Excellent, but long day for me.

[Sparks!]

Hi,

Hope you've all had good weekends, as I have

Saturday my mum and I went for a second viewing of the house we want (second time for mum, first time I've seen it) it's not bad, not quite what I was expecting, needs a lot of work but only updating/decorating. But that means we can "make it our own" We're going to put an offer in and see how it goes.

Sunday,

Well, up at 6:30 , ok I lie, my alarm went off at 6:30, I actually got up at 7:00 Jump in the car with my mum and we sped off up to High Wycombe in North Londoney area. Found it no problems, met up with my mate and my mum went off back home (thanks for the lift mummy )

Mate and myself got in his escort, all trailered up ready for a long drive to..........






















Yorkshire.


Fuck me was it a long way!! I will never consider London or surrounding areas far away again, you don't appricieate how tiring travelling is until you make a long journey, Portsmouth to Yorkshire was very tiring.

First stop, Wolly Edge Service Station in Huddersfield, quick drink and back out to the car, a nice shiney blue WR450 supermoto comes storming into the car park, heard it from a mile away!!








That was someone dropping off a caliper and wavy disc for my friend He left, on one wheel (in the rain) and we jumped back in the trusty old Escort and carried on our epic journey to Yorkie land!!

Along the M1 we encountered this :

Looked rather nasty, transit van collided with a people carrier, I think the people carrier passengers were fine, but not so sure about the bloke in the transit. We saw 2 police cars, a fire engine and an air ambulance! Hope he/they were ok

Anyway, slight detor through leads and we find our way to another mates house, where we sat around a table for a few hours chatting, and playing with a "powerball" thing, then messed about with a nitro RC car


Was a great day out






























Oh btw, I came home with this baby Sorry about the pics, bad camera set up!!!

Yes, you could say I'm rather happy, VERY good supermoto spec, braking wave discs, talon/morad wheels, beringer caliper, revalved forks, goldspeed tyres yadda yadda yaa!!!!!!

I hope you enjoyed reading about my day as much as I enjoyed doing it

Now I'm off to crash on the sofa before the Counterstrike clan practice tonight !!! See you then

Hi , I must say , that KTM looks and probably is amazing !!!

The Saturday when you came up we were dealing with up to 90mph winds , a few people died including an 8 year old kid from a falled tree. many overturned hvg's causing huge delays etc. Dont know if the wind was that powerfull down there on Saturday.

[Silver]

Is the bike kick start only with no key like on the WR? If so...where is it you said you work?

[G]

Did you get mx wheels as well?

I presume it's a fair bit higher tuned if it's faster than the WR.
What's the maintenance like .

Anyway, enjoy .

[Sparks!]

It's electric and kick start, no security although it does have a steering lock. You're welcome to try and nick it, although.. it's in the office about 6 or so meters from my desk
