My Other One...

Martin decided to get his chopper out up the back alley today...

After yesterday's thirty kilometre dirt track ride, I'm not suffering near as much as expected! However, I do need a better saddle! I also need to realign the gears; of the two gear selectors, the three left/front gears are fine. But of the six right/back I can only use the higher four!

But my other one, this Hyosung GV250 Aquila, has an engine is in need of even more work! Something in the electrics is preventing the engine from turning over... Martin thinks it could be the 'tip-over sensor' which cuts all power if you fall off the bike banks too far!

Hopefully it'll be running soon, though it makes little difference to me for two reasons! First; I can't ride it because training for the ADI licence has taken priority over training for a motorbike licence. Secondly, it technically isn't my bike! One fifth of it is mine, the rest belongs to mum!

In the background you can also see Martin's FJR1300; a beast of a sports-tourer! This is commonly used by UK Police and Paramedics too, and is exceptionally comfortable for even the pillion! It also packs a good amount of power from it's 1300cc engine! You might be able to make out Lola too behind!

Another early finish at work today which was great! The latest for the week though at 13:14; tomorrow is the earliest of my shifts starting at 04:07 and finishing at...10:50! Perfect for enjoying the sunshine and warmth in the afternoon!

Happy Days!!!
