    You have been warned, Soss. ^^^^^^^

    Looking distinctly cloudy over London's fashionable West End at the mo. And I've parked my roofless Lamborrari thingy car outside where I'm speaking to beautiful and glamorous people. One spot of rain, bloke, on my bespoke Thames chamois interior and you're in deep water.

    And I might be getting new tyres tomorrow. Metzeler M5's since you ask.

    No pressure then.

    The 'deep water' was intended, by the way.

    Enjoy your new ride, and stay safe :)

    For Greyskull's sake! I'll do the forum jokes, Sine! Cliff!

    The pr3's are finished and I fancy something that turns a bit quicker. BobLins at FWR Tyres really rates them. He knows his tyres...

    And Si likes them. And he's got great hair.

    Plus I reckon they'll make me more attractive to women.

    Well, sun still shining and went out for my first ride on the new bike. Having not ridden for a year, it felt a little alien at first but by the end of it, was getting back into the groove.

    Am hugely impressed by the bike so far - it can "be anything you want it to be" in that it can be docile, but twist the throttle some more and things start to move quickly. Everything just felt 'right', a feeling I remember from test riding a few years back.

    Certainly have no regrets whatsoever and LOVE IT! Looking forward to getting the old SDOC out later for a clean :)

    Soss
