Not sure if he's doing the next lot or not but I will ask him. He's also registered on here as he owns a 750SS that he loves, but doesn't post much.

Your mate did a TOP work on the translation. Sometimes when I'm bored and I've got a book in my sight, I can resist to reading a few pages again and again. And average French bloke as I am, the English version makes me larf as much as the original French one.
