    Nice turnout at the local bike meet, Dougie! How did it feel to see your old Fat Boy with its new owner and some "redecorating"?

    Yesterday I had the pleasure to use my TIGER as a submarine during my 60 km ride home from the office. In addition, my motorcycle clothing also had to serve as diving equipment.:confused:
    Conclusion:
    The TIGER "enjoyed" the wash cycle. At the weekend I will clean him again and prettify him.
    My MODEKA clothing holds completely tight and meets all manufacturer specifications.;)

    Not a cheap service at 12,000 is it @Wessa I've got my 765 at 10,000 miles nearly so I'd best start buying bits :rolleyes:

    Parts were circa £150, £110 vat and the remainder was labour. No you are correct not a cheap service at all….

    Commuted to work today, punctuated in the middle of the day by a 24 mile round trip to another work site that happens to be in a rural location with some lovely roads there - it sweetens the fact you're at work on such a beautiful sunny day when you're out riding your bike and claiming mileage allowance :laughing:.

    It was still pretty cold at 0620 this morning when I left but beautifully warm and very sunny on the way home. Just short of 100 miles on a work day isn't bad at all and the commute is certainly enjoyable on the bike (in the main). It was even one of those magical mornings where every set of lights I went through in town either turned green as I approached or stayed green, I didn't have to stop at any once :cool:.

    The icing on the cake - it was my first ride in my new helmet and I love it :).

    I have no luck with courtesy bikes, always gutted when I see people given nice options. I got a T100 (where's the 6th gear) when my Nightstorm went in and a NC750 Honda boring when I dropped @Mrs Visor Street Triple off. Mate dropped his Tiger 800 off and got a Street Triple RS and all you guys post pics of all the nice bikes you get : unamused:
