    Well technically I don't really class you as a southern cousin..... You're more like an adrift in the English channel type of third cousin removed that people only talk about in whispers because of THAT incident with the parrot and the Vaseline :D .....and as for Jager..... the women up here rip the tops off with their bare teeth so you'd be quite at home :D

    It was a pretty polly mind :D

    And as long as those women you mention actually have their own teeth then I'm good to go ;)

    Judging by your dads musical tastes he may be a similar age to me! :D

    45 years old here and was a metal head from about 1980-90! These days I like to chill with a little Floyd. My tastes are quite eclectic.

    He'd love to hear that if he was still alive my friend... I'm 41 myself ;) (look bloody good for it mind:D) !

    Im very "eclectic" too, but have never grown out of my metal ! My first vid displayed a random selection but i think it worked... Went from Royal Blood into Kanye West, into Kasabian, into classical Clint Mansell's Lux Aterna ! Thinking about it the latest one is pretty random too o_O

    My vid has the speech from Layer Cake at the start of it, "you're born, you take shit...."etc etc, before a rousing foo fighters rendition of the pretender. I'll upload to Vimeo and send you the link and password. (Nice idea that).

    Been busy last few days on the beastie... After a nasty judder a few times i decided the headstock bearings needed changing, so after much cursing i now have a nice new set of taper rollers in there.
    While the wheel was out i stuck some new Metzeler M7rr's on it with a 55 profile rear.
    Took her out for about 20 miles earlier for a gentle scrub in and all feels nice ! Need my suspension set up bad and rang HM Racing last week and booked in for two custom maps on the PCV and a suspension set up. Cant wait to see what she feels like with all that dialled in :D

    Jimmy my upholsterer at Car and Marine sent me back my pillion seat that he matched to the rider one he did for me and it looks the nuts ! Not that it with ever really be on there... Might get a bit of luggage sat on it but thats about it if i have my way ;)

    I think it has mate ! I haven't been able to use the brakes in anger yet as I'm still de-greasing the tyres, but I've been obsessively feeling for something and I'm sure its fine now !

    Weather permitting should test it out tomorrow ;)
