back home now, my hand is not hurting too much now after 1000KM in a 1.4 diesel fiesta, (with full climate control i might add) then a gutless little peugeot 307 petrol all the way from dover.
bike isn't too bad looking at it, top yoke snapped and tank has lifted a bit at the rear,fork may be bent but it's hard to tell, funny front end on them panzer tanks so who can tell till it's stripped down.
it'll be a couple of weeks before it finds it's way back home anyway,
