^^^^guess who's still grinning from ear to ear!!!

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

Me & Mrs_Steve_God got home fine :)

Thanks to all those that organised it! Was a laugh and a half!!!

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

Yup, very much so. Had a fab time. And i think a special mension has to go to pmapp for looking after us on the way home. Fab time and i even managed not to soil myself which was a bonus :)

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

Awww, you'll make me blush.

Just got in, had an extra bimble on the way home after leaving you Andy.

We said hello to BluePete's grandads bench. Eeeee, it were a bit fresh up there.



Again, thanks to YC for the organisation, Badger and Smudge for the entertainment, and the other 12 noisy buggers who kept me awake all night.


:-) Until next time.

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

Smudge is home.

must say i AM SOOOOOOO glad that Quiff and Mandy decided to come and surprise us......:smt041

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread

We just got back half hour ago to mine..

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

Home safe and knackered. We did another full days worth of the lakes.

What a fantastic weekend! It was great to finally put some faces to names and ride with everyone.

Only one thing to say!...

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

You people have no respect! I would like to remind you that this thread has a strict 0% noise rule!! Tut tut... :p hehe

I've been back an hour it so, washed all the salt and stuff off the bike and now I think I'm going to have a doze... Thankyou very much for a great weekend and first org ride out :D :D

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

Im home... :(

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

Was that you we saw turning left from the A595 towards Eskdale green & passes, or did you do them East to West.
Did them West to East with Berlin & Regency - what an excellent day out to complement a cracking weekend.
Many thanks Yorkie Chris & helpers also to Miss YC for organising grey sheep for us over 60's ( that'll be only me then! )
180 miles today & 267 yesterday every one of which was great fun - got back just after 6
Thanx all !
David

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

I went from Ambleside towards Coniston, then right over the passes, then down to the A595. So in a long winded way, it probably was me, yes!

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

Thank you for getting the rideout together Yorkie Chris, great ride and excellent to get out again with such a top gang of folks :-)

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

Back safe and sound.:thumbsup:

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

Sounds like you did it East to West ( opposite to us ) so am glad we didn't meet on the passes. That would have been THE EPIC FAIL !
I expect you had something in reserve though I found those roads too tempting & rode accordingly. Great fun! My engine had been missing quite a bit after gear changes & off idle but sorted itself out on the REAL hills ( thank goodness )

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

I got back into Aber at half11 last night, loooong day!

Superb weekend, great bunch of folks and cracking route, LOVED it :-D

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

Aye, meeting you will be something to remember for a while love... "Oh wow your tiny" I didnt know what to say to that tbh. :(

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

awww-- what a bad day you had ... you were so looking forward to it too..

always next time mate-- you cant legislate for a chain snap.. you could lube it though to limit the possibility ..

I didnt get to meet you- I was gettin hot chocolate.. mandy said she met you.. she described you as small 'n cute.. aww bless.

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

home safe.

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

It's better than hearing it after 'getting to know them' :p

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

You can stop winding me up now :smt040

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

Hmm. :( I need to become more Gruff. :p

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

Erm....








































Ok then :D

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

You looked so comfortable on the motorway I was bricking myself at the faster points.

:confused:

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

Faster points? You mean 75? :p ha ha no, I cant blame you, with being on a naked and with the wind, also not riding for a while... But tbh mate you seemed fine. I was happy doing your pace :) Good job in hind sight, or I might not have got as far as I did :(

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

For your information I touched the preverbial ton (indicated) a fair few times :smt019



(a ton is 70mph right?):plod:

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

I've decided when I get my compo payout and my insurance is up in october I'm going for a 650s unsure as to pointy or curvy yet.

hopefully YC'll miss this post to prevent ****ripping

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

Lol no chance. That gay screen you put on it has rubbed off on you!

Who needs a fairing, what is your neck meant for?

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

lol shíte.
Actually the gáy screen didn't do much at all I took it off as soon as I got home (and lubed my chain:smt083) then went out for another few hours.

To be honest I secretly want a pointy S but not sure if I dare mechanics and cost of dropping wise.

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

About the same tbh. Fuel injection doesn't go wrong as much, but when it does you're f##ked!

Put some crash bungs on and dropping them is about the same...

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

crap lol I've been reading some worrying stuff apointys today they all seem to be going wrong! Are any particular years better than others? K5s? I might get a curvy I'm not sure dizzy's looked cool.

Any idea if my exhaust system would fit the pointy? Surely it should, the cylinders are in the same position.

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

It might if you're very lucky, but remember pointy has an oil cooler, different shock layout etc.

I might be tempted to have that pipework off you if you change bikes http://tbn2.google.com/images?q=tbn:...ls/vulture.gif

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread

is that your not sure, my bike looked cool:cheers:? or my bike didn't look cool:twisted:?

Come over and look at my yellow one....then you'll be convinced a yellow curvy S is the way to go:takeabow:

Re: Hardy Bikers - Home Safe Thread
 

Aye I'd be tempted to leave it on because it's a massive selling point (only reason I bought the bike...other than the price). But if it doesn't fit my next bike I'll give you a shout first. I'm sure you won't mind the scruffy downpipe :p

I wouldn't have anything but a highlevel on an sv I think they look awesome.
