Yay finally got my bike back today after nearly 3 weeks in the shop :-)

This weekend I am so going riding! If its fine, I might be heading to Hampton downs to see a mate drive his Porsche around the track if anybody is wanting an outting on Sunday - if its shit I ain't going though!

I get mine back hopefully Saturday with the new 'new' pipe attachment.
Three weeks ah?... did you get a fairing fitted?..

Nah service, with an autotune feature and quickshifter for the PCV installed on it. Was waiting for shift rod for 2 weeks

Fricking weird, changing gears now with throttle on an no clutch Real head messing stuff, so smooth though.

New pipe attachment ?

Its not something you should use to excess. I find 1 bottle between 2 to be best.

Better of course if shes cute.

Correct..the shorty was located right under the right foot peg, sounded emmense but I would never get used to the constant subaru sound my helmet...the new pipe will be located near the rear set.

The shop has sold a new FZ6 that the shorty will go on (cos the new owner wants it)
They have also got a sold sticker on a new R6 so they are doing ok with sales at the moment it seems.
I currently have a R-15 in the garage...mean as loaner..
