Cav - I have no idea how I missed this post but only just thought about it now. I was wondering if you had messaged about this, clearly you did but i didn't see it

Thanks for the link, appreciate it

Great piece of kit. Had one on the RC8 and clutch was much better when hot.

The **** French tossers!

What the **** am I supposed to do with this other than buy a GIXER to fit it too!

It was also 14 days late.
Suffice it to say I won't be using Afam again, ever. 6 emails and 2 tickets raised with the distributor and they've not responded to any of them for over 2 weeks.

2 emails direct to Afam and a message on Facebook to ask if they could help and absolutely nothing. Not a sausage!

I've found one on eBay, so just ordered that and hopefully will be here before Friday.

The other day I had two large prints arrive of some photos I took in Cornwall, normally when I do this to put on the wall, I go with canvas prints. This time I have gone for large acrylic prints, I have to say they look mint, now I need to work out how to hand them LOL...

Acrylics are nice , Aluminium is even nicer in my opinion , you can get some really nice effects on brushed aluminium too

A roof box.

Going up to the lake district in a couple of weeks, and now we don't have the Zafira space is at a premium.

First thing we did was put my son in it!

Some very nice held race-tex gloves to replace the ones I lost. A bit pricey for my liking but hopefully they'll last.

I ll be surprised if you regret the purchase Nutz. A little pricey maybe, but reasonable money if bought in the sale and by far the best gloves I've owned.

Hope you like them and they stand up to the riggers of commuting (lol)

Through the post - a film called Zootropiclous (cant spell it) but my misses loves that film so thought I'd buy it for her! Not through the post but it's my misses birthday soon so been out shopping in Basingstoke for the day. Got her a new bag, purse, Lush stuff (tradition for birthday) and a pair of Sketchers. I still gotta pick up a little bit of choc which is tradition usually Terry's choc orange but going to swap it for ferro Rocha which is usually for christmas. After 11 years I'm changing it
