Hmmmm... That reminds me did you ever find the paperwork for the kv75 (a8 I think) I bought off you about 5 years ago

My GS over the A1 at Wentbridge, April 1980

The same place this morning, not much change except the volume of traffic.

200 mile trip on my trusty kh400 today with BBB,Aardvark and Whitwoo . A thoroughly good day out if a little chilly.

50 Miles in Capri to have a look at a Lotus Elise!!
Ann & i did 20 mile trip on oly z900.

Done the pioneer run on thee 666 today with Clive and Andy. Epsom downs, Brighton then a long route back and stopped at box hill. About 130 miles. It's the longest ride since my ticker attack. I ache like shit but it was great. We met Pete McGuiness in Brighton. I let Clive bridges out on my bike. He said he was a bit disappointed in the performance until he got it over 7 grand for the first time. He said he nearly shit himself. He couldn't stop grinning. Fab weather and company today. Sorry Malc, forgot to take pics.

The STUNNING H2c had battery acid splatter the NEW left pipe within 30 miles

You're not seriously still using those chemistry set batteries though?
Get them binned and use the Motobatt. No acid to leak and after a winter layup they still have full charge. Definitely worth the extra tenner or so

Couldn't agree more Malcolm.

Yep, I was going to . . . . but didn't like the bright Yellow

Nor did I like the yellow but I got sick of flat or low batteries after really pretty short lay-ups and the risk of acid splash on VERY expensive exhausts.
It was the S3's that finished me with the acid batteries as the bikes are so sensitive to battery condition

Newmillerdam Wakefield. An old haunt. There always used to be bikes here in the 70s and 80s - dozens at the weekend. Now it's always deserted except for me occasionally. I feel like a ghost. Where did those days go?

Thats some serious brakes on that LC james..

We went out this afternoon and did about 70 miles just pootling around



Had a pint at the Hurt Arms in Ambergate.

6 Triples went to Ashford bike show, B/H Monday.

Nice evening, short ride to Brecon Beacons, [/URL[URL=http://s1112.photobucket.com/user/3styn/media/IMG_1196.jpg.html]
running in after re-sleeved cylinder & new piston, done 50mls, so far so good.

MoT passed and a nice ride out in the countryside, don't get any better than that
