Picked it up after 5pm, apparently took ages to upload the info to the alarm
( why they are not standard amazes me ). Anyway with new tires I took it
pretty easy but its a joy to ride and I am one happy person ( but a lot
poorer in dollar terms )

eternity to you!)
Didja get luggage on it too?

Remember Cox's Corollary to Murphy's Law. "Any vehicle purchased or
repainted or both will sustain damage within the first three months after
said purchase or repaint or both."

Finally got Carol to take it around the block a few times yesterday.
It'd be noice to have her do Q-Ride before Christmas.

Had this old fellow look at me then pull put from the side street ...
thankfully I was travelling slow so just a little lean and no problems. But
this old fart actually saw me, he looked then still pulled out......And as
for Cox's Corally to Murp...well have proven that correct on quite a few
previous occasions but hopefully not this time

Anyway had a nice run through the national park , at the moment 7000rpm is
the limit whilst breaking in and thats about 180k's

Not that you would really know, being that there is nowhere you can legally
do that except for the track and the NT (though not for much longer)
