Default Yet Another Bike Back on The Road

First ride, albeit a short one (from the guy that kept through the winter and repaired the bits to the garage where I usually keep it during summer), but a RIDE never the less!!
Too bad the weather is so bad these days (lots of rain) and that I have to leave... But in 4 days it's carving time baby!!

Tweaks done during winter time :
Repaired fairings (plenty of drops in the parking lot..)
Repaired gearbox (fell once on the left side and the impact bent a piece inside)
Carburators calibrated
All the cleaning & polishing & lubbing

Now it looks like brand new.. well, better then when I bought it anyway

Are you still in Romania? Sounds like you could be living in my street .

Weather here has gone cold and rainy again - in the parts of the country where it isn't snowing.

Romania and Britain have more in common than I thought!
