Great blast to Oban today.. with my mate Mick on his gixxer 750 and Keith on his GS (no slouch on it). Goes to show any bike in the right hands will not be to far behind.

This was our first outing really in around 6 or 7 weeks due to our horrendous weather. I reckon so far this is the poorest summer we've had in a very long time.

The road from Oban to Lochgilphead/Inverary was in great condition...as was the whole way round actually. Nice and hot and those Michelins I have on are super sticky...


The guy with that cracking Blue Gixxer 750 had a really bad smash outside Inverary last year on a Blade he was telling me.. so he bought this and made some changes.. Carbon Rims... Nitron rear Shock and Inserts proper set up in Glasgow and some sticky rubber..oh and a can too... about 4 grands worth... hes a shortarse so butchered the seat and got up this morning not having finished it so he just taped it up...lol.

Really smart machine..

Stu

Looks like you got a decent day for it Stuart! Makes a change! It'll be the usuall, nice and sunny and warm when the rest of us are at work, and pissing it down at the weekend when we are all off!!!

No too keen on the oysters though!!!
 
Glad you hade a good run Stuart, Malic was over at mine today, his exhaust makes mine sound like it has the ignition switched off, lol. The Laird of Paisley would love the racket I'm sure.

Going to try to head over to the BMW thing at the Welly at the weekend, are you going? Just so I know what day to avoid, hahahahahahahahahaha.

That Gsxr looks quite good, I got a wallet made from Duct tape when I was in the RAF, it lasted years.
