Showed it the outside world for the first time this year and took it for a 100 mile ride into the East Neuk of Fife and home via visiting my granddaughter.

Everything seems to be working well after doing the annual service.

I even got bright sunshine :good:

Passed MOT with first adviser in 12 yrs of ownership. Play in lower suspension bush (slight). When I queried it saying I've just had the whole thing out, measured and greased everything and checked for play he said, quote, "I'm being an ar$e, it's f@@k all!!" What can you do?

Rode the '92 on a longer trip for the first time. A little over 160 miles. Never missed a beat. Running a bit lean, may need to raise the needle a one notch. Otherwise, flawless. The most comfortable bike I've ever owned.

there's also a smaller J&S on the way from the M62 10 mins from there, so twice the choice in Preston.
