    I got married in Fowey Steve many moons ago.

    Gave myself Alcohol poisoning on Red Wine, didn't eat Jack from Saturady nights wedding breakfast until Wednesday lunchtime and only forced it down then cause we were booked in at Rick Steins Seafood restaurant in Padstow for a treat. :(

    Fitted the remaining HID to the High Beam lamp & wired them in parallel to the High Beam switch.

    Also removed my mates rear tire in preparation for the new one arriving to get both bikes ready for the Scotland trip.

    No pics this time.

    Got into the garage after clearing the drifting snow from the door.

    Opened my parcel with the shiny R&G radiator guard in it.
    Read the instructions about taking off both side fairings and lots of other things far too bloody fiddly to do in sub zero temperatures with frozen fingers and put everything back in the box.

    Drilled and fitted my new smaller number plate.

    Looked at the snow and cursed repeatedly.

    Been away for a bit lads due to stuff at work, family etc. Bought this at the MCN show, well pleased.

    Haven't got out on the bike due to the weather, first impressions of running the bike in the garage is that it's loud!

    You obviously haven't tasted Mrs V's cooking mate!

    Lol, locals already pissed off, had neighbours queuing at the garage door moaning when I run it!

    Still, least I won't have to talk to them now.
