Sympathy and empathy for Chris with his fuelling incident, but a great display of camaraderie to get him back on the road with hopefully no damage. You're in an elite set now Chris with the best..

As Adie said earlier in the thread diesel brothers, Gary!! Worked in transport for 40 years so more difficult to get it out of the blood than a petrol tank lol

Ha ha! Well rest assured they will never let us forget it Chris, just waiting for the next one to come along and gain safety in numbers..

I'll second Colin as staff photographer too.. He really captures the essence. Well done.

As Darren and Mike requested, some pictures of the other trophies.

"The Buzzbomb" in the skunkworks with emergency plastic nameplate and stainless clamp screws.

The best modified keeper, the "Buzzbomb" is only kept for a year and engraved.
The res' top unscrews and makes a handy stash pot!!

Bike of the Year keeper, presumably an ex part of Geoff's Monster?

Concours keeper. This must be Geoff's original filler cap, as it happens I have the instructions for it's natty upgrade, which I can forward to the new owner if Jim's interested? His key should still fit?

The Concours d' Elegance from 2018 (Monster 25th anniversary) My French polishing has improved since then I hope! The piston is from a 748 and has a crazed crown! So must have been from a belt snapper?
