After an absence of months and months I have finally got my M1 tank back from Dream Machine, its stunning as it was the first time and I'm promised there will be no reaction this time.

I took it out for the first ride since probably October last year, I can't smile wide enough, 250 miles today and apart from the aches and pains that brings on it was ace, I'd almost forgotten how good this thing is, brilliant.

The only trouble is, you can't be in a rush as I never park without a crowd, I've had to brush up on my conversation ending skills lOl

I was a bit too busy riding but I've made a few changes since it was last on out and it is better for it so will do a few decent pictures at the weekend.

Heres a suprise though, 250 miles in a day on an M1, eat like a pig (more like eat a pig) and lose 4 pounds, result :yup: I do feel like I spent the day in the gym though.
