Daft things I did when I took my SC out for the first time...

  1. 1) Forgot that, unlike my Speed Four, it had an exhaust silencer on both sides - 1cm scratch on one can when I parked next to a wall...:rolleyes:

    2) Forgot to adjust mirrors properly before taking off. Small round bar end mirrors and a full face (well flip lid down) restricting sideways visibility, I then left it too late to merge into a RH filter lane at lights and only saw a nice reflection of a cars tyre one side and my elbow the other...:rolleyes: Luckily it wasn't that dangerous but learnt my lesson..:smile:

    3) At traffic lights on 2 lane dual carriageway - old Honda CB500(???) or something pulls up to my left and what do I do? Only roar away from the lights at full pelt until I realise I don't know the road or speed cameras, pull back a bit, Honda screams past me and away probably thinking a) "What a pratt, coffee bar cowboy!" or b) "Wow! I beat a Ducati SC 1000!"

    He was right with a) that day!:biggrin::eek:
