    6:30 am I was on my Bonneville and what I did to her was... 140 Kms before breakfast... That's the best time of the day. Too late for police, too early for weekenders.

    Fitted a stone guard and yellow light while waiting for the snow to thaw. Come on snow, let me go for a ride!

    I have left my luggage rails on aswell, it assists a great deal when loading TTR on & particularly off the paddock stand

    Dug out an old surplus gas mask bag to use for a small pannier. Worked great for a handful of essentials like cigars, lighter, extra gloves.

    I've used Venhill for custom clutch cables and speedo cables in the past.

    Fitted my Delkevic exhaust today,very straight forward and a very similar sound to the standard one. Good news cos I dont want a noisy ( @dilligaf :)) exhaust, and I still have the option of removing the baffle.
    I also set out the top box bracket which looks like its going on with a quick change of bolts that hold the rack, for longer ones so Im well chuffed.

    51 mile round trip (including lunch stop at Loomies) just to get my haircut - as the sun was out.

    Ive got a stunningly beautiful (imo) tourer and to put a Triumph top box on it I would be over 500 quid, 19.99 will do for me. Stunningly beautiful.
