    That Wilbers looks a lot more substantial than original, it should make one hell of a difference

    I reckon, I can tell just by sitting on it, very smooth action compared to the original. The Wilbers being aluminium is considerably lighter too. Just got to get my SAG setup in the next day or two and it's time for a test drive.

    About half way between Cold Ashby and West Haddon.

    It's a nice short loop I occasionally do: Market Harborough, Naseby, West Haddon, Althorp, Church/Chapel Brampton, Spratton, Brixworth, Lamport, and back home.

    Well , today enjoyed the America fully for first time in three months , IMG_20200802_100513.jpg
    SWMBO next to 'capt' before our 200 km round trip out for Sunday lunch at Greenhills Inn , got there about 12:30 and had our meal set before us by 13:00 , not bad service when there were already about 60 in the Inn. Roast Beef with veg and Yorkshire Pudding. IMG_20200802_122049.jpg
    At least 30 of the guests were HOG riders !
    Was a great meal and a good ride out , if a bit chilly 16°c at the start and reached 20°c by the time we got home.
    Bike ran perfectly all day , nice "battery" :heart_eyes:

    Screenshot_20200802-102842.jpg Changed the bars on the Thunderbird. Not sure if chrome might work better.

    There are a few of us around the area; yourself, @Ducatitotriumph, @Dozers Dad, @Gazwhitespeed, @Thripster, and me, are those that I can remember. Perhaps we should arrange a meet up and/or ride in the near future? :)
