Cheers.

Having trouble finding an appointment for Mod 2- might be April before I can get in.

Congratulations on passing Oct. And on the nbd! Most say that mod 1 is the harder of the two.
Very jealous of your triumph! Lovely bike.

Thanks mate- I can't wait to get it.

Black bikes are the best. Trust me. Must be like having a cheque you can't cash waiting for your test.

Yeah it is a bit.

I went out earlier on the 125- it is ok but I crave more power, dammit.

Being very, very careful with the 125 too as any damage would jeopardise the part-ex price I was given.

Oh well, things will progress soon enough.

I've been meaning to find an empty parking lot and do some low speed practise. The aim?...this:

This has opened my eyes to what is actually possible!

Had my Mod 2 today.

I......... PASSED!

Was properly nasty weather though- had torrential rain and even a bit of hail.

Congratulations!

Yippee

See  you on a ride out soon.

Nice work!

cruxiform

Well done and congrats!

octatonic

Thanks people.

boogieman

Well done that man. Triumph time now.

Fusionista

Well done. You are now one of the most highly-skilled and knowledgeable people on the road, and your vehicle does not allow you to doze off but on the contrary demands you pay full attention to what is going on around you. Good luck with that and ride safely.

Congrats mate, good work.

Enjoy the street triple!

So, not only was I sans-internet for a while, I was also sans-motorbike... and now I'm not sans-anything.

Vrrrrm...

Mustn't confuse them and ride the internet to work, or try downloading with my bike...

After a bit of a delay it has arrived.

OMFG- so much power!

I went for quick trip down to Kingston and back.

Really nice to ride, instant power- found myself up the speed limit at no time at all- didn't push past that yet but it feels like a proper hooligan bike.

After the 125 it is quite a step up.

Also to that- after being quite anonymous on a 125 it was quite a surprise to see how many people would turn and stare at it.

Yes, I'm shallow, I know.

I am also in love.
