:supz: Indeed I will. I spent 40 minutes cutting PVC tape to cover the sponge to keep the dust out (I just hope it stays on). I appreciate your concern :grin:

I only took it through the first 3 gears as it hasn't even been run in properly yet. I still got off with the shakes :supz:

Don't forget a ride report now! Show us what you got with writing skills. I want details and blow-by-blow reporting! Take a camera too!

Camera is packed !! Now if your expecting a report like yours, feeeeerget it. :shock: :lol: I couldn't write a review with such a detailed description if my life depended on it. My writing skills consist of opening the program 101 Great Letters and filling in the blank fields. Seriously though I will do my best but just please don't expect it to be of the same calibre as yours. :grin:

That swill? That wasn't writing, that was just recording my take on the trip. Glad you enjoyed reading it though.
