And breathe...
Welcome to the site, although you might want not to shout so much the next time, my ears are still hurting. :wink:
Why's your clutch worn out after that trip? OK, so a fair trip, but still...

8) Welcome to the site Norm999R. Seem's like you are in deep with your bike at the moment. Maybe you've been rude to her recently. Like most females, they don't take kindly to abuse. Stay strong, dude, don't let her break you! 8)
