Fitted new clutch plates, pressure plates, springs, and new clutch cover (thank god for ebay!) on the bike, then realised I had forgotten to buy oil to refill it....buggerf*ck!!
A very windy ride around Kent then over to Essex. Cleaned the bike, 1st time since French trip. Found final drive level plug loose and oil had leaked onto back wheel. Not a good advert for Metropolis motorcycles. As I have not long had a major service there. Lucky I caught it in time as it could have turned out very expensive.
I rode to bourton on the water down the Fosse way, I'm told it's a very old Roman road but I had a fab ride, was finding my feet when a sharp bend came up and I scared myself when I realised I was going through it faster than I normally do! I'm told it's over 300 mile round trip, but I loved it :-)
Stu n i went up to Helmsley, then over the N Y Moors, through Castleton, onto Sandsend, Whitby and home via Moors, Pickering, Malton n lovely country lanes. A nice ride out which took around 4 hours with lunch thrown into mix at Sandsend.
Not a drop of rain until we pulled onto the drive at home!
