Good news about the bike, I bet your wallet's a bit lighter!!

And don't worry about the choc, there's a slight chance I maybe, sometimes, just occasionally, eat too much of the stuff anyway :-)

Jeff and I were supposed to be heading BMF-bound Saturday but have changed our minds cos it'll be the same stuff there and i'm skint, so instead we're gonna head over to Midland Superbikes for sausage baguettes and a ride around over that way show off my go-faster red rims :p

New rocker cover + gasket,
Oil + Filter,
Plugs,
Valve clearance checked,
Air filter,
Fuel filter,
+ Labour.

Couple of fairing bolts and a general check over...

I'm going to be needing a new rear tyre, sprockets and chain in approx 1000 miles too but the chain etc will be done when the tyre is changed.

Any guesses as to how much this costs me?

Hmm, wonder how much choc I could get into my panniers and topbox :p
