I've bought a second set of carbs and am going to try and make one working set out of the two, its a winter project though as i'm up to my eyes in work at the moment.

Maybe that's cause we're out RIDING them!!!

I'm still using mine, just had to reinsure, MOT and tax it, it's still going strong after the 10,000 miles of thrashery I've given it over the last 12 months! Love it

Though I'm still saving up for my big beaut in a year's time  :wink:

Many of the 250 owners here are Down Under, so winter is just starting to wrap up down there and they'll be bringing their bikes out soon.

Goodonya Greg, Jackprick Bastard :lol:  :lol:

Just when I thought it was safe to put away the winter jacket - 3 days of temps over 15 - today it pisses down - I just love living in sunny downtown Wagga.

Well, in England, the coldest summer ever is drawing to a close, and now comes miserably wet autumn! (Last summer was hot last year but rained ALMOST everyday) Still, can't complain, I have my Scirocco for when I want to wimp out lol

Started my new job yestrday! Anyway, I managed to get from the middle of Leicester (during rush hour) to my home in 22 minutes which is well good. It would have taken over twice that in the car
