... make that $5...can you pay it today??" "Er...I dunno...can you break a hundred??" Oh, how we laughed!! All said and done though....yes, most are dressed like a bunch of gay trapeze artists riding with a seatpost and no saddle.

If I was going to do anything like that I'd get a brand new set on before going..

Keep that tyre though and get it put back on when the France tyre is done for

... it,I know for a fact if I had a degree I could earn twice as much money in sales but without one many companies would throw my cv in the bin even though I could do the job.You can also work in many different industries as long as you are degree educated. Although the bike shop thing sounds romantic ...

Oooooohhhh never though of that. Bonus

Can't honestly say the K&N roars more than the Oem filter.

But then I guess Kawasaki always sound good on induction roar as stock anyway so hard to improve.

Bike felt crisper though

... i had got the wrong one. Quick drive down to get some of the right stuff. 300v 15.50 Motul Factory line. Bloody expensive stuff. Nice to see though that the recommended oil capacity is 3.5litres and once it was topped up to the max line there was 0.5l left in the 4 litre bottle.

Been to watch jungle book ,very good film scared my five year old though,out in the s2k for a countryside blast later this afternoon

Took the long way home. Couldn't believe that my hands were cold. Summer gloves should be worn this time of year.

Good ride home though, the SX handles surpisingly well for a big girl.

Tonight I'm home alone looking after my girlfriend's brother, might go to the gym or go for a run when i get home from work though

Tomorrow I'm meeting a few people in town so probably go to the gym in the morning

Sunday, possibly going on a rideout...

... in faster, etc, etc. It's pretty mad that a modern 600 with a bit of tuning (exhaust, air filter, remap) has the same power as 1000cc V-twins though

Received my new tyre warmers and second-hand Sidi Vortice Boots

Very content with my purchases. Unlikely to use them before July though

so were back in industrial recession today,to be honest since Easter it has gone deathly quiet at work,projects for capital expenditure have been been on hold and companys have basically stopped spending
Suns out though

... that won't happen!! But it is nice to here that these houses are being built and reserved for homeless families. Unsure when they will be ready though Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

Never been pulled for it but even when I got pulled while wearing it they didn't say a thing - even though it was at night.

I don't wear a black visor now anyway, I wear a light smoke - useable in every condition

Looking good.

I think the rising sun is a bit too high to be shining out your arse though.

I agree with you there - coach drivers are terrible, as are taxi drivers.

HGV drivers are usually pretty good though. as are Birmingham bus drivers. Both sets of drivers normally spot me and move out of the way for me.

Don't you need lights at night time though

... once or twice a year and in the space of about 24 hours, would build a house. I only went the one time....only time I've been down to Mexico (although I've thrown stones over the border on numerous occasions!)....and sure enough, in the space of one day about eight of us put up this small (obviously!) ...

... it might just be the shim stacks in the forks. Will get MCT to look at it when I get around to upgrading the suspension. Really glad I took it in though, the mech took it out for a spin and came back saying that front tyre is horrible why are you riding around on that. School boy error, on closer ...

If I wasn't at Pembrey and I had tax and a working front brake light switch I would have likely joined you...

Have a great day all - don't buy anything in the AV8 though, bloody expensive !!
