Bike!

It needs to be babied for the first 500km, then gradually worked up to normal operating. So no going over 40mph or 1/4-1/2 throttle for me just yet...

Shame about the weather, I hope it clears up for the MG run to Brighton tomorrow.

Lovely weather we're having

It brightened up a bit after getting the bike back home from the dealer, so I just went out for a bit of a ride. It really does ride beautifully, although it's hard to keep within the constraints of the running-in when you want to have fun.

Then, 5 minutes before I got home, a torrential downpour started. Grump.
Speaking of being drenched, many thanks to frodomorris for taking me to pick up the bike, and getting soaked in the process.

More photos now up in the previous location, this time looking a little shinier and drier.

Watch and learn, as Art fails to start his new $shiny first go [MPEG-1, 6.9MB]. I will stop boring you all with stuff pertaining to shiny-new-bike soon, promise.

Well, maybe.
