One day.....

[casperfelix]

OH there will be trust me
Nice bike and you bought the right colour
Just like mine

The right colour but the wrong bike. It's a GS! It'll run out of petrol after about 200 miles and you'll have to keep asking your mates on GSAs to stop so you can fill up .................

Yes, your very observant!

It'll run out of petrol after about 200 miles

I wouldn't know, I've not done that many miles on it yet

and you'll have to keep asking your mates on GSAs to stop so you can fill up .................

I'll have to make sure I set of with an empty tank then

Mission accomplished ! Fender Extender fitted and ACF-50 applied. Then took it out for a ride up to Ipswich to visit my mate who has my old Tiger. I now have to find how to adjust the main beam so it actually does something useful

And then you'll do all the searches and decide you must have Hid's and that's when the bling starts seriously. The must have mod for night time riding, if you're short of dosh just do the the dip beam. Excellent kits supplied by Les Wassell of this parish. Highly recommended.

First I'll try twiddling the adjuster now that I know where it is

Had my first "long" ride today. A trip over to Milton Keynes and back. Still running in so I avoided the A120 and took the B1256 between Braintree and the M11. Just over 400 miles now and the engine is feeling soother. I enjoyed a few overtakes while pushing the rpm up to 5500
