At Last! I got my bike back!
 
Finally got it returned from 4th Dimension who've been 'fixing' it for over two months. Naturally it was raining today so my long awaited first ride was poo cos I hate riding in the wet but never mind. Off work next week!
I felt like a learner today as I only had the sv about two months before getting nudged, in fact I was more confident and a stronger rider when I first got it, and rode 80 odd miles up from Southampton.
Soon I can finally start fitting all the pimpage I've been collecting...

Good news, took there time fixing it didn't they.

Take it steady to begin with, no need to rush yourself back up to pace.

Ride safe.... :riding:

Congrats! Have fun. Again, take it easy. There's lots of salt around now which you may have not encountered before.

Cheers guys, been out today for an hour or two and found such a cool road I went up and down it a few times! teriyakimonkey you are right, I was thinking that I was just poo in the corners - but the roads really are slippy at the mo. Good excuse anyway!
Not so pleased about the snow though, I've been dreading riding/trying to ride in that since a started. Quite lucky I missed winter in a way.
I seem to have lost all the muscles in my wrists and shoulders too so I have numb fingers and stiff neck stopping me going out too long :(
Useless w4nkers at 4th dimension haven't fixed the speedo either so its paranoia time at gatsos.
Hey Dappa D, you back on the road yet?
