Found out it's quicker to get through Brum city centre on a bike than in an ambulance with sirens and lights blaring. He went one way, I went another and ended up about 300m ahead of him.

Sold the ZX6R tank and some other bits. He's a racer so wanted some spare parts, so the stock lever, screen and clock surrounds have gone as well as my old brake discs, which I was going to throw away. He's doing a set of supercorsa scrubs for £60 so I've asked for some photos.

Plonked the missus on the back of it and zipped down to Suffolk for a rather tasty breakfast/lunch, then zipped back.

The missus loved it!

Took the long way home, but's clearly harvest time as I encountered a total of 4 tractors this evening.
