They have a good solid rep. Feels like a horsebox to push around though. Out tomorrow I hope.

Flighty whitey for a while.
Have you noticed that anyone going slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster is a maniac ?

:D Got her back :D

Got a decent deal to buy it back. The full value was low due to high mileage, but then, so was the salvage estimate.

The hanger / control panel is on order from Triumph. The rest I will bodge, source on the interweb or simply accept and up with put.

Bottle of bubbly au frigo for tonight. \:D/

Final twist in the tail, a leaky fuel line. Spraying everywhere.

Went to the marina chandlery and got a metre of 10 bar line and some clips. Sorted...I think !

Tomorrow is another day. The only thing between us and victory is defeat.

Did a pretty loop up through Dursley and Stroud. Nothing fell off or dripped out. Weird riding position after the Honda though, so a little achey.
