Oh man Norton Indonesia.
Fired off an email to get more info on their 'scramblers'. Wondering where they went with ECU,relays,fuses.

very nice, rizoma mirrors? what milage now, surely run in?

Thanks! Rizoma mirrors, yes. The run-in was done on a dyno before I took delivery 2 years ago. The mileage is up to 2223 and rising. I want to reach 3000 before the end of July when the registration expires.

Dashed to France yesterday like u do just for a days riding of 235 Miles , this time on the cross Chanel ferry, must say although it’s around half the cost of the tunnel, it does take bloody ages ,delays with weather being foggy,& balls up on getting my 27 other chums from my bike club on the same boat was a challenge

Spot on. What you can't see is how close to the 20 Foot drop the Bike is. Good job it wasn't windy

I bet those “ shorties” exhaust pipes sound great thru that Mersey tunnel ?

In answer to a question from mxmartin regarding the fly screen, don't mount a go pro on it, I don't the image stabilisation methods could cope with the resonance. I will advise mounting places soon.

I have tried several mount points for my cameras but they suffer bad 'jello' effect, a nightmare for many would-be vloggers on a variety of modern bikes. It would appear that helmet mount or body-strap mount is the safe bet.

Stopped to rest my butt on a 400 mile return journey earlier this week and couldn't resist taking a quicky in a layby. No points on offer for spotting where this was taken.

Just a 80 mile round trip last night for a bike meet with my club & parked next to the oldest bike there ,as u can see it’s in pretty good shape

2 very nice bikes. No bluing on the Beeza's pipes. Impressive

Just on the far side of the green, through the trees, another baby 961 is being born.....

Welshrugby · Jun 22, 2018

Yes indeedy, yours was in the workshop under the watchful eye of Olivia. Don't quote me but I THINK she said it was all done.

As nice as your titanium looks with you astride it, it looks pretty awesome with Olivia at the helm, wish I had a picture

I’ve got a rattle it can have. Slightly used, just three years old, well loved, much listened too, but it is time to let it go. Collect from next Blightybunch meet.

110 mile round trip today to FORT AMHERST adjacent to Chatham Dockyard,highly recommended for a bike trip destination, book yourself on a tunnel tour of this 200 years military underground complex eh that’s was never needed,by the time it was finished we had made peace with France the year before in 1815,bit like a nuclear weapon of the day I suppose,everyone knew we had it & never came near it .
