It is but the pictures do flatter it. The bike is no silk purse now, but is tidy and presentable and mechanically sound. I have to say the SW Motech crash bars have certainly played their part in protecting it and the exhaust has been beat to buggery as have all the plastics, a fresh coat of paint hides a lot. Shadow took it out yesterday and loved being back on two wheels although she came back after popping to her mates for an hour. Her shoulder is still sore, which is not a surprise. Her confidence is intact.

Nah mate she is still keen. You should see her handle a twin engine 40 foot rib out in the bay. Proper petrol head. The Harbour Commission in town have already offered her a job on the Harbour patrol boat next year. She also has chosen her A2 bike for when she passes her test. She is also talking about the RNLI, now that would worry me, but would be very proud nonetheless.

Issue is fixed, the forum is now successfully patched. Admins also have my contact details again incase something should come up. Anyone curious on the Business it's growing strong: https://webspain.net/ Best Regards, Scott

Hey Everyone, On Wednesday there was a massive PHP security issue which also affected this forum, i patched it, and it seems something has gone wrong in the patching. The forum should be running normally in the coming hours. Apologies, Scott

Took it apart today to fit guards on the rad and the oil rad, put it back together and didn't have any bits left over. Sadly couldn't find anywhere interesting to take a photo so its by the side of the road in Basingstoke

He's been looking at bus porn again

You have made Shadow very happy Lyn,

Not sure you will like it mate but she has got her heart set on a the new Kawasaki Ninja Z500 A2. One of my curmudgeon crew has one and she fell in love with it. . Mainly because it is small and light (164 kg) and they do a red and black one. I think a Honda CBR500R would be a better option for her but I do have a Honda thing, plus Dads know nothing.

My only picture out this month. Will do better in November.

That's what gives it character...personality as well... definitely NOT sitting in some shed covered in years of dust... Again, Nice work in keeping that beast alive for Shadow.

It's got a few years to go yet to catch up

Tintern Abbey 4th October

The Bisons Nanven Beach.

Weldone Scott, Dad would love it.. Lyn.

See... you can't kill a good group/site.

Well that's a possibility that I can look at.

Instead of a unicorn?

It's not the GS, there’s always that. And it depicts the struggle of the motorcyclist in 2026

I love her she has Balls..I mean that in the nicest possible way.

Little qwad ride today...

That place is nearly as old as you.

Not 100 % sure this is from Oct...

Just tell her to not bother and there is nothing wrong with being a hunchback. Then start calling her Quasimodo.

Update for Shadow, as she had a trip to the fracture clinic yesterday. Needs to have an operation to sort her shoulder or live with the unsightly lump she now has. She has to go back in two weeks with her decision and they will take it from there. She knows my opinion, have it fixe,d but I am not going to badger her being a teenager she will kick back and not do what I say. She is pretty smart and will see its in her own interest to have it done but it has to be her idea so I will keep quiet.

What have the Romans ever done for us

Shadow is home and safe in and a fair bit of pain but she will be fine in time, she will learn. In two years and 20,000 miles she has been down twice, her fault, and knocked off once, not her fault. I know I went down a few times at her age through being young and reckless so I am not too quick to judge her. I do trust her though she is good on a bike but still just 19 and thinks she is bullet proof.

What the Philip Island race should have looked like....

Wasn't Pete's son looking after "the business"?

Took the big Honda to the dealer today for the yearly MOT.. well they came with a van to take it away, Full of cold myself or Dying of man flu...ill-ist bloke who ever survived anyway got my Honda ANF125 back from my mate. I loaned it to him 5 years ago when he had a Heart attack and could not ride a bigger bike...so now the power house is back home bought it to use as a shopper..got a 150 power kit to fit and Ali wheels from a Honda sum-ut-else so i can fit better tyres..will do for the winter.

Ditto...

Some of my mates all bought s/h ANF's a couple of years ago and used them to trail ride to the Dragon Rally

as above count me in. Lyn.

I don’t have an error message. All looks normal to me. If it needs some dosh to set up something new I’m happy to weigh in.

Cheers, I actually remembered to take some when I was out just now so all good.

Parcel is dew between 3 and 4 today.

Ok Ok, what bike does she want Saul||||,i do hope it's a real Bike...

Glad she hasn't been put off riding by the little off, and hopefully its her last off for a bloody long time

45mph? That's a tough bike!

Nice work Sir....can hardly tell it's been through what it's been through...

Octopus spunk.

It was lovely, stick to your baked beans

A man went to a urologist and told him that he was having a problem and that he was unable to get his Penis erect. After a complete exam the Doctor told the man that the muscles around the base of his penis were damaged from a prior viral infection and there was nothing he could do for him. However, he knew of an experimental treatment that might work, if he were willing to take the risk. The treatment consisted of implanting muscle tissue from an elephant's trunk in the man's penis. The man thought about it for a while. The thought of going through life without ever experiencing sex again was just too much for him to bear. So, with the assurance that there would be no cruelty or adverse effect on the elephant, the man decided to go for it. A few weeks after the operation, he was given the green light to use his newly renovated equipment. As a result, he planned a romantic evening with his girlfriend and took her to one of the nicest restaurants in the city. However, in the middle of dinner he felt a stirring between his legs that continued to the point of being extremely painful. To release the pressure, he unzipped his fly and immediately his penis sprang from his pants, went to the top of the table, grabbed a roll, then returned to his pants. His girlfriend was stunned at first, but then with a sly smile on her face said: "That was incredible. Can you do that again?" With his eyes watering, he replied: "I think I can, but I'm not sure if I can fit another Roll up my Arse."

All the best Shadow hope you heal quickly.
