Good to hear

[GerryB]

Thanks so much for the bike.

You lost a beauty yesterday .

Guys , Jez is a top bloke , and his engineering expertise is obvious in all his bikes .

Cheers mate , all the best with the next bike you get .

[GerryB]

Well , having ridden over a 1000 miles on the bike since buying it from Jezz , its all been good .

Most of the rides , apart from half a dozen to work and back , have been in excess of 100 mile rides .

There was an odd noise from the front end .......

I decided that it was some sort of resonance from the front mudguard .

I checked the bearings , and the brakes .first .

I took it off and fitted rubber washers , the noise has 90% gone .

Fuel consumption , well its averaging at about 12 / 13 miles per litre , about 4 miles per litre better than my old one .

That is just riding , not trying to ride as an economy ride, thats blasting when I can and obviously bumbling along when having to , stuck in traffic .

Other than that , Jezz certainly had this bike well sorted .

Great times .

Its next big trip will be to the ManxGP / Classic TT , 2 up !!!!

Just looking out the window now , sun shine but big black clouds coming in from Wales and I've got to head off to Glos for night shift ......

May be take the chicken option and drive to work ....
