Working then off to buy something that I possibly won't be able to use but it looks close on pictures... A GPR furore exhaust for a KTM 1290 adventure, brand new for £180.
I can't pass that up, and if it doesn't fit then eBay..
EDIT
Quickly slipped it on and it's a long one, but hopefully will give a nice deep tone without being too loud, the AR can gave me a headache with earplugs in.

Finding out that the new MOT laws are plain fecking stupid.
The BMW failed on a rear tyre with a gash in it. Because the system classifies that as Major it is then illegal to drive the car in the road. The car is fitted with run-flats so are designed to cope with punctures.
They guys where also telling me about a guy last week who had a dodgy aftermarket DRL. It flashed with the indicators, that was classified as Dangerous and the car had to be recovered by the AA so it could be fixed.
Getting caught driving a car with a dangerous or major fault, even if the previous MOT is valid can still land you with up to £2500 fine, 3 points, and even a ban. Plus it's all linked into the ANPR system.

Coincidentally Mrs Gees car went for MOT yesterday, i found that it’ll need a couple of front tyres in the next month when I looked at it a couple of days previously, they’re borderline legal and I was expecting a call, but it sailed through with only 1 advisory on a stained front shock. Possibly depends on the guy testing the car.
Been to see the Last Supper. Quite remarkable work of art.
I do love Milan. It’s still very Italian but slightly more cosmopolitan than most Italian cities. Just been to the Duomo square. So lively and full of people but no hassle or pissed up louts.
Italian girls have so much style without looking like they just fell out of the first scene of a porn film, which seems the English girls way these days.
Oi Vay!! This morning's cycle ride has knackered me!! Got home from just a short ride & slept for hours.
I didn't realize just how far my fitness is off.....and yet I don't "feel" middle-aged, which I definitely am......I just need someone to bring back the 80's hair metal bands. Soon.
