Niken!

Went to Poole bike night for the first time this year - had the traditional poor-quality sausage and chips (wrecking my diet for the day), and saw a Niken for the first time in the metal.  Do like, but would be just a novelty I suppose. H2 reached 1000 miles on the way back, I need to cut down on the usage - not had it 3 weeks yet!

'Peds with attitude

Was lent this today while the Kwak was being serviced, a Z650.  It felt a bit tiny and hopeless at first, but give it some beans and it sounds angry!  It's like an aggressive chuhuahua, I was soon thrashing it along and cackling at it's impotent rage. 

More H2 stuff

Finally completed 500 miles of dawdling yesterday, which means I can now rev it up to 6000rpm (~95mph).  Been out all day with some friends and covered another 100 miles so it's ready for it's first service now.  Currently returning 33mpg, which I suppose is 1mpg better than the KTM.
