73000 this morning in the dark and rain, not much of a photo opportunity. Bike fitted with new plugs and the secondary air feed, and the new UJ in the shaft drive, another £921.52 thankyou very much. Plus a new visor and pinlock rounds it up to a grand this month and I haven't bought any petrol yet. The bike sounds quite aggressive at tickover, the Akra spitting out shots of gas, or maybe its because I've had captain civilized puttering away inoffensively for a week and forgotten. I had to re-train my thumbs to go back to indicators on the left again last week, after taking 3 years to remove the habit of the previous 37 years. Hence my signaling and lights was all over the place this morning. And watch out for pump 12 at Exeter services, varies between biblical flood rate and off in a nanometer of trigger movement, and yes it did splash all over the tank harness.
