130 mile demo on the new Multi 1260s. Rather good, but a few glitches they need to fix..... 1. Cruise Control set to 70 = actual speed of 75mph?? 2. A real bitch to get into neutral! 3. A strange surge when overtaking in 3rd gear, just after i rolled off? Not the day for testing speed of direction changes and outright performance due to poor road conditions, but definitely a stronger engine and quicker than my current 1200s. Will i change......let's see, i'll ride again in better weather and make my decision! Review over..
Tidied the garden, washed the vans, put the 'big' reg plate on and the baffle back in on the bike ready for its MOT on Monday.
Just clocked the Daily Mash's scoop on the Royle Family Royal wedding off after Meghan realises Harry not Ed Sheeran THE royal wedding has been cancelled after Meghan Markle discovered Harry is not actually Ed Sheeran. Markle was introduced to Harry as a ‘rich, famous, ginger Brit’ and assumed that could only be her favourite pop star. When Harry realised the confusion, he maintained the illusion by pretending Prince Charles was Simon Cowell and Fergie was ‘Adele without any make-up’. A palace insider said: “We thought it was weird she called him ‘Ed’, but maybe it was some kind of pet name. “He’d claimed he’d bought his working class family a palace with all the royalties from Galway Girl, but that he wasn’t allowed to sing her any songs because technically that counts as a concert and he’d have to give his management ten million pounds. “I think she realised a few weeks ago but it was all a bit awkward by that point. “Luckily she has since met Ed Sheeran and is now engaged to him.”

Started building this... 1:8 scale should keep me busy for a while. Our 6 year old "master builder" has difficulty keeping his cotton pickets off it.
Managed an enjoyable if somewhat cold ride out this morning round West Berks and Oxfordshire. Sat at the PC this afternoon booking flights and hotels for a social visit to Cartagena in March and 3 days on track at Almeria in May. This retirement lark is a hard life Andy
Been trying to fit chinese plastics to the gixer. As half the bodywork didnt make it back from Snett, nor did the fixings, and with an ever so slightly bent subframe it isnt easy....then bloke on the of the new lugs and found Suzuki loved to use screws and not bolts in fitting the headlight to the fairing I used to love spending an afternoon doing this stuff. No, it makes me consider just sticking the lot in a skip and wiping out the cost. #hadenoughofbikes
