I know lots of "Tossers" have done this and I have been talking about it for long enough so finally on Wednesday, me and my mate Boycie (Explorer 1200) set off from Larne at 5am. By the time we got to Sligo for breakfast I was starting to feel tired and I didn't think I'd make it so I can now say that Red Bull really does work as I was wired for the rest of the day.
Enjoyed the roads out west and the weather for once was fantastic round Clifden. Killarney was very hot but we hit our first rain coming into Cork and then the whole of the south coast was covered in heavy sea mist.
We then hit heavy fog at Dublin which we had until Banbridge before getting back to Larne at 1.30am.
I took the 800GS which was brilliant (comfort seat fitted) and it even managed 61mpg. Could possibly have done it quicker solo but it was good to talk on the long boring bits.

but found one on the outskirts. Topped up again at the motorway services at Lusk (24hr). I would imagine if you went clockwise you would have no chance finding fuel out west at night
