  8. Started just outside Barnstaple then out to Bridgwater then back over the Quantocks and Exmoor.

    The B3227 from Wiveliscombe to South Molton is an amazing road, no traffic, good surface.......GLF.

  10. Don't have a problem with the back or wrists on mine but after the winter layoff my neck aches after a few miles, more miles and it eases.

  13. No, it's a very light clutch. The Pani, on the other hand (see what I did there?), needs one.

  15. It's the neck that's my problem too.
    Wrists are fine and since I removed loads of plain plates while attempting to stop the terminal drag, I now have a super-light clutch (and no drag or slip either), so I have a very happy left hand ;)

  16. I;d be in a wheelchair if I did 160 on my 916, or fall off at the lights in a sort of rigid dead body type posture..

  17. How does the Bampton to S. molton section compare?
    That would be easier to access from Exeter.

  18. That's a great section!
