    I'm Just popping out to the workshop to check the Tire pressures, will fuel-up in the morning.

    I'm looking forward to this, hopefully I won't hold any of you up too much on my old bike.
    IcarusGreen: any idea what time I should expect you through Newbury????

    I was hoping to make this but I haven't had chance to look at my electrical issues.. I think it will be a bit dangerous for me to come along with a headlight flashing away at random!!

    Weather is looking good so enjoy and stay safe

    Good man Arthur, we've had the same up here some real heavy showers off and on all day...I've just walked the dog, and the road through the village is pretty much dry now.

    Hopefully see you at Loomies mate, it was a pleasure meeting you guys there the other week.
    :)

    Easy peasy
    Fireblade Headlight Bulb Replacement - YouTube

    Not sure what model Blade you have but they are all much the same


    Edit: can't you put the light-switch to the OFF position or even to the SIDELIGHT position until you get to Poole Quay...once there I'll gladly have a look at it for you if you are stuck.
