    "The Whale"

    Been FIFO for a couple of weeks so took the opportunity to have my wife's Ducati have its 1st service and have the panniers fitted I brought for the bike.
    Oh! my the bike has got a big fat ar*e now (Not my wife fellas) I have had to take them off so it can fit in with the others of the fleet.
    Going to dummy load them up for our next family run so my wife can see what handling differences they make to the bike in general.

    Smart move by me as I dio not have to take a back pack on my bike so free to carve up the corners on the Red Demon (My name for my V4 "S" Ducati).
    Now that I have access to full throttle I have only wound it up to 13,000 on the tacho with 1,500 still to go before the red line.
    All I can say its a very angry bike it is like sitting on a stinger missile once you get past 7,500 - 8,000 on the tacho.

    (Excuse the drive way we are getting it asphalted tomorrow)

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.
