    Hi Bondy here....thanks for the replies.....I finnished up riding to Heytesbury which is near...Warminster....I started off a bit slow....but got on okay and picked up alot on way home...
    I have to say my flipping clutch hand was killing me though..
    Is it possible to buy a smaller clutch lever?? I am sure there is a way of adjusting the clutch lever.....will have to investigate.....
    Any way I am hoping to go with the other club tomorroow who are off to Watchit?
    Hey my lad who rides with Yorkshire bikers club is going to the MGM doo at butlins next year is any one going????

    Heytesbury? My loop went out that way! May have passed you going in the other direction, passed a few bikes out that way all exchanged nods. What do you ride?

    My clutch hand aches too, but thats a result of an injury! You can certainly get various styles of levers - I'm sure there will be some 'experts' along to advise soon. Have fun at Watchet tomorrow. I have seen the Butlins do advertised, but don't know anyone who is going. Did drift through my mind to go myself! :-/

    We could learn a lot from crayons; some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, while others bright, some have weird names, but they all have learned to live together in the same box.”

    Hi......yes did see a few bikes out... all going the other way..I ride a CBR600 red white blue....like the fireblade colours..I took some photos of it today so I will add it to my profile soon...

    The MGM doo sounds good....they do a fancy dress ....and hopefully the gang from my sons club will go ..they are a good fun group....but I reckon we will have to book early cos there are chalets to share etc....

    I thought it would be good if we could get a few from here....drive to Doncaster where my lad is stop there rest or stop over...then all ride on to the venue.......

    Can't recall seeing a CBR, I was on Black Beast (FZ1) as pictured left but using a lid and leathers before any smart alecs comment!

    If you have a link or details of tha MGM do post it and then people can see it entails and get back to you.

    I got someone coming round tomorrow to look at buying a bike so am waiting in. Also been to Watchet in the past...not a lot there! Pillion? Not now I can pull a clutch in again! I presently potter about as still not 100% fit and still learning the FZ1.

    Bondy, what bike do you ride. I'm going to Watchet tomorrow if this weather holds up. Where abouts are you meeting?

    As for the lever, try adjusting it first. It might even be your clutch cable...so many possibilities. We can have a chat tomorrow
