Cool night, didn't see many of you guys around though!

Went up with Jonny and his pill, only saw Drew there!

That Goldwing with all the LEDs was awesome!

Saw an R6 with LED's inside the fairing, saw no 'wing though

Saw Jonny's ole nag parked just back from the "bridge" bit .. (just down from where we parked

Some nice bikes about, but not much properly modified stuff - mostly later Gixxers, Blades and R1's with bolt on's ... screens, cans, dampers, footrest kit's etc.

Bit of a shame really - used to see some really nice one-off's

There was one totally Gorgeous silver Z900 that was really tastefully done, and a very smart ZRX with upside downies and a mono-shock

Oh I love you too.

Saw a very modified cbf600, carbon frame, custom fairing, twin NOs cans.

Some kid that looked about 12 had a trike built from a 125 V-twin cruser. I didnt see any L-plates, no way he could have been old enough to ride it.

But the Goldwing with the lights was awsome! He even had a police siren and flashy blue lights.

Danny and I both had are tinted visors, completly forgetting that it might be dark on the way home. Made for an interesting trip back!

was it a green one? if so, a guy caled Jam from up honiton way owns it. It's originally a 400 that one, but hes taken it out to 600cc and added loads of trick bits to it - brembo radial calipers next on his list to go on it.

I think I saw that one, he's on the ZRXOC site, knows loads about zrx400s. I think he's fitted a ZZR600 motor in it.

I saw the kid on the trike, he looked about 12

Ohhhh yeah, that was a bit stupid... !

The modded up bike was a CBR600F, a CBF600 would look pretty stupid with all that on it... heh!

And I don't think that trike was a twin - and it sounded so pathetic, like a tap dripping!
