with the amount of bugs that are on the bike. So I have revised my riding schedule for this bike to be Sunny weather with no outlook for rain for the next week AND there are NO bugs around.

Seriously it won't be an October bike and having just ridden it to Tauranga and back, it is more a quick dash somewhere for a coffee and for me to really drool over,

So you'll have to keep the old one for the October ride then...

The old one has only done 162,000 kms so a few more to go. Have some rides this year one in Feb, another in March and then October. Of course there will be the practice rides in between.

Those photos dont do the bike justice.

What about the oil filler plug, was it still in your garage or did you lose it?

Oh, yeah nice new bike.

What a wife, this is her gift for me.

The story goes that the bike arrived in a crate late Tuesday at Maidstone Yamaha, it was missing the belly pan so Mac contacted Australia to get one (only option is yellow) spray painting was arranged and it arrived late this afternoon at home.

What a wife . . . . . .

So the trip to Tauranga will be the running in, not over 6000rpm, 4th gear @ 5000rpm = 100km.

Yep What a wife....how do I find one of these???????

Oh, yeah nice new bike.

The plug was right where I left it and the wife kindly dropped it in to me at work, oh and a little oil container as well.

The Bumblebee has 1380kms, this Sunday riding thing is rather different.
