Well today is the wife's 61st Birthday and our 36th Wedding Anniversary.

Funnily enough 3 days ago would have been the 47th Anniversary of my marriage to her predecessor!

Send her a kiss from me, Pete. All the best for you both!

Got my Honda today, popped into see a mate on the way home and parked next to his unridden one.   He has all the farkles and all the shine but not one mile on it yet.  Nice though.  
Very pleased with my bike though, just gotta get a few miles on it now.

I am loving it mate, smaller lighter and faster.  Comfy at low speed and handles well when you wind it up, feels like a big 125 in size.   Early days yet as I have only done 40 miles but I am well pleased.

Isn't the clutch and gearbox superb?

How tall and heavy are you Saul? I sat on my mate’s bike and found it tiny and low.

Compared to my bike that is no surprise though.

Very good mate, a joy to use.   There was an X parked next to mine in the showroom, looked quite a bit taller to my eye.

I've never seen your model out on the road so I'm not sure how different it is.

Bugger I should have taken some photos.  The x was a green one too, my favourite colour.    Showroom was full of bikes all lined up waiting for the new 23reg number.

Notice how smooth it is, and how easy it is to ride?

It´s 172cm. I think taller than you and you would find it too small/short.

I could see that. My mate who has the red CB in the pictures is shorter than me. 😉

I'll admit it - I'm a wussy. But it was -16C this morning and the roads are still covered with shit.

Soon though, soon.
