    Phew, had me worried for minute there.
    The pipe they send you is twice as long as it needs to be, so I cut it in half and can use the other bit of pipe if the one on the bike goes cloudy.

    Dead easy to bleed too, i just back bled it up the pipe from the caliper :D

    Fitted a new smaller number plate. Fingers crossed I don't get in too much trouble for it.

    Did Bikesafe in Romford. Bloomin' miles away.

    Very helpful. Top crowd - coppers and civilians alike.

    Quite fancy a bit of RoSPA action. Anyone had any experience of them?

    Mounted a cam on my helmet using 3M VHB tape, seems quite strong, but time will tell.

    Also moved my rear mini cam to the tail tidy.
    Just need an excuse to test them out now :D

    Riden it to work today and had a blast, definitely going to invest in getting its suspension set up in the next few weeks, as i think its a bit soft at the moment.
    Also added to my purchases and got a Radiator guard coming and some waterproof superseal conectors so i can convert my Givi Tanklock bag into a powered unit for my starcom and for charging accessories.

    Saw someone else tanking it along the road on it, when testing the exhaust.
    It's friggin' loud.
    Then waved it away again as the wife took it home.

    Just got back from a quick blast up to Hawes! ( Got to keep my hand in, it's been a while since I was up there ). Chippy tea then back home chasing a group of lads on Gixxer thou, S1000rr, TT Legend and a Busa. Have to say since I had my suspension sorted she just carves through the bends with no fuss at all...........Oh yes and the aforementioned bikes as well!! :D

    Knowledge of the roads is king as you well know Jim. They had helmet cams on the front and rear riders..........Love to be a fly on the wall when they watch it back!!
