Did the same, just too nice not to. At one point my temperature machine was showing 18c. Nice. Pleasant day for riding.
Guy on a MT10 past me making a right racket. Thought i would get up close to have a look, looks like he has taken the baffle out. Sorry couldn't live with that row all the time. I am looking for way's of quietening the things not making em noisier.
No i will NOT get an electric bike.

Must say Nev, bike looking good.

I know you are not into cruiser. There are some really good deals going at the mo. (no we are not looking for one)

If I were to lose the Cat and the second Silencer Box, This bike would be really loud.......... Just taking the Baffle out has made only a small difference so far..... It's no where near as loud as a 125 ... or a Harley though so I'm not being a Feckin Antisocial Fuckwit.............But, It might all change after the Run-in period.......... oh and thanks...... It does do it for me too................

I put my jacket, boots, gloves and helmet on.

Then I took them off again and had a sit down with a coffee. Absolutely knackered. :'-(

I enjoyed sitting on a bench in the sun, watching all the bikes going along the main road. It won't be much longer before I can join in. There must have been a lot of people having a day off :)
I'm very tempted to ask someone to come and get the Striple out for me and maybe follow me to town and get it's MOT done. That's cheating, I know, but I'm longing to ride again soon.

It’s looking very nice Snev.

I don’t think I’d ever have a white bike though. I’d have to clean it properly 😶
