I think (rare, I know) that HT has a tubeless tyre and is tubing it to retain the cover.
What have you done to your bike today....

, It's got cast wheels and tubeless tyres, Apparently it's not a good idea to tube a tubeless rim, but with a massive 20bhp I'll take a chance and run a tube for now...needs must £££'s etc...get some dosh from a pension in January so I should stop being a miserable twat then

It's got a 3 year warranty Don, I'll let them service it for now and see how many teething troubles arise as it's a completely new bike and engine.
I'm thinking about getting my brother to service it as he is well in with another Enfield dealership and maybe they would " look after "my warranty for a small fee. Brother is an Enfield tech and I trust him far more than a youngster I don't know at an official dealership.

Yep, a GS shouldn't be too clean.
And today's amazing news is I've just given the Daytona a wash before getting her up on the Abba stand and commencing winter tinkering.
Yes, I did it, myself, with water and cleaning products and everything!

Just had a bit of a timid ride over to Ducati Coventry as the Monster is in for service. Was showing as 0 degrees when I started out and just 1 degree most of the way. I don't like riding when the roads are so shitty, but on the positive side, the heated grips work great and together with heated gloves kept me toasty 
The bike is filthy now and I'll have to wash it when I get home

They are vicious in Coventry, they've impaled two poor buggers in the showroom. I'll think twice before complaining about the service

That’s the trouble with Italian brands. It’s all Mafia and innuendo.

Vlad was fond of that. At a moment's notice he would stick something long and sharp innuendo.

Well my Shoei GT Air II certainly proved its worth today - the built-in dark visor was up and down like anything - sun was at eye level the whole time!
Still a nice blast into Leicestershire
Down seeing the clan in London all weekend so no further riding til next week
