I don't know about where you are, but here in Costa del Hull it's been an absolutely beautiful spring(?) day. So I wheeled her out (the bike that is), and, using Les H's patent starting method she fired up first kick, and said hello to 2013. Well I didn't have the heart to put her away again, and so I just did a few miles to get my constant companion Arthur Itis used to the bike again. Since being sixteen years old I cannot think of many things like a first ride in Spring (well I know it's not technically Spring yet but hey the Snow Drops are out). And what better way than on a slow-revving, thumping 500cc 'big single' singing Spring has Sprung in your ears! Just the old romantic in me - it'll probably be snowing again tomorrow! Cheers all. Riggers.

Spot-on there RIGGERS, that's the ticket !!! Hopefully, this Sunday I'll be tucking into the first "Breakfast del la 2013" over at QUATT}------------ http://www.xrv.org.uk/photopost/data/50 ... review.jpg ---------..By the way your carb settings worked a treat last year so have left well alone for this years escapades.. -and talking of LES H-----------------Where are you, matey ???

Spring! Going off the last few years i would say summer has sprung,i`ve just got one bike ready for tomoz (sat),beware there`s still salt/grit on the roads.
