Fort Augustus

Friday morning overlooking Loch Ness.

Sadly my last ride on the mighty T!!

Great pic, thats where I spent all of my school years, and still consider it "home". I feel the need to visit again soon, and on the T would be fun.

Aye Akra min.. a bonny sight richt enough....an the loch looks nae bad as weel....ye,ll miss iyon T big style!

yeah , beautiful scenery, whats with the last ride tho?

Aye, I will miss the attitude of the T. I have been fortunate enough to have owned 2 of them.

The wife has given up riding and is now a full time pillion. After the ride to Fort Augustus we were both in loads of pain, slow speeds, etc. The seats on the 2010 are not as comfy as the 2007 either. That is fact!!

Gone and bought a ZZR1400 for the comfort thing. Gonna miss the Tuono though.

Akra is that Nessie in the background.

Nae luck wae yer T mucker but needs must, I hope yer enjoy yer Kawa.

Rico and Aldo, yeah, I went into the garage tonight and had a look at her. Pretty bummed out about the whole gig, but as Aldo says, needs must. My wife passed her test a few years ago and I feel she done it because of me. I have to keep her interest up, so have decided to buy a lazy-boy (but pretty quick, 197 bhp at the crank) bike to get us through this mess. I have to say that after taking the cans off (which are on e-bay just now), the bike looks pretty stripped.

I will miss the head turning as you roll past people, also the bike farting and popping on the over-run. 3rd gear seems to be the best with my one. I did get the suspension set up at Bob Grants at Knockhill (ex-racer and Ohlins specialist), so she handles seriously better than when she came out the crate.

Got loads of pics though, so I think I will make a collage for the wall.

I'm jealous of you guys!!

Cheers,

Arron.
