I know what you mean projects are always best done in winter, always too much other stuff to do and enjoy in summer.

Perkles. Stick on some soft luggage, a gel seat, sat nav, lower the pegs and stick the suspension in comfort mode and it makes a very fast sports tourer

Thinking outside the box, as ever, Blade! What next; grasstracking on it? Was that you up by Mottram roundabout last Friday about 3.30?
My name is Buff, and I have Carbon Fibrosis.

Plenty of sunny evenings around this week. Any chance of escaping for a blast ?

I know what you mean I have to clean mine tonight after Germany and it looks like a mass fly grave yard.
Going to pull the air filter too as that was virtually completely blocked off with dead flies last year.
