OK, so travelling at a moderate speed of, let's say 88 ft/second (or roughly 26.8224 m/second, and assuming one could ride a full 24 hours per day, how many days would it take to circumnavigate Brakey?

And how many times would you have to stop for petrol , pee break , fag stop ( cigarette - for the American readers )
And I'm sure M8 has offen wanted to circumnavigate Brakey . Just to avoid another machanical job.

Thanks again for the welcomes, the banter and answers to "the question".
I took Badgers advice and bought the one off ebay for £120ish. Came with bulbs etc and is in good nick. All fitted, dips the right way (or left way). When I got the bike, it had failed the mot a year ago on the headlight dip issue, fluctuating front brakes and no reflector. The brakes were gummed up quite badly so I cleaned them and freed off the mounting bobbins. I have just had a dti on them and they are within the tolerance for run out as per manual. Reflector fitted to the rear mudguard below the number plate. MOT (and first ride) due late Wednesday. Fingers crossed.

Bought a download copy of the works manual off FleaBay yesterday.
Now I am after buying a handbook (or a copy of one). Anyone help?
