well the weather has been good and me and me cousin made the most of it and headed out early, he has just got the vfr and wanted take her out for a long ride, sunny day, coffee and a bike shop, pure bliss

 

Looking good Wheelnut - some nice pics there, today was cracking weather, makes a change from all the rain the past few months!

Your mk1 looks very nice & tidy.

 

Missed out today, had to work

But got the next 10 days off

BTW bike looks great

 

10 days off hawkwind and the weather is looking ok, hope you manage to get out
and cheers for the comment on the bike, she is running like a dream, comming back we swapped bikes for a while as you do, and me cousin couldnt believe how nice a 1988 bike could be and how much grunt she had, as me ol dad used to say many a good tune played on an old fiddle

 

That's a lovely example you've got the wheel nut. Fantastic condition. A real eye catcher. Nice one!
After the drenching the UK has had since the beginning of December, even 5 minutes of dry riding time is a welcome opportunity. I'm sure you and your cuz enjoyed the nice clean tarmac. All of a sudden there are lots of bikes back on the roads. He he.....
There's still snow to come though. You do know that don't you?

 

thanks henrym, i have heard about some snow, im hoping it wont happen, we went over to dorchester near oxford to a bike shop and cafe, and by 9.30am the place was packed, the sun certainly got everyone out, was a good weekend, saturday afternoon in the shed cleaning and getting the old girl ready for a bit of a thrashing

 

Both looking nice n shiny there, Im hoping for an early finish and some sun tomorow for a quick blat.
Ive owned a VFR and they are as special as the CBR, they feel thin and alive and as long as you ride em like two strokes they are a seriouse weapon and quite comfy to.
