I'm not doing as many miles as i'd like but i am on 598 miles now. Problem i have at the mo is i can only do about 30mins of riding then i loose the feeling in my hands! [emoji15] And balls! [emoji15] I suppose it's just case of getting used to the bike or do a flat bar conversion. [emoji28] [emoji15]

Welcome mate. That R1 you have is a superb bike and rare to find one with that mileage on. Enjoy it, you deserve it after all the crap you've been through over the last few years.

Thanks Boz. That's really nice of you.
But to be honest, i'm no different to the next guy or gal! Everyone has highs and lows and i'm sure there are plenty who have had worse.
She is on 598 miles now.
So i shall now start to open her up and hopefully gain some much needed confidence.
I really wanna do a track day but money and time are a big nightmare at the mo.
