        I'm currently in South Cumbria. I moved out of my flat in East Sheen today, and then will be heading to Australia (Sydney or Melbourne) in the not so distant future.

            @Graeme good luck with your travels and I hope you can take your MC with you to Australia.  That long trip in the cold and rain does not sound like fun, but at least it's behind you and you arrived safe and sound.

            I'm assuming that big brown bag is all of your Iron Heart gear!

              Best of luck on the move @Graeme. I agree that heated grips are a lifesaver.

                Record high temperatures have been nice. Each day I think it's the last possible ride of the year.  A quick attachment of the GoPro to the passenger peg after work Friday.

                        @Bluegrass most of my IH gear is in a crate heading to Australia. Reports that the ship is listing are somewhat exaggerated…

                            This definitely is not the norm. It's usually a lot colder and with snow. I'll take it. Skiing can wait a few more weeks 🙂

                                Get a new MC asap.  Don't fuck around.  Life without a MC is a life diminished.  On the other hand - you can look forward to looking for a new MC  🙂 .

                                  I'm about to relocate to Australia, so the next bike is probably going to be a few months away. I need to get out there and get sorted first.

                                  Not sure what the next one will be. The new watercooled R1200R looks sweet, but the ergonomics didn't seem to quite work for me. I'd need to take another look to be sure.

                                  The Aerial Ace is really cool…

                                      Sorry for the cross post...

                                      Haraki and I are feeling pretty pleased with ourselves.

                                      We have been selected by Yamaha as the first ever non custom bike builder to be involved in their European "Yard Built" initiative.

                                      http://www.yamaha-motor.eu/uk/products/motorcycles/sport-heritage/yard-built/index.aspx

                                      We will be giving the Iron Heart "Yard Built" spin to an XJR1300:

                                      http://www.yamaha-motor.eu/uk/products/motorcycles/sport-heritage/xjr1300.aspx

                                      We selected the bike today.

                                      Feeling like a couple of kids let loose in a sweetshop, starts to describe what we feel like.....

                                      We are allowed to keep the bike at the end of the project.  The only issue to be resolved is whether that is Haraki or me....

                                        So cool.  Being able to keep the bike at the end of it is awesome.  Can't wait to see lots and lots of photos.

                                            Would it be worth building a pair of IH x Yamaha bikes?

                                            There'd be the additional cost of buying a second XJR1300,  but you could split the design costs over two machines, and I suspect that would account for a significant part of the budget.

                                            If the bikes are going to have an afterlife as a promotional tool, then having one in Europe and one in Japan might make sense.

                                            Of course I've got your best interests at heart! 😉
