Falco passed her MOT with flying colours yesterday afternoon. Took her for a short blast after work which turned into a 3 hour jaunt around Warwickshire & Northamptonshire.
Am thinking I need to lift the bars over the top of the yokes.. That should be just enough I think.

Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handle bars to the saddle.
