    I wouldn’t mind a go on the RS one but scared i'll like it too much!
    I've invested a lot of money in carbon and nik-naks on mine and she’ll not let me do it again.

    Can't remember last time I cut a ride short but today I did.

    Had planned to explore a new backlane I noticed that might connect two of my regular roads so expected to be out for 2-3 hours but returned after 1.

    Temp dropping to 1.5 wasn't the problem, but patches of really dense mist in places were.

    Hope I'm not turning into one of them there 'fairweather bikers' ;)

    Weather here in Cheshire was a white out this morning. Had to go out in the car and would not have fancied it on the bike. Where abouts were you riding today?

    Well, I bloody did it!

    I fitted my healtech gear indicator to my 955 Speed Triple!

    And, not only did I fit it; I didn't have any issues.

    And AND...It bloody works as well!

    Well chuffed.

    Got a few bits from motone arrived this morning. Fitted the lay flat gauges and relocated the ignition. Wasn’t actually to painful to do. Also got a few of the quick release parts they do. Very impressed with the quality of the bits.
    Also awaiting arrival of the stage 2 kit from TTP. That could be a bit more emotional than tonight’s antics
