I'm back....
 
Well the last couple years been a bit rubbish.. Uni meant I had no time and no money for riding my Tl :( got a job though now I am finished and decided to get a bike back, unfortunately though after much reluctance I decided the Tl just wasn't practical for commuting in town. So I decided to look at getting something else and perhaps the bike I have been after since it came out, the daytona 675. Started looking at second hand ones, went into the dealer here and had a go of the demonstrator. Cut a. Long story short I picked up a new 675R yesterday... Breaking in the engine sucks,150 miles down!

And then I wanted to great my dad out on the rode (it's been about 30 years) so I got my old trusty xj out the shed, fresh battery, petrol and oil... Cranked and started. Love Japanese bike reliability!

So we went for a wee ride
