Drove the Bullet down to West Cornwall :)

Camping? ;D
Wouldn't matter if I had, bloody gorgeous down here, sunshine and blue sky. Not ventured out, so might be bloody freezing for all I know, but windscreen looks clear

Lucky you weren't here Thursday then,it was a little wet :-X

Started fitting my new air horns (because I'm a massively overgrown child) and ran out of wire... so gave it a quick wash, cleaned and waxed the wheels, fitted new bulbs for sides and main*, and after a bit of gentle adjustment with Mr Angle Grinder, fitted a shiny exhaust tip...

*slicing my hands to pieces in the process
