More then likely working late as per usual on fridays - be here til about 7.30.

Wont be going to my usual drinking places after what happened last friday - see my thread about browsing the forum late.

So im off to another pub not far from where i live with my business partner for a bit of a meeting about our latest developments, a pint or ten and some games of pool.

Sorted.

New bike? I thought that you'd only recently downgraded to a H*nda.

Yes, I downgraded about a year ago. 8 Feb I bought the Hairnet.

New bike's a Daytona 650. I test rode it last week and it was and I couldn't resist it. Tornado red it is, I'll post some pics soon. It's damn fast - faster than I ever want to ride - but I love the styling, the road presence, the handling. Feels solid too.

If this trend continues we're going to need a Triumph section in the forums. How many of us are there now with Trumpets?

Enjoy it and stay rubber-side down.

Work? No, sorry, not sure what that is. I certainly haven't done any today.

Humble opinion----I think that the 650 has more "presence" than the new 675,
which looks much more"Bare bones" even if it has better performance figs
