Well Guys n Gals after the last 2 months of the shite I have been through finally yesterday took her for her first test ride since finishing her started 2nd kick.Still the best medicine for making you feel better.Did not go far but boy did I return well happy and with the infamous grin.Ran well handled ok but rear brake needs bedding in which is no big deal.So now waiting for a few more days when its 18 degrees plus and will venture further.Runs better than my other one smooth no hesitates etc will have to have another go with the other one hmmmm.
Cheers

Looks bitsa, how was those tyres on grip ? I found that they need a good 50 miles to scrub in.

Turn the badges around Ralph  ;)
