I almost got my knee down this afternoon avoiding another biker coming towards me on a left hand bend. Silly me for thinking that there would not be anything coming towards me on the wrong sidde of double solid white lines.

Now need another engine bar cover and a pair of undies.

Funny you should say that, I got some proper used ones. 2 or 3 sets. One of them got bad that it actually wore through the slider and started taking part of the leathers with it as well ':crazy'
