Did the service with Tony yesterday, and it all went swimmimgly apart from Tony busting a couple of the quick release plastic clip things and me sulking at his suggestion of replacing them with similar items from the local car shop aaaaaaaaaaagh . Just the thought drives me wild, so another 20 mile trip for 2 clips worth 85p each I suppose you cant put a price on peace of mind. ( god I sound sad, But if a jobs worth doing........) Anyway its done. I went for a quick blast to Squires which is about 2 miles from my house. I didnt let the clutch warm up enough before grabbing a handfull and it wasnt happy about going into gear a couple of times but once it was warm and marinated with the new oil it settled down and felt smooth and with the new plugs, air filter and a new set of boots (Diablo Corsa 3's - Fantastic!) I cant wait for Sunday. Bridlington I think, Stopping on the way @ Seaways Cafe, Fridaythorpe. A good pitstop if youve come from Squires and then going on to the coast , it can get really busy on a good day Just watch out for the local Bobbys on Busa's ( nice work if you can get it ! ) Thats my rant over. If you that way on Sun , say Hi - Ill be the one in black leathers on the motorbike !
