Re: what have you done to your "bike" today
I think the hire company did me a favour now, the 900cc engine might be the perfect size for these type of roads on this island, where the 1200 V4 might have been too much of an animal. I have only found one road on a steep uphill climb where I didn’t have enough grunt to fire out of the turns as f...

Re: GrainStorm IX
What a difference a day makes. USB port fitted and working, tracker reconnected. Only the seat and one side panel off. Mind you, I was thinking about how to test each wire and diagnose yesterday's problems most of the night... Time for a BBQ and some cold beers :beer: 💨 Bloody Italian bikes. It'll a...

Re: GrainStorm IX
Well, considering that all I wanted to do was to replace a usb port with a new one, it turned into a day's work. https://i.postimg.cc/jwLg0nx1/PXL-20240511-115122825.jpg The display and all electrics failed shortly after I disconnected the old usb port, and resisted all attempts to get it back to wo...

Re: Removing/replacing undertray
You also need the brackets to suit the std under tray, assuming that the aftermarket one required non standard brackets. Then it's a simple process: unbolt the required sump bolts, bolt up the standard brackets, and fit the tray. Me thinks your thinking belly pan ? Yellabelly is talking about the u...

Think of it as a Storm on stilts.
You don't do too bad on one of those.

Re: Exhaust header gaskets
Did the old gaskets come out when you took the headers off? They often stay in the port on disassembly, and then you get the problem you describe, as you're trying to fit a new gasket on top of the old one. Try using a pick or screwdriver to make sure the port is "empty".

Scrubbing a new front
I've never been that keen on scrubbing in a new front, but today I put a new Bridgestone RS11 on and happily wandered about for 55 miles. I didn't go anywhere in particular, but took in plenty of roundabouts. I'm about two thirds of the way so far, but that'll do for the first heat cycle. Makes a ch...
