Took the wheels off and pot then in the car, along with a brand new pair of M7RR's.
All due to having zero psi and a screw in the rear.

Hit a blind crest at close to 90mph, got airborne, both wheels off the deck, I reckon I cleared the hill as I landed in a puddle, landed so hard I decked the bike and threw the water over my legs and the back of the bike. Then saw Monty has pulled over, wetting himself laughing, so I did the same.

Nice..
Going to have to raise a support ticket on the forum though, all the photos posted recently seem to have a green tint.

Took the wheels to have new boots fitted. Now, a quick clean up while the wheels are out.
