well, if our roads weren't so crap and potholed up, I'd have at least changed out the wheels and stuff. I've only got an exhaust kit on it

Still thinking about the Termi kit? Twin slip ons or the 2 into 1 full system? [evil] I would love an 1100 with a 2 into 1 system.

yeah. slip ons. I want to keep the undertail look like stock... also, if I can pick up that givi mount for panniers it's built around stock cans

Yep, gotcha. If rego was cheaper here, I would get an 1100 Hyper and put dual sport tyres on it instead of an old Elefant. Maybe even the CCW tank and pods kit. I have DP saddle bags that would fit which came to me via speeddog, via Nibor! ;D I really like Hypers.

Your roads sound like ours.

my car has 80,000 miles on it, and I don't like to think about how many times I've had to replace tires  [bang] stupid low profile sporty rubber

Hi Ted, hi all!

Managed to get a short (40 min) ride in this arvo, prior to picking up some meds from the chemist and the kids from school.

Thoroughly enjoyable. Even a short ride is good for the soul!

New RST jacket worked a treat!

Double thumbs up!

DP, looking at the pics of your house build, it's easy to see why. You Sir are very, very handy!

It's a sensational looking house. You must have an incredible sense of achievement.

In the fist few pics, what were all the poly pipes in the foundation for? Heating, drainage, or other? I've never seen anything like it. Is that an American standard thing, or special design of yours?

Those are for radiant heat. It's very popular over here because of the efficiency. If the floor is warm the house feels warm, assuming it isn't drafty, even at temps that would otherwise feel chilly.
