another Strat to act as backup for my main one whilst gigging and recording which is all starting up again.
Remember: If in Doubt use Full Throttle, It may not make the situation any better, But it will end the suspense...

Nice!

I got a replacement screen protector for the phone as I scratched the current one and it's annoying me. Also picked up the Oxford waterproof overboots, will try then tomorrow to see if they help with the cold feet.

It's nearly impossible to get worse mileage from the Supercorsa than the Bridgestone RS10s.... my mate got 70 miles on a brand new RS10 - ON THE ROAD!

He didn't have long enough with them to get confidence in them either

K7 GSXR 1000..

Very talented bloke but also ridiculously mental. I could just about keep up with him if he let me but I was riding as hard as I would on track (I was 19 or 20 at the time).

He no longer rides like that and I only did it a handful of times. Exhilarating but in the way of - "holy f*ck I'm still alive!"

Glad to say I stopped riding like that very soon after I started to ride like that.

I received a Cyclops H4 headlight bulb for the GT, supposed to be brighter than what's in there now and have a legal beam pattern... The last few rides after dark have shown the headlight is not the best.

Making memories Blade, chances are they’ll remember that day for decades to come and it’ll colour their relationship with their own kids. You did a good thing. ;)

I've got the same. Let me know you think. The new software makes a big difference.
