Strewth, and I've been moaning about the farm being muddy already.

Can't argue with that

@Notbitingmynails You can get some good gear online but..... Whatever you do, please don't buy a crash helmet online. It's the one thing that has to fit correctly. You'll try it on, it'll be squashing your cheeks so you can't talk, well, that's just about right if at the same time you can't move it around on your head. As long as it doesn't actually hurt, of course. Crash helmet padding does give a lot, so after a few weeks it will be comfortable.

Good morning bikers

Is that your garden pond? Great picture to start the day with.

Diesel is cheaper to produce, it's just our government that make it more expensive to buy (tax & duty), in an effort to be "greener".

Today is the day! CBT Incoming!

Sounds like you've made a huge leap forward, it'll only get better. -
Love that classic styling, very smooth, those lines intended to make the air just slip past. Great looking bike. Good luck with it. Carb rebuild first, I reckon.

@Mississippi Bullfrog What a (very tall) beauty. That wood!! Out of interest s it a solid wooden deck, or laminate? (Not that it matters, I have no idea what I'm talking about). Is that a fibreglass hull/keel?

Good luck @ChrisBiggsUK -
Welcome to the forum @Notbitingmynails Bonio pretty much sums up above, but I'll just add..... Whatever you get, make sure it's comfortable. You don't want too much pressure on the wrists, and your legs shouldn't feel like they're being forced up all the time. Also, clothing. Try your helmets on with your intended jacket, my winter jacket actually pushes my helmet forward, which is darned annoying.

@oldgrump Is that 130,000 on the VFR, or 13,000? -
@Fozzie I need a soothing beer after reading that...

Just employ bikers, they won't get the job done, but imagine the ride outs you could have......

I avoided Spotify and Apple music because of negative reviews. I'm using Tidal, it's superb, incredible quality sound, and I rarely flick forward.
-
Crikey, I have absolutely no idea....

Nothing wrong with doing the right thing. Nothing to prove
-
Glad you got out @RideWithStyles Still sounds frickin painful
-
@Benjjzxcv Well done for getting it going, but why full throttle?
-
Ah yes, recognise the throttle gear for sure. What you have achieved is something to be so proud of, not just the technical expertise, but 1000+ hours. I'm in awe.
