122 mile ride to Hayling and back with my dad. Cracking gentle ride and then had a lunch in a cafe there. Easy to get to and pretty decent roads until the A3!

I got followed this morning on the M40 by a copper on an unmarked BMW 1200RS

I clocked him when I went past so I went into full IAM mode |-)

Nothing to see here officer.

Picked the 853 up from Cornerspeed ready for Thursday trackday. The oil cooler has been repaired for the moment with plastic metal. Caned it on the way back to make sure it’s ok. Actually seems to run better with the lightweight flywheel.

Nice one Duke.

How come you have gone to Corner speed instead of usual JHP?

Would you recommend JHP?

Went to Cornerspeed as he has built his own 853 engine and actually supplied some of the parts in my engine.

JHP are brilliant too.

Corner speed are great too. Neil wants every customer to walk away a happy customer, you can't say fairer than that..

His knowledge of all Duxatis from the oldest to the newest is first class too. Really nice bloke.
