Cheers everyone for the welcome. I wouldn't trust damo neither, sorry about the bike looking squashed, sh!t photographer, he can't even take a decent photo. Only Kidding mate.
Hope you got your nail sorted in your tyre.

Damian wanted to take a photo of the bike while it was out as he said it will probably turn to dust in the sunlight. Cheeky sod.

It was good to meet you too Jon. You coming over for the TT next year ? Bringing a bike ? Show damo the way round haha.

Cheers for the offer of the owners guide jompy. I'm just about figuring it out now. Although damo might say different after I had him pushing me around Ramsey hairpin for 20 minutes coz I thought I had a problem with the alarm stopping it from starting. Turned out I'd hit the kill switch :D . He looked like a ribena berry when he'd finished. :oops: his face was a picture when I flicked the switch and stared it up. Haha. I'm sure he looks back on that day and laughs !

Yeah i got the nail sorted thank god,just what you need at 02.30am at Liverpool docks :doh: Yeah What Alan failed to mention was we were both at the very front of the queue at Ramsey hairpin while a minor accident was being cleared up,after around 15/20 mins or so the police waved us on,i looked behind and it was kerb to kerb bikes and as far into the distance as you could see,so on with the ignition switch and........nothing! I looked at Alan and said "you r kidding me" i could feel the burn of around a thousand pair of eyes in the back of me,so we pushed it to the side and as Alan mentioned he'd used his kill switch and forgot :roll: but we do laugh about it now :lol: :lol: :lol:

He thought it was hilarious. I could tell by look of thunder in his eyes. :evil: haha. I think he would have battered me if he had the breath to ! I'm sure the people behind would have been sympathetic. Haha.
