Funnily enough, we go to a rally in Scotland in order to escape the festival! As these things often do, it has outgrown our small town, and is no longer the pleasant experience that it used to be. Or maybe I'm just getting old and grumpy!

Howdy Mickey

I think we may have chatted on 'another' forum

Good to see a few pics of your bike mate.

Hiya Bonzo! Did you get any of the goodies we talked about on that other forum? I tried logging on over the weekend, but it is temporarily closed down. This forum is much more lively anyway! Thanks for the nice comments re. my bike.

I got the chain spanner you recommended. Nice bit of kit it is too.

I didnt get a paddock stand, but spotted an Envy bike lift at the NEC bikeshow. They dont actually do one for the new Evo's but he said he'd been asked a few times so he's gonna get the pegs made up & hopes to get them on sale in the new year.

At £249 its a few quid more than a paddock stand, but seems great quality.

Did you get the oil cooler guard fitted? Did you find it as fiddly as I did?

Ah yes. Forgot about the cooler guard.

Yes, I got one but its still in the box. I havent even picked the bike up yet as Im in the middle of getting my house sold. Im gagging for a ride on it, but Ive got plenty on to occupy my mind at the moment

, and besides the weather is a bit ****e.
