I`ve Silverwinged 400 odd miles this month, I very rarely creep back on to the roads until late April at the earliest.
Looking at the beeb its possibly our last warm day in the North today, might hold on elsewhere.
Trouble is its got me in the mood again and now maybe 2 months to wait again.
Bikes all over here at the moment like I`ve never seen at this time of year.
Kept on dry roads so no actual salty spray as of yet, but a big wash off needed as things cool down.
Lets hope we get a few days like this in March.
I remember a week in January about 20/22 years ago was blistering.
Riding in February !!!

I’ve just been out over East Suffolk back roads to Aldeburgh then across to Stowmarket.
19c showing on the clock and with the horrors being back at school roads were very quiet.
Bliss.

Skutorr m8 I've done it several times over the years on the srv and overall it's not to bad to do if you have the tool for spreading the clutch .I normally borrowed one from my old dealership but now live 300 miles away so ,I will have to have a m8 round to assist by standing on the clutch.
