Hehehe !!!
It absolutely bucketed it down ! I had to pull over as I couldn't see anything at all - windscreen wipers work fine, but glasses, visor and inside ofwindscreen were running with water ! Inches of it in the footwell, and every time a car went past on the other side of the road, a river flooded into the car ! It was GREAT !!!

Sounds familiar..All you need to do is lose the windscreen/wipers and get a helmet

Gotta helmet already
I quite like the windscreen though, but I do have some full heigh doors to help with the stuff blowing in from the side !
I keep being told I will abandon the windscreen in favour of the aeroscreen though !

I have been in cars with them (and I'm quite tall, but not as tall as you!), but I don't want to wear a helmet every time I go on the road...
We'll see what happens but I've other more pressing things to spend money on, I'll add it to the list

The current owner phoned me yesterday to warn me about the brake pads (race pads which need warming up) as he was worried I'd stack it into the first roundabout..
Anybody know how much warming up they need? I assume I'll need to keep them warm on the motorway for those "i need to brake heavily" moments - anybody know how often to drag the brake pedal a bit??

Doesn't Kelk have the same routine in his 111R or is mine just special?
