Re: what have you done to your "bike" today
Plastex, of course thanks for reminding me. I used it for mending a fairing mounting on my VFR a while ago. Should still have some somewhere, i will give it a try.

took the old z1000 out for a run to the coast and it did nothing but cough and splutter all the way there,layed some flowers in the gf's favourate spot...she must be watching me because it never missed a beat all the way home,washed it,polished it then put it to bed.....tried to start the sp but battery was flat so give it a kick in disgust,walked out and slammed the door...a mixed day really

what have you done to your "bike" today
Today I fitted the front mudguard


It looks nice I think
Can't ride but it don't stop me trying

Re: what have you done to your "bike" today
Hmmm, yes I think the silver option, to break it up a little, looks best. But that Blade does look nice.

Re: what have you done to your "bike" today
this is my first modified bike, and in fairness i've had a mechanic do most of the work, but in the future i intend to grab some spanners myself and get stuck in, i hope to be at the next workshop meet.....
