Tiz a lovely bike Kev, if my numbers come up I’ll be in touch

[canaletto5]

Cheers Paul!

Just been out for a 20 mile ramble around the Matlock area. Bike's running great. So tempting to give it a blast but I resisted the urge and kept it below 4k revs

Lovely sunny day at last but blinking freezing.

Deposit taken.

Nice one Kev, I hope she goes to a good home

Anyway, you lot in cheesy warrington have all got lurgy now, so it would be unfair for the 380 to go there.
