Been for a proper play out this afternoon with a mate. I've tweeked the suspension settings from the previous owners, and its mental. Fu**in mental round corners. Still smiling now.

The tarts handbag add ons are not my fault. Infact it won't look like that in 12 months after I've started.

K2 have done me proud. The motors spot on. Only difference between this and my last 2 thou's is that you can't do lazy thou overtakes, you have to buzz the box a tad. But its quick. By eck its quick. And its half a step towards a R1.

Do I miss the exup or the wide bike? Er no and definately no.

Stig it was a youffs who'd had it for 2 years with a 33hp kit fitted. He took it in for MOT and kit to be removed. Picks bike up, goes 3 miles up the road and some kind 4x4 lady shoves him over. Headlight, nose fairing, belly pan and r/h side panel all ebay specials, but Dream Machine resprayed. The rear subbie was bent, but Russ got me a new one. There is one little dent still in the tank, but I'm not bothered, as it may not stay blue.

Its got HEL brake lines, the Devil's own drain pipe, there's a K&N lurking under the tank, not sure if its jetted, but it goes like stink, so its ok, chrome bits include chain guard, heel plates and top yoke cover. Not sure about those, as I changed the polished bits on the Ace, as I got fed up of rubbing.

Seats have been redone. Brand new tyres Corsa III's, so Yoda's happy, full service history, and all MOT's as well. And I got it at mates rates off Steve at K2. His son Russ, worked his bollox off to have it ready for last sunday, but it needed a screen and a crash bung, so I borrowed the FZ1.
Dark Fool it was like there was nothing but a front wheel in front of me, the first time I rode it.
