Cheers man.
Yeah, the weather has been cooking over here for the last couple of months. Stands to reason that it's going to rain while i'm on holiday. I have been to Wales a few times when it hasn't rained, but i don't think this time will be one of them. I have a cabin booked for the week, so at least i'll have somewhere to get dry.

I played Rugby in Wales in the late 80's man, they gave me an easy job a house and a car as it was supposed to be an amateur sport but you know , anyways , the first 2 weeks I was there it was sunny and beautiful weather , I thought this place was the best kept secret on earth man , everyone I trained with or worked with or drank with said "it's not ever like this"and I thought yea phucking sure it's not day 14 and yea it rained almost every day from that day on till I left.
Cheers man enjoy

Lol. I was thinking about your last trip, and watching the video, wondering how much you must really like the stock little windshield.

Actually enjoy it during this hot humid weather but 800 miles running 80mph+ was not as pleasant. I'll probably switch back and forth during the year depending on travel plans since it only takes 5 minutes. A little longer this time since a Harley Monkey had cross threaded one of the damn factory screws!!!!! That was also the main reason I wore a full face helmet on that trip besides the extra protection.

I'm thinking of taking some pain killers and trying a ride on it.

Resist the temptation, not worth it, and I think you're smarter than that.
