    Very dirty today. Pulled down to local bike meet place later and all the bikes were gleaming (probably ridden about 5 miles to get there) and mine was shit high.
    Didnt take long to clean. Sprayed on muc off type stuff and hosed it down. Im not one for meticulously cleaning bikes. Will be dead before it rusts I imagine

    I do love my bike, but some of the criticisms I find fair. The TFT clocks are useful (kinda), but I do actually prefer the style of the clocks on the modern bonnie derivatives. They could even have just sexed up the TFT with something other than a plastic surround. In fairness, not something I really considered until he mentioned it, but now he has, I do agree :rolleyes:

    I watched it at the time, and can't remember the other things he mentioned, but I think I agreed with most of it. At the end of the day though, it's worth pointing out that bad bits, because if they don't/won't bother you, then you know it's the bike for you!

    106 years and a few horsepower apart. Soldiers leave Saltash Cornwall on the slipway that remains. The ferry has long gone!
