A week Brian? There was 5 weeks of crud on it before I started. They washed it after the service but didn't rinse it properly so it's got nice soapy runs on it now.
Talking of service that's a new front wheel bearing to go with the oil and filter today at 30500 miles, and the wire on the front ESA has broken so there's a repair kit on the way. Probably explains my muttering about the suspension a few weeks back. And next time it'll be new front pads and discs, im on the service limit. Oh yes and the recall for the rear flange I got my second letter about? Fixed at the last service but they didn't tell me in fact I seem to remember I was told I was in the queue. All part of the service...
I do try with the tyres Chris but I could really do with a week in Scotland or south europe to learn how to ride the thing properly. Drivers in the south East and west of England are beginning to get fed up with me elbowing and head butting their mirrors on roundabouts which are about the only corners I go round just now
