  1. I HAD TO go to the Metro Centre this morning. And I mean HAD TO. I usually avoid shopping like the plague, even more so on a Saturday. Jesus Christ, if ever I needed reminding why, I had it reconfirmed this morning.

    (Not actual shots, but the story of my day so far) :mad:

  9. Well I’ve been out and about on the scrambler.

    First off I met SWMBO at the new house we’ve put a reservation on (still need to sell mine if anyone is interested :) ). Managed to get inside for a look around and visualise where we’d put our furniture. Which was nice.

    After that we went to an artisan bakery/cafe for a latte and a savoury. Which was also nice :)

    After that SWMBO buggered off home and I went for an 80 mile ride. It was very cold but I was well wrapped up and toasty. I’m loving this bike more and more.

  18. Just 'adjusted' :innocent: the side stand to fit the new belly pan with side stand aperture as it was catching a bit. As it didn't rain as forecast I dragged the bike onto the decking to flush the cooling system with water and refilled with Motocool. It's cooling down now for a final top up.
    All I need to do now is fit the 'proper' battery and ditch the Lithium one and swap the wheels over again back to the road tyres - hopefully a photo session tomorrow if I can be arsed with it's slicks on along with it's stable mate road version :). Then it sits and waits out the application for registration :worried:
    I think it's my favourite bike at the mo :thinkingface:
