Ahhhhh the extra 1000revs man that was good. Took it up to near a ton well at one point a ton was achieved . I guess you just be gentle and build up now. 30 years since I ran a bike in last.

I have just spent 2 hours cleaning it. It was cr4ppy to say the least. Im afraid the toothbrush came out.

Oh another tip for new school monster owners. If they do work on your bike undoubtably the tank covers will come off at some time. I checked before I rode home that the screws were in the side lower panels and yes they were. Today I discover the lefthand one vacant as in missing/lost/not there/gone even. Take an allen key with you and check tightness yourself. I know Ryan lost some and they charged him a tenner for a poxy little screw. I will source some better grade ones and replace mine.
