Got round to sorting out the lower right fairing bracket, as it was holding the skirt too far out, and now have the new steering damper to fit for which I need to remove the fairing. While that is off I intend to rehash the warning lights as I’m not happy with my existing solution. The new down pipes and H piece have transformed the appearance of the bike, and generally speaking it’s looking good.
The right hand switch gear is from a Yamaha and unfortunately the cables are a bit short, which means the main connector block pulls out from under the tank when turning the bars. It’s not a major problem, but I’d prefer the block to be tucked away where it should be. The handlebars have lost the shine, the chrome being tatty, as are the levers, so I may invest in a new bar assembly. |

Today was dry and bright and the temperature reached 5 deg C so I washed three bikes, the car and the trailer. Tonight I shall mainly be drinking Glenfiddich as a reward.

Looks like Christmas has come early in the form of a lovely new pair of Silentium Shark Fins for the V7 Sport! They were a long time coming from Turin but got there in the end! Should really start thinking about presents for the wife and family soon!

Ah yes ! Christmas ...
Call me old fashioned but it's a time for giving, and it's more blessed to give than to receive. So this year I'm going to give myself something REALLY nice. |

But of course you won't be able to receive it. |

Better 5 minutes late in this world than years early in the next. |

Took a ride out to Hitchcock's Royal Enfield emporium this morning on the 850GT. A bit cold but not too bad.The roads were filthy and I think salty, so on arrival back home I hosed the old nail down as a precaution.
Exciting morning wot?? |

Beautiful shot, sorry about the insomnia.
I had it too in England in winter, I used to wake up every couple of days ...

Great shot. Could be an original brochure pic!
It must also be nice riding through London really early, before the rush!
