  3. Oof. Thanks. Needed that.

    Went for a run to a pub with a friend who's just bought his first
    'proper' bike - a pre-VTEC VFR800.

    We both swapped bikes to HAGM. I'd forgotten just how wonderful those
    old Viffers are, and he got off the Trumf with a great grin on his face.

    That was quick. It's taken me 4.5 months to do 1000 miles on my
    recently aquired CBF600 [1].

    [1] Oh.

    Is that all = the CB13's up to 1700 already.

    It'll be a bloody sight higher by next week, if the Wing has an
    unfortunate MOT moment, too. Expires Thursday.

    Just been out on the big old beast for the first time since September.

    Everything seems to work, fingers crossed for tomorrow.

    I have put 1800 miles on my Versys since March 1st. In roughly the same
    time I've clocked up just over 6500 miles in my company Astravan.

  7. Um, I took delivery on 3 April. So that's about three weeks. Not that
    good, really.

    I'm a 2 bike family but the 'Busa's only been let out a few times this
    year so that's not going to help much. I think the only answer is to
    move further away from work.

    I picked up my XT on the 21st March and I've done 600 miles on it so
    far.

    I suppose the difference is that I've only had one weekend since then
    that I've spent at home. It'll go over the 1000 mile mark when I'm off
    over the bank holiday weekend so I'll not think I'm being cruel if I
    pull wheelies on it.

    It's all relative.
