I think the answer is ‘patiently’. She bruises easily so we had to be careful. Biggest problem was my bare ali floors which were slippery, but once she got a foot onto the cross member she slowly worked her way up, with a little gentle lifting from me. We had a few giggles in the process 🤣. Thanks all for your lovely comments. It was a day to remember, very glad I got to see her on the big day. We are planning a party for her in a month or so, but the day IS the day, at the end of the day! I will certainly cherish the memory, glad I got some good pictures and video to remember it by. Was good to have a little sideways moment, however brief just to say we did 👍

£16348 may include the fees cos it says sold for £15250 elsewhere on the website. Either way I think someone got a good deal....

Happy birthday Julie, have a great day see you soon!🥂🍰

Excellent! Happy 90th birthday to your mum. Cherish every moment, I am sure you do.

I had no illusions that it was. That was just what it was bid to at the time. It went for 16348 or closer to 17300 to the buyer with fees.

Happy birthday Julie,we hope Glen is spoiling you on your birthday 🎉🎂🥳. Hope you're having a great holiday x

I'm starting to wonder if you are a real human Julie or an AI creation. Surely there cannot be a woman who drives and loves Westies, and cake, and Hobgoblin, and can organise blats and meets better than anyone. I just don't believe you're real tbh 😂😂

Thank you guys for the lovely birthday wishes. I can't think why you think I like cake..... We just happen to be staying in Ingleton, North Yorkshire...which just happens to have a bakery.....which we just happen to have to walk past this morning then we had a lovely day walking up this monster, Ingleborough, one of the Yorkshire 3 peaks Afterwards I went for a swim in the outdoor Lido, heated to a very balmy 29 degrees Finished off by a half pint of Hob Goblin IPA and a plate of Arrabbiatta, I think that I have been thoroughly spoiled and have enjoyed every minute of it. All made better by reading your lovely comments and looking at your fun photo's, you're the best XXXX

My dad is the same age, he point blank refuses to go out with me. I suspect he fears revenge for the time in my early 20s when I let him drive my Elan and he tried to scare the poop out of me! 😂

Hope someone can help you real soon. Are there any CBR1000 groups on FaceBook?

I dread to think. Won't affect me though, I'm definitely an aeroscreen boy.

Happy birthday Julie hope you have a great one and Glen treats you as you deserve !! Lots of luv Andy and Becky xxx

That’s filled my heart with joy - never had chance to take my parents out as passed many years before ownership - just praying to be around to take my grandson (2 yrs yesterday) out in it… he already loves it & plays in it if it’s out on the drive when he comes round. memories like that, they’re special 🫶🏼🤝👍

Well spotted eagle eyes! This was loose fitted before it came off the stands and under its own weight - now 16 bolts all torqued up to 40N/m and marker penned 🥰

Hey guys, who runs a CBR1000RR engine? does someone has an spare of those that would let me borrow? (crank speed sensor) Been scammed twice on eBay, and I need one for the first week of July. We are chasing an intermittent misfire in the lobster. We are meant to be in a trackday in two weeks and we were pretty sure it was the crank sensor. ordered trough ebay... twice... been scammed twice, and Honda has them in back order. so... we are fluffed. I promise to return it/replace it for a new one, as soon as I've diagnosed the issue. Or replace it for a new one. Also happy to buy it off you if you are 100% sure yours is 100% functional. Thanks. Maurici.

Wow, lovely story, though I'd have thought you'd be taking it easy and not broadside at the first roundabout.

Don't look at the price of a windscreen...

Well done she's a brave mum I take my 86 year old father in law out regularly he loves it.

that's the 'heritage' element of the Westfield brand 🙄 They told us at Malvern that most of their stock is sent oversees, so hopefully they can now ship to EU

This is excellent.

Half the price!!!! I personnally consider westfield's one far too expensive. Also, when they started again selling parts, they were not able to ship to EU.

Hi, very interesting indeed. Thanks! I think I'll get in touch with them.

I've been trying to persuade my 89yr old Mum to come out in the westy, but to no avail.... I may use this as "ammunition". Any helpful tips for OAP extraction?

Huge difference in price! 😳
