Well in Fave, she looks fab.
Put a set of part worn boots on mine at the weekend while convalescing and went for a wobble today to trickle. A good 90mile round trip

Got all the bits painted, lacquered and prepped go the rear end swap happening as soon as the new bench turns up at my pals. Looking forward to having a new rear shock, this is that tired now it tracks the lines in the road making slower corners a bit bonkers. Fast sweepers not an issue but not confidence inspiring in the slightest.

She’ll be off the road this winter to do what you’ve done as after 173k she’s due some love bless her. Just saving up  for fork cartridges

Nice little pootle out to Kirmington in North Lincs today. Had lunch at The Marrowbone and Cleaver, which is owned by Guy Martins Sister. Really good menu and the food was scrummy, gets very busy though.

Ooh, a red CB200. One of my first bikes and it took quite a bit of abuse! I remember a long trek up the A1 on it and nearly froze to death...

Out and about in Crete 😁😁😁
Had a load of bike parts to send to 2 chaps I know that live on Crete that own CB SOHC/4's, I fancied a few days away, so did door to door delivery service. Here are Giannis 500 and 400 in his lock up. Well loved bikes and ridden very regularly. Graham is at home on dog sitting duties 😁😁😁😁

Door to door. That's just showing off Julie. Bet the dogs  will wee in your slippers! ... Or Graham?

Only jealous. Enjoy.

Visited Sammy Millers on Sunday. Couple of very nice sohc Hondas including a 400/4.
Fantastic collection of bikes with every possible cylinder configuration. Radial 5, square 4 2stroke, v4 2stroke etc etc.
well worth a visit if you are in the area.
130mile round trip and the bikes going well.
