Bike currently has a slight hesitation around 5500rpm, it might benefit from rejetting but it's just so crisp everywhere else that I've not tried improving it. Will fit this and see if anything changes. |

Took the RK out this morning, called in at local bike shop for a chat. They were quiet, so I left it there and walked home so they could MOT it. Still 3 weeks left on the old one, unlike me to be so proactive. 
It passed, no problems. I went the long way home, had it on the limiter in top gear, not as fast as it sounds though...  |

That's Black Mill on Beverley Westwood.
I took the wife's Hornet 250 out today, just to blow the cobwebs off. 16000rpm.  |

Possible links to petrol head chat and only just to do with the bike...well almost...
Our eldest lad (who already has two ARs....imagine my surprise..) has just passed his theory and started Mod 1...
Well he's doing well really, 19 years old and paying for test himself and also bought and rebuilding one AR at his own cost..
But thats not the reason for this post...
THE WIFEY HAS JUST SAID SHE MAY DO HER BIKE TEST TOO......OMG
Run for the hills.....

I think that's brilliant. Family camping trip on Ar125s 
I have been trying to get my wife to do her test but no luck so far. |
