Thank you everyone!!

I've got some spare indies courtesy of kingfixer over on 675.cc, I found a graphite tail unit on ebay, auction has 3 days to go yet so I'm watching it. If anyone else dares bid on it, you're toast!! I wanted new levers anyway so I's getting some nice Pazzo shorties. Think it's time to get some anodised bar ends, I can get a rear brake lever from Wylies, the crash bung from T3, and the mirror housing, the stator cover and the panel will have to wait.

My leathers - well they're a bit of a mess, they'll have to do till I can afford some new ones. But they did their job, yes I'm annoyed about the holes, but I'd be a darn sight more annoyed if I had holes in my arms.

I like my new tyres, they are really good, but I didn't like them when I came off. I really didn't brake THAT hard, just a bot more firmly than usual, and over I went. I didn't lock up the front (got that T shirt, learned the lesson), it simply slipped away cos the tyre didn't grip.

Damn.

Oh well, not the first time, sure as hell won't be the last. Onwards and upwards:D
