Put some electric and petrol in and off it went.
It's going to blow up now or something isn't it?

Same here - or rather first ride - did a few twiddles on it yesterday. Pleasant and uneventful, apart from discovering a bike shop in Worcester that can service Aprilias - has all the diagnostic kit, incl. the systems that replaced the Axone.

Did you wear your hat mart?
Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

I had a spin for half an hour but it was rush hour so I came home. Looking forward to a new riding about season.

Took her out today for the first time in months. A few miles in and it started snowing a little, still a bit chilly lol
I forgot how quick she was. The rumble was lovely
