Been a long time.

Well hello world its been a while since my last post regarding the VFR.  2016 was a bad year for riding infact only managed 2 short trips to Chelmsford City Motorcycles for a MOT and returning for a retest. She only failed on tight front brakes which was quickly repaired. We then took a trip to my brothers place in Hereford for a short break. This being the first time properly riding in about a year my skills were a bit rusty, i got back into the rythem after an hour or so while taking the backroad route from Essex to Hereford. With about 30 miles to go i managed to mess up a right hand corner and ran off the road into the soft dirt and fell on my left side. My first crash was fortunatly a very soft landing and only a few extra scratches to the side panels to add to the collection. Happly the trip home was made with no mistakes and Viffer was put way again and not used as while falling off i managed to twist my back and riding was painful.




Now to 2017

Well Viffer has been taxed and insured and is ready to be used, im just waiting for the mornings to be warmer so i can use her for my trip to/from work each day and other trips will be made im sure.

Take care out there .
