Re: What you watching?
... there are signs out warning people to steer clear, no fatalities since I was a kid, but most years there's at least one dog that gets a bite for being curious/stupid. Makes my blood run cold and they've been about since I was a kid....

The Triple flies out of Craner and being really light means that it's a piddle of pee to shift up early, pin the throttle open, laugh like a loon through Schwantz and carry far too much ...

Re: Kwacky's 675 Street Triple

This gives me a chance to focus on the bike rather than the roads (if that makes sense) My initial concerns where the SD's reputation for being a bit of a handful, coupled with the fact it is shod with supercorsa's and it wasn't exactly warm. The first concern was laid to rest very quickly, ...

Re: New tyres for the Multi - Z8s?
I had them on the Z1000SX when we did France. They really suited the bike. I'm going back to them after the 01s
Decent mileage as well as being sportier than the other touring tyres out there. I think I got about 8,000 from mine.

... between Remain and Leave. I do think Ms May has overplayed how popular she thinks she is within her own Party. We could see a new political party being formed just for this election. Corbyn needs to make his mind up, either he steps down now or he takes up the Remain banner and fights under it.
