A nice brace of exups playing about in the sunshine. :D
Bit of advice. Buy a good bed and a good pair of shoes, because if you aren't in one you'll be in the other.

Good to get out for a ride with a few others the other Wednesday evening when it was ideal weather

Then last Sunday I zoomed off down to Rykas cafe at Box Hill, together with several others

So it has been a while since I last posted on here. Now that i've found a better way to put up pictures i've got a bit of catching up to do.

The other year it was the 40th Mayday Run so the Mrs wanted to go. As there's no pillion seat on the R1 I polished up the Exup-R fpr the day. It's a bit cramped compared to the FJ1200 though....

As the Exup-R is the only road bike that I keep on the road all year I can't be too choosy about where I ride. So having to navigate huge dirty puddles at the Oakdean cafe made the bikes filthy. But it doesn't take too long to get it clean :thumbsup: :nod:

Only the transfers on the fairing....

And the Ohlins bits (& other hidden bits)

We swapped bikes for a few miles. Couldn't wait to get back on my own bikes as it handles far better :nod:
