Always being asked by mates for a go, so far I’ve told them to buy their own. Seriously, a good point, maybe a few swaps this year as I take it further afield. Assen for the BSB a likely time.I haven't dropped it but very nearly did on the first couple of rides due to the limited turning circle. Once you get use to that its ok but warn mates if you're brave enough to swap bikes with them
Once you are fully fit, we might be able to get together for that overdue cup of coffee on a 961 rideoutSo I replaced the broken bits a few weeks ago, slipped on the ice and put back my recovery a little, finally felt that my body was healed enough for a ride. Lovely weather, a bit damp but some sun. Had a few doubts, did I miss something, was there something bent that I’d missed.
Anyway, quick check, nothing, she fired up instantly, still unsure whether the battery optimiser was enough. Doubtsfrom previous issues but new battery was fitted by Dealer before my operation and bike just really sat there from late November with a short run in January before I dropped it.
Took it out slowly, tried to listen for anything strange, felt fine, let it warm and then just opened it up and . As the song goes, I’m still smiling......
Will do John, let’s hope for another warm summer.Once you are fully fit, we might be able to get together for that overdue cup of coffee on a 961 rideout

Mm yes “ A 961 Rideout” ,just started thinking the same thing,I was thinking maybe second part of next month ,but as it’s still a touch parky(cold), I’ll ride a couple of hours 100 miles for a catch up, a Saturday / Sunday ,just deciding on an initial venue,the motorcycle accessory/clothing dealer “BIKESTOP”in Stevenage Hertfordshire is on my bucket list for a visit soon, great range of reasonably priced up to date gearOnce you are fully fit, we might be able to get together for that overdue cup of coffee on a 961 rideout
