Re: what have you done to your "bike" today

Cleaned my brakes up, amazing the effect a couple stuck pistons can have on the lever. Also twisted my TPS as far anti clockwise as it would go. No idea on resistance reading as space was limited.

Re: what have you done to your "bike" today

Is the speedo reading massively off or are you really ploughing along at 120?? Kph maybe, sprocket changes? The revs just dont justify the speed.
