Well the Mrs phoned up the NEC, told them it was my Birthday on Sat and now I have free VIP parking and get to meet all the famous people there backstage.
Parking is useful, but I'm a bit old for the other sh1t now.

Ron, I'm well up for meeting Mcpint if we get chance as I missed him at the TT last year and ended up meeting your favourite person Michael Dunlop in the Honda garage.
Top drawer on the parking as it's supposed to be slashing down on Saturday

UN, try a pre 13 plate zx6r. Plenty about so spares widely available unlike the gsxr. The zx is as fast standard as the 750 as the gixer needs fettling to get the best out of it.

I'll probably keep the Hornet to commute on unless I feel absolute comfy with the replacement.
Ooh, one thing I will say about the triumph switch gear is that if felt absolutely crap compared to the Honda stuff I use.
I 'll post my findings on here so everyone feel free to chip in in case I miss something obvious!!

Your wrists were most probably feeling it because you were leaning on them. If you can improve your core stability you won't need to rest on the bars to support yourself. Your grip on the bars should be very light in any case. Best of luck with your bike search.

Top day out at the bike show yesterday with Ron, Ron's mate, Alex & the ladies. Even bumped into uncle fester & his mrs although I hardly recognised Patrick as he was cunningly disguised as a Mexican :-)

Nice to see you all - i' m still 'hip out' from that bluidy S1000R - safe to say i'll never be a sportsbike rider You're lucky it was a dry finger on your ear though ..... i wasn't 100% sure it was you at first
