    I'm heading that way tomorrow for a run out in the car.
    Don't get me wrong I have biking on my mind while I'm out there. A wee trip to shirlaws is on the cards to see the MV's is on the cards.

    I'm heading down to Forfar, before heading for Blairgowrie, to braemar, from there up to Aberdeen and a few shops ;), before heading down the coastal route past Stonehaven towards Montrose. Should make for a decent day out.

    Cool. Well maybe you might want to ask where they sourced it from after this.
    My one came from Hunts Motorcycles who sent it to Dream Machine for it to be painted. After 300 miles i could count about 80 stone chips on the front and down the side of the fairing and i had only been out once with another bike and I wasn't following close at all.
    Hunts are rectifying this for me after the summer. I'm not sure if there isn't enough lacquer or not enough paint i dont really know enough about it.
    Just a heads up for you.

    If you look at my post .. Gone and done it. In the general discussion area, You'll see a pic of my bike. It's currently sitting in a dealership in Cornwall. A kindly fellow forum member posted it this morning. :)

    Cheers for the heads up though ;)

    Nice! You should have no problem with Honda paint. If my one doesn't get fixed properly I will be going for a Honda painted bike. :D

    I should've been home yesterday but that lovely fog put a spanner in the works.
    Didn't get off today either and doubtful for tomorrow too.
    Was meant to have dropped old bike off at Ecosse today :(

    The joys !! Lol

    P.s. "diet coke" is code for a half:D

    And that usually turns out to mean a pint:eek:
