Lyn, lol... :lol: yea, I had to wrong trousers on. Wore my biking jeans, should have put my Frank Thomas gear on. But the heated grips were luvely! So, overall you lot are just like me, haven't done many miles over winter. I tell you, this summer I'll ride the whatnots off of mine. Got some serious bike time to make up. As said, it's a fantastic feeling getting back on the bike when you haven't ridden much. You kinda forget just how great biking is.

My GTS is still under warranty so it's going into Colchester Kawasaki for it's annual service in a couple of weeks. It's unlikely it will go back there for any other services, not because they are not a good dealer but I will do the second annual service myself in good time if there are no faults showing up. Then when it's out of warranty I'm going to fit a Malossi 282 V4 head and cylinder/piston kit along with a Malossi Force Master injection control unit. I'll pop in an upgear kit too. I'm told it pushes up rear wheel ps to around 23.5-24 with close to 27.5 at the crank. With the upgear kit it is a 95mph bike! I'll set it up on the dyno to get the best out of it. The Malossi stuff is really good kit too.

Any of you lot doing any mods or got any planned??

mottza, you need to get your out more!

ps. went out on it again today, not quite so many miles covered but came back with the same bloody great smile. :D

Data, been busy with work and other stuff. Plus if I go out for a 45 min ride I spend the same time cleaning the scooter afterwards.

But the weather is getting better hopefully

mottza, know what you mean...I tend to clean mine almost everytime after a run at this time of year. Although I use an arsenal of anti salt anti corrosion chemicals on the bike so it pretty much stays protected ok even if I don't clean it.
