Bodie - there were a few scary moments. The power wheelie went well though! Pete - I got a bit lost at Goal Post point. I think I scored an own goal.  |

Want to get her MOT'd real soon so that I can ride her on the real road. I'm pretty sure (without checking) the last MOT was done some years back now possibly three years ago. Time goes so quickly.   |

Oh dear, all those grass clippings sticking up under the nos front muddy and who knows where else.
There'll be sleepless nights worrying about the damage the acidic juice from them is doing as they lurk in hidden crevices slowly eating away at anything they land on....

The whole thing was foolish...and why? Just to get a few snaps. I don't know what to do now. Advice? Part of me wants to do this again.....but stark b*llock naked. |

A major strip down,engine out, then bring specialist cleaners and polishers in (there are two in the Isle of Man, recommended by ian) to give it a serious sorting out before rebuilding it.

I've realised something. Time is going fast. Life is short. I want to ride. This is the bike I will bring to Breston Pagot if Ian McGasket actually gets the weather right this time. Oooh look......I don't think that 3.60 Metzeler can be obtained any longer. What to do.   |

I'm fitting Avon's to my 400 when the metzes have had it. As this is the one I ride a lot I'm sacrificing originality for handling, I need all the help I can get when I'm chasing Paul and Dan around.😁

You could have tyres from Concorde fitted to your bike Dave....but you'd still never catch him. I just want to be honest with you. It's my duty. |
