I hope it was company petrol/mileage

Bikes cool though

how much was it?

if i did 600 miles in my car to collect that, it would cost me 170 just in fuel.

Nowt wrong with a road trip for a bike.

Drove a similar distance to pick up my first TA about 6 years ago. Nice to make a day of it and to know you got something nice waiting at the other end

ive been after the bars for as long as i can remember and did nt want them damaging, the other bits on it are a bonus so all good, i never thought of dale
the cost of fuel does nt bother me i wanted the bars (laughing) ive had 7 pm asking about the bars
so all in all a good road trip
