Ah, that's more like it!

That's more like it, one sleep later I feel shite - like a booze free hangover - and have missed my lunchtime pub appointment. D'oh. Life and fatigue are back on track.

Seem to be spending a disproportionate amount of time releasing bluebottles ("hello kep'tain*") from the house and they buzz up and down the windows in compound eye stupidity. Wonder where they're coming from. If I did what most folks do, splat 'em, I'd be up to my eyes in bad karma and fly corpses, I'd need George to get rid of 'em. That, just for reference is the big green hoover, not the kitchen grill. Yeuch.

Anyway, power and noise. Amongst other things, saw the current replacement for my bike at the bike night... I ride the 1100cc model of my particular beast, but that's been out of production for six years. Now they've made a 1400cc.... I rather like the look of it to be honest, if I were in the mood for to purchase "Son of MileEater". I think the mirrors suck dead donkeys, and I don't like the aerodynamic fins down the side (reminicent of the RF900, how middle aged is that), but the look of the thing - the front end - is just so damned agressive I'd want to give it a go. Performance wise, it's supposed to be limited to 299 kph..... wonder how easy that restrictor is to remove......




*If you got this reference you may be as sad as me!
