We have had some good weather for a few days.

The weather here in Essex has been quite nice for the last week so i have used the VFR every day to come to work. Its been a little chilly in the mornings but not uncomfortable and really hot on the way home which hasn't been so nice. Viffer has in the last few days rolled onto 98K miles. My new front brake pads i fitted a month ago are still squeaking when rolling the bike around slowly but they are working very well now having bedded onto the old discs that have covered 65k ish miles. Im starting to feel sad that its getting near to the time of year for putting the bike away for the winter. But on the bright side i wont have to fit new tyres till next season, the PR3's have done nearly 7K miles and the rear still has a lot of life left in it but the front is nearly worn out. Since i have lost 2 stone the rear shock is over sprung so im riding the front tyre really hard at the moment. I really need to go get the rear shock adjusted but haven't had the time to get to MCT in Stowmarket where i bought it. Until next time ride safe and enjoy whats left of the better weather.
