DS asked me to post this video. It was surprisingly made and paid for by Honda UK. Please don't shoot me down in flames anyone, I am merely the unpaid, discount-less,  messenger. He wants as many people to see it as possible.

We all have our views but personally, if this opens in 2015 then it will be one of the highlights of my year! Suffolk is a nice county to visit anyway. One of the best holidays myself and Cathy had was to visit Suffolk (pick up a frame from Hales Honda  ;D) , then on to Bournemouth, then Somerset, then Gloucestershire then  Ironbridge and finally Liverpool.

That would be great Pete you are always welcome but Leiston is  miles from me .. about 210 to be precise!

just Googled the location,it looks like I need to check the brakes incase I overshoot into the Northsea !!

about 240 miles each way for me,any B&B near there?

I guess he located there so all that visit run big miles on their Hondas,and he sells more spares !!




but,maybe I will take some time out and visit

It looks like a  few of us live very near to Nuclear power stations, Dungeness power station is about 1/2 mile down road from me, maybe there is a link between SOHC Honda owners and Nuclear power emissions (other than glowing in the dark that is) ;D ;D ;D. Leiston 300 mile round trip for me.
