    That is a good point mate! Although most 911 drivers will have wasted cash on a plate such as 911 nob or vw 911 etc. so tricky to tell lol.

    Went to BPL Honda today. Managed to talk my self out of signing on the dotted line for the remaining 2013 HRC ABS in the showroom. 'just'
    I can't justify it, not with the 2014 due out around November? It's up in the air what exactly is going to be different, but if the young lads enthusiasm was anything to go by, it could be just a little bit more than just a new paint job?
    Anyway So I booked mine in for a full service and new front tyre for next Wednesday.

    TBH Giv, I'm one of the minority that hasn't had any unpleasant surprises with the ABS, but then I guess you have to be going fast enough to need to use the brakes in the 1st place ;)

    Washed the bike for the first time since June........scrubs up well under 3k of commuter grime.
    Felt so pleased with my efforts, also cleaned the bbq, that scrubbed up well after a farms worth of dead cows, lambs and pigs burning at the stake

    Took myself off to Hawes for a 100 mile run out. Nearly got taken out by a tractor as he veered over onto my side of the road! Roads were dry and didn't see a single copper!
    Bike was smooth as silk due to the new chain and sprocket set I fitted from Andy at Demon Tweeks.
