New bike to me

I picked up Skiddys' boxer Monday and rode it the 115 miles back home - very nice smooth ride in a lot more comfort than I'm used to on my GSXR 1000.
Today I used it to go to Liverpool up the M6 with the panniers on, interesting filtering with the touring lids on as I've never had a bike with hard luggage before. Still a great ride when the road opened up - like a ballistic sofa.
Came back off the M way as it was chocka block Southbound. Much fun but a bit heavy on the wrists.
Tonight my mate wanted to go to the Bassets Pole meet which I reluctantly agreed to as I hate the place - its full of crims, gangs, druggies and chavs!
Anyway, I went on the GSXR with the intention of advertising it for sale on the car park. Wow, its quick, light and wild! I forgot what fun it is cranked over with the front wheel skimming the ground.
Its for sale but I'll be sorry to see it go.

Haha, pleased to hear that the two of you are gelling.
