After getting the bike out only to find the battery flat at about 11am, bunged it on charge, and was pleasantly surprised to find it at 13v 2 hours later. So got in a nice ride before the new ice age begins tomorrow after all.

Gave the new sat nav its first shake down run on a ride with Copycat73 around the Lakes, all seemed to work fine, not too much of a challenge for me!
No pics, as I didn't take a camera - didn't want tech. overload
But did see 7 (yes, seven) McLarens up on the Kirkstone Pass: ÂŁÂŁÂŁÂŁÂŁÂŁ!
And that was my first time along the eastern side of Coniston Lake; spotted a couple of possible shots for the camera, so will have to go back on a sunnier day. Bluebells were abundant in the woods, and that's one I haven't got for starters. ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

Cool, thanks!
Unfortunately the bash plate is MIA. Was not in the bundle of bits that came with the bike.
Is it on one of your other bikes? |

^^ Wish I'd taken my camera. That line-up of McLarens looked impressive; sounded good too, when they all drove off. Would have been interesting to talk to them a bit more. He said they were headed up to do the NC 500 later in the year - anyone for a race?! ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

I had always wanted one, but was a bit disappointed when I finally got one. Bit of a heavy old tractor after more modern fare (which I suppose I should have expected), and I didn't click with it. The Z650 always looked a bit better, sleeker imo, and was nicer to ride. Interesting that the one in your shot is a modified LTD custom. Possibly it was cheaper than going for the genuine Z1, but looks even less sleek!
I saw one of these yesterday too, near Penrith/M6 junction on my way home - must've been a Mustang meet on somewhere. The one I saw was white with blue stripes down the side - had a bit of a hot-rodded look about it. ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

I might well be in for the same disappointment but I'm always open to the contrary (some bikes I've owned have certainly surprised despite their flaws), I was looking at the LTD simply because they go a chunk cheaper than the standards but can be re-fitted to look the part, I might still try a Z650 or even GS750 for my aircooled UJM kicks.
@Irn-Bru You know I was actually thinking at the time, 'bet some of those BCF lot are up here' ____________________ Current: 02 FZS 1000 Some Bike Pics...
