Wasn't me I haven't left Ulladulla all day.
Ride is firm but very composed, have been trying to find the worst patches of roads (plenty to choose from down here) and nothing has crashed right through yet. The best way I can think of to describe it is a velvet glove on a steel fist, a layer of cushion over something quite firm.

Hello Everyone, long time no post.
Not a lot has happened in the 36 odd months since I lasted posted in here. I bought a Daily (Suzuki Swift 1.3L Carb model) drove that for a while, replaced that with an 04 Subaru Liberty 2.0 GT Wagon which I'm still driving. Got a Haltech Elite 1000 with a wideband O2 sensor and controller which I still haven't fitted to the car. Got my bike licence and a bike, a 2018 Kawasaki Versys X 300. Have done a few track days at Wakefield Park with Trackschool and have got my PB down to a 1:14.3.
Current plan is maybe I'll still go turbo, might just do some mild head work and cams. Then maybe turbo down the road.
