So Close!...

I only got this in May, but it’s MoT time tomorrow!
Eye exam in the afternoon so I can read a number plate @21 metres. CBT in a week with luck...
Am insured, so only tax needed as well...
It’s been 25 years since I was last legal on a bike, so I’m pretty excited...

Cheers bud, it’s not a righteous original bike, in fact it’s a mongrel, but that suits me better. I can put my mark on it without feeling like I’m violating it
...@SpookDog No quite.
Honestly, it's getting rare to find unmolested examples these days. I maintain that if mine wasn't stolen and trashed that it would still be standard today.
My RS was just a frame from Germany. Probably involved some smash up over there that wrote it off. I built it from spare parts all over the net. So it being totally non-original is a moot point. The thing should have been placed into the bin!

@Calum
I love rescuing underdogs! I call my bike ‘lil bitch’ cause it’s such a mongrel!!...
PS has the site been down?... -
@SpookDog Site wasn't down, but the IP address changed so I had to find out what it was and update the DNS record. But if you knew the IP you could still access it.
@Calum
I’m not sure how I managed to wander back on tonight? It’s been hanging the last few days, for me...Does the wheelbase look longer with the YZ gumpf? Or is it just me? I haven’t had a chance to measure anything yet, it’s getting dark real sudden and early now. Even taking into account the clocks going back...
The bike passed its MoT! I have insurance! I even have glasses ready next Saturday!! Just got to book my CBT
I’m potentially a happy bunny! 🤪 ... -

@SpookDog Yeah I guess it does look longer.
Happy days bud!
Yeah your browser probably cached the DNS which needed time to change. It's a faff, hasn't changed for years. So it's not too much downtime.
-
If anyone has time and a tape measure, can you please measure the wheel base on a Dtr? From spindle to spindle. I don’t have my bike with me ATM and there’s nothing in the manual. Cheers peeps!...

@SpookDog thats very nice

@SpookDog I'm assuming you live in England? Just a thought, do you have a friend or relative in Wales you can use their address and do your CBT in Wales? Also that's a lovely looking bike you have and my favourite colour.
Cheers guys, I’m not near enough to Wales though. I only just picked up my glasses for the first time today, so I couldn’t of done my CBT any sooner. Life does seem to throw these things in my way though. Never mind, I’ve got the rest done and dusted

...@ The World in general
Man! I so want to go for a ride, rain or not. 25 years is a long time to be off the road
. I am so fucking close to legal that it hurts. I just know that if I do and get pulled, I’ll be shafted 
...Lights (& Looser plates) are on, but not allowed to roam...
