    Thats what really matters in the end.

    It really sucks being stuck at home sick dammit
    Sucks being stuck at home Bones !
    Sick ? Awwww ppl get used to it eventually and take ya with a grain of salt !

    I do miss tinkering with my bikes ! Got the 1050 out on the deck ready to ride now (33 hrs early lol) thought i'd get it out, check it over, lube etc And yep thats all i did ! Check the Radar detector works and then ummmmm
    Then i have mate who has two classics sitting there and all he can say is, fuck it would be nice to get out for a ride (after i told him to bring the nortons down to me 3 months ago) But there's still a few things to finish on it !
    (Insert Tui add here) same line last summer !
    Some like to have the classics to say they have classics, others ride classics !
    Kudos to ya man !!!
    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Bowls can wait !

    Well all is well with the JadedBlade now. Had a loose connection on the battery terminal. fixed. charged it up all day at work and even managed an oil change at lunch.

    Lets see you (not your guy, any mates, a random passerby you happen to grab off the street or a bikeshop) change your oil and filter from roll in to roll out in under 20mins Ms Danica Shiny toys Duranzcyk. I'll let you use a laptop so you can ask the Bladeblunter's permission.

    Bourbons to the winner?

    A ton more bikes out already this week. Me and Dave (MV Agusta F4 Godbike) left work one after the other, then I saw 4 bikes come out of Camp Rd tonight. The filthy Bladebender, her mate on the GSXR and 2 Ninjas. Good times this summer!!!
