Default The Next Generation (No not StarTrek)

My niece came down today after passing her CBT yesterday (4 days after her 16th), first big ride and across London as well

Well Done Michelle \/

Indeed she has a set goal, I've offered her my old SV, it needs building though, going to need new cables, but there's a 2k miles engine just sitting there, brand new set of Z6's on the rims, newly serviced brake calipers with pads, all the bits are there, so I can see a summer of helping weekends in front of me.

She could well be on here soon, you never know

Cheers Mark.

Indeed, but with 5 bikes and only limited time, something has to give, not used it in nearly three years now, it served me well, just with a Speed triple sitting there, I can't see me using it again.

Cheers Mark.
