My alarm provides the ramped bleep, gets pretty loud and gets on my nerves most of the time! Might give the above a go, be nice for it to now bleep when sitting at the lights with the brake on! If you need a brighter idiot light you could always put a high intensity LED in there instead of the stand...

Today I have mostly been........dropping it when moving it.
rock.
Luckily had a grip on it like a turd on a blanket so not much damage, just a few scrapes

Amazing clouds!

Was on a canal boat for a few a couple of years ago and spotted this....

---------if it is grabbing, if I knew how to do that I would fix mine! Grabbing would be lovely!! Slipping like a b8stard (plates are fooked) :eek2 head bearings ------ can be fun getting the lower race off the stem, but as I said, I have Hammers and grinders, you just might not want to watch! Hamm...

Morning guys, I'd definitely be up for it if it was during May! Clutch needs sorting and possibly head bearings! Only ever changed head bearings on bikes I was building from bits, never when the bike was together!

Lol I didn't realise you could mute it!! Still fairly new to the phone so was scrabbling around with it like a muppet trying to shut it up! What a tw@t!

Ok, didn't realise that YouTube bypassed the silent settings on my phone...the people around me at work were giving me dodgy looks for playing that first vid!

"Damnit" Rob, I could have used that nail to keep the bloody birdbox up in the first place..... Sorry Chris! Hell, at the rate I'm picking up nails at the moment the whole neighbourhood will be able to have securely fastened birdboxes! :thumbup: Did the dent come out ok then? Was there an...

Chris, had a "pleased, then...." moment myself this morning! Went out for a ride on the freshly cleaned and polished storm to find this in the tyre when getting off the bike! :eek2 :eek2 :eek2 :eek2 :eek2 http://i816.photobucket.com/albums/zz88/robs_red_storm/7776a030.jpg Luckily I only ha...

could you feel any vibration through the bars when braking? lol...yeah I can! Good job I've not got any fillings!! I'll have to dig the stand out and see what I can do with attaching it, be a few weeks yet though...on my stag do :beer: next weekend then all over the place after that with work! I'll...

Cheers Benny, good thinking there! Gives me a chance to fully clean the calipers as well

Right then, dial gauge and a bash with a hammer. I can do that! :thumbup: What sort of stand/clamp are people using for the gauge? I've only got a cheapo magnetic stand bought for a prior job....any ideas? :?: Can borrow almost any form of tool from the workshops at work as long as I know what I'm l...

red ones are fastest

Second that

tbh, I never really use the fronts as the engine can do the same job (and sound amazing through the scorpions whilst its at it )

Changed out front wheel bearings today, bearing need replacing on the top yoke as well...ho hum, the list of work goes on and on...

My discs are on the way out as well, just passed the mot with them though! If you find a solution let me know! Strange that the front warp, I'm the same that I mainly use the engine braking. Could be that not enough heat gets into the discs for when they are used hard, so sudden heat generation caus...
