NEVER!!!!! We, here in the Republic of Ireland do not have such a thing for Bikes. Only the NCT for cars and a DOE test for commercial vehicles. From approx 20 years of riding and learning the hard way how to fix things after breaking them by being nosey and curious, it won't be going on the road till its 100% safe and reliable. Only a set of Tyres, 4 new exhaust gaskets and a little bit of cosmetic tidying left to do. Progress will be slow for the next few weeks as I'm off to Liverpool for a stags this coming weekend and have a busy month ahead.

What a weekend. Savage spot, Will definately be back.
Hopefully I'll be on a bike this time around. I believe there are some fantastic biking roads in the North-West of England.

Pleased to say I'm back in the land of the living again. Thank Fcuk!! The lil Rex is up and running. Forks are back on after new oil seals and a fresh feed of 15w fork oil. I sorted the coolant leak on the front pipe that runs down by the oil filter and got a set of spurious 42mm o/d exhaust gaskets and the manifold is sealed perfectly. She'll be getting a tax disc next week and I'll be using it as my commuter for work. My wrists are in a heap when I use the 'Blade. 8 miles of negociating slow moving traffic is an absolute killer on a sports bike when you're 18 stone and 6'2"!!! :ele: Will try and get pics up shortly. Dave
