Mate you'll love it, but just one word of advice, don't leave it for long periods, the unleaded gets dirty and clogs the jets
Mine has had this problem, also valve clearances can close up if you do long period flat out.

They are shims, so a PITA to do.

Baz.

wow - awesome pics guys

Gawd, that Thruxton's nice!

I rode my son's XJR1300 for the first time earlier this week when I picked it up from the bike shop.

My last ride was this - my CBR1000F (since sold):

Nice setup there....

How did it feel riding this week...

You gotta love the feeling of freedom it gives.....

Only thing that tops it (IMO) is gliding (not hang glinding - real gliding)

Yep, the CBR was a nice ride. Bloody awful on gravel roads though.

It felt strange having not ridden for a while. I was very tentative cornering on the wet roads. The XJR has motocross bars (why are they called bars when there is only one? ) so it feels weird. I'll refit the original bars if I can find it in Lee's stuff. I know I packed up a new bar in his motorcycle stuff. I'll hunt it out.

Glinding?

I haven't been gliding for over 30 years. I know that 'cos I have a pic of Elisabeth getting into the Blanik and she wasn't pregnant with Lee - that was about the last time I flew. Maybe I should take it up again.

I have a few bikes, see the pics, but the best of all I sold last year, the one in my avatar, after finishing fourth in the Aussie Title, to save up for a newer one.

I also own a couple of road bikes and do a lot of ks on one and not a lot on the other. I cant find a pic of my GSX-R750.

I have found one in England I want (the blue one) and I am tossing up whether to fly over to look or trust someone else with looking at it. I suppose if I go over I could buy up on Land Rover bits too, MUD console etc.
