    All right then, why not.

    Mods:

    BP petrol, as opposed to manufacturer recommended Shell. Necessary as the BP garage is just around the corner.

    Tyres use non OEM air but with a northerly breeze I am 2 miles down wind of the Honda main dealer so if I top them up then, it's the next best thing.

    I have 1000rr stickers fitted to either side of the windscreen which are not, technically, 'go faster', and do add a weight penalty but are so cool that they produce a Ram Air effect, chilling the frontal area air and boosting the the engine efficiency disproportionately to their mass.

    Hoffmeister beer bar towel. Kept in the boot for seat drying, nose blowing and other fluid based embarrassments.

    Now fitted with Renntec grab rail for Jeanette. However, she cannot climb on without a stool and if we use the garden wall for a boost we then need to find something similar at the other end of the journey for her to get off again. I did try to leave her sat on it once while I went for a coffee, but she kept setting off the alarm and I got a letter of complaint from the RSPCA.

    Gilles Shift Support.

    MRA Double Buble. (It looks exactly like a Double Bubble but with more swing)

    Do you wear your Gilles shift support in bed and do you find it tight around the nether regions and finally does it do anything for marital relations:D :confused:I am very hopeful on all counts and await delivery of mine (hopefully in a plain brown wrapper from Calsport) full of anticipation.

    I could only get my little finger into the bearing on mine and then it was tight, so comparatively speaking it could well be on the cards. The item is pornographic rather than educational however so I did consider buying another one just to stroke and look at. It's a crime it's almost invisible when fitted.

    Here is my 1st pride and joy on the day i collected it from Lancaster Honda April 2011.
    No2 HM Plant IOM TT John McGuinness Race Rep.
    Hand painted by Spray Bay, the fuel tank is signed by and photographed with the great man himself.
    Yoshi R77 & heat shield.
    Tail tidy.
    ASV levers.
    Rear pegs off.
    Tinted screen.
    Seat cowl.
    Head light covers.

    Now has gillies rear sets, race sprockets / chain and tall screen.

    This is one of a kind which would be in the house on a stand if i could get away with it :)

    Hope you like it.

    Cheers :)
