And not to upset anyone; I've nothing against any sexual orientations, as long as they don't include children or animals.

Now, off to Yamaha dealership.
On the plus side, hot shots is a belting film!

My camera is in Bryxells; here is a crappy one from the sales add..



Engine has been rebuilt about a year ago, new set of tyres etc.. I just need to put a top box rack and fix the left rear cowling; the bike has been dropped to that side and probably hit somehing; there is a hole. No-one really notices the hole though. Oh, the bike has some sort of dubble bubble screen, it looks like a bus. Need to find a standard screen or something more cool as the current one has too many corners in it.

Really happy with it. I need to start attending trackdays as that is about the only place where you can really open the throttle...
