    Well just ran the bike for a while and it's still hunting all over the place and running on 3 cyl, I think new plugs are in need and maybe a bit of balancing of the throttle bodies. 

    Bob how much would you guys charge for balancing?

    You might be able to do it with a two Carburettor Synchronizer if its all you can get, on my CB1000 the carbs were in pairs so you could balance each pair first, the two left together and then the two right and then once your happy with them balance  the two middle carbs job done

    We get loads in the countryside around Edinburgh, when I was up in the highlands last year I had a Stag literally walk past me within a few feet when I was just about to get back on the bike, it obviously didn’t feel threatened by me but the feeling wasn’t mutual, it was huge and had antlers like a forest.

    I seen quite a few when we were doing the NC500. Quite rare to see them down here even though they are about, Also had a bloody big fox run across my path i see them regular not sure what they taste like though.

    Are you making this shit up again...though your meat was exported....I've only seen sheeps and goats...

    When i was out yesterday i came up a steep rocky path into a clearing and surprised a herd of deer, i was as surprised as they were, never seen them out in the open like that before when trail riding usually just catch a glimpse of one hidden in-between the trees. They went mental trying to get away while i was fumbling for my camera. Anyway the point i'm trying to make is we have those here as well and they taste delicious :classic_laugh:

    Looks like something I would have really enjoyed, but Sofia maybe not so much. Having missed those kinds of roads I still think I saw pretty ones riding up through Wales, although maybe more mainstream ones.

    Without a doubt Pedro you can't do them all in a short trip. I rode a few roads i haven't done before yesterday and there's lot's more.

    Where is this lane Fred ?  If it's the one I'm thinking of I rode it may years ago with Paul but I had no idea where we were. Possible somewhere near Beulah ?

    It's here only a short one but it was bloody slippery and it don't get much better in the dry weather quite deceiving.

    IMG_2146.thumb.JPG.e81aed432ee745b498f38997d0db7b14.JPG

    after this i was feeling a bit knackered so i just headed home via Llangadog and over the black mountains which now has speed cameras as well as a 40mph speed limit cant see me using that road much in the future. I ended up going down to Neath and doing a few more lanes around there and then home.

    I’m probably preaching to the converted here but do you leave your bike in gear in those situations?

    Yes always, the auto decompressor must have been on as it rolled forward enough for it to roll off the stand
