The bike that is !!!

Got her back on Friday actually but as the missus has f**ked off to Menorca for a week I have been having to look after the wee man so I haven't got out on her yet.

Still...... i have taken the next three days off and will be out and about on her whilst 'devil child' is at school.

There is one thing wrong with the bike however. On closer inspection I found a clight 'compression kink' in the radiator from the side impact. The repair garage have apologised for missing it and have ordered up a new radiator for me.

Anyway. Forecast is good so looking forward to getting my leg over for the first time since the spill :oops:

grant (blue flame) was having problems with SV in the wet something to do with spark plugs and firing on less that proper amount of cylinders. his machine chucked him off and he broke his wrist requiring pins and stuff and fractured a vertebrae in his back. but they are hard in Fife and he has been up and about for a while now and was only in hospital for a day or so.
