I do remember suggesting at the time that Jukie may be trading Betty in for a younger model.  :o  [laugh]

Hey!

Normally she jokes about me being younger than most of you old farts ... perhaps Chris is younger ??? ... but I've obviously had a hard life :-[

Betty, you are like a Ducati Monster...a timeless beauty, full of character, good looking and quite sophisticated. And the older you get, the more these qualities apply.  [thumbsup] Sure, maybe one day you may even be classified as vintage, but you will always be a Ducati Monster.  ;D

Jukie

oooh chris is not younger than betty, i was going for the more experienced one :o :o :o [roll]

Jukie,
Back on topic, how is Jukie riding at the moment? Must be nice to have Jukie back. I bet the first ride was a bit special.
;D  [thumbsup]

Jukie

So pleased that it all turned out OK, especially considering the dramas that you had to start with. Can't wait to see Jukie's new paint job.

So how's the throttle control then and using a late appex to get through corners quicker and smoother. 

Jukie

Yes much easier with little effort, I wasn't really speeding just doing better cornering. It was a very good time, just to practise and not worrying about other bikes or car cutting me off. no one in sight [thumbsup]

After nagging her for years about trying to turn in later it was good to see her taking the advice (of someone else [roll]) ... seems I will have absolutely no chance of keeping up with her now.

Ahh such is life at the back of the pack [laugh]
