Rode it 66 miles to collect some special tool tips and bronze hex bar.
A very enjoyable ride, heated grips took care of the chilly hands.
Plenty of smiles per mile. Went through a puddle or two, so now it needs a wash and brush up. Rode it another 189 miles round the Cotswolds today, then low beam blew on the way back dammit.

Wicky , you need to go ride one of your bikes asap. You got bike withdrawal symptoms.

  Hi Eel,  I already have!  Mick Roughan and the udder boys are ribbing me to get a bike MOT'd  in time for the spring and the Snowjoke camping trip in July.  At the moment business is so hectic i have no spare time to fettle in the evenings.  I now take every Monday off to go thru me saws, chipper, climbing kit, etc.  Saturdays are taken up with admin and site visits, sundays are a day out with Mole or we are doing jobs around the house.  In the evenings after 'work' i can sometimes be out in the garage for hours sorting out blunt saws or udder issues so my bike fettle time is nil at the moment. I need to sort out the old work / life balance. Although business is booming and i'm trying to appease everyone and keep me wan errr bank balance fat it does take its toll.


spyball alarm/immob, bluespot brake calipers and Stainless hoses, Fournales air adjustable shock with Remote Resevoir, forks raised 10mm thru yokes, racetech linear fork springs in 15 wt oil, Kappa wingrack/luggage, heated grips, Kedo handguards, dual heat controller to power heated jacket liner and or pants!!, Stebel 136DB horn, K&N air filter, colour matched Baglux tank cover (magnetic tank bag modified to fit cover), osram +50% headloight bulbs, headlight protector,"NitramSpecial" parking loight, tail light indicators all running on LED's & incorporate "Lite Buddies", MK7 Scottoiler fitted, taller screen, 2-2 stainless steel CCC's, Devil stainless down pipes. MKI Renntec engine crash bars & sump guard.
engine changed july 2007 on a dyno run it made 79.1BHP / Torque 59.9Had a brief flirtation with a 1999 MKIIa but it blew an exaust valve on the M5 so was sold on to be repaired.

Reassembly begun after CSM servicing, but I've taken on a cherrypicker project so I guess the bike will have to wait a couple of weeks or for Sundays.

Pushed it out of garage, cleaned it, waxed it, made look like nearly new and hurriedly pushed it back in before it got rained on. The original idea was to ride it.

In my bicycling days a friend was boasting how he'd reduced the weight of his bike by 500gm at a cost of nearly £100. He wasn't best pleased when I told him I'd achieved a similar effect by just taking a good substantial crap !    for nothing !

Started her up, first time on the button after six weeks of standing, and let the oil warm up.

 

Having fitted snow tyres to both my car and the KTM this winter we've had no snow to play on (typical !), so I think I'll be taking the TDM for an MOT in a month or so after I get through a busy work period
