RXNine fresh MOT, first ride on it, goes OK, no wobbles, handles OK, rear is a bit stiff. Even managed to do the head races properly this time... :lol: :lol:

Image

I did have to put some differnt indis on the rear as the the ones in the undertray are too close together & I did slip some baffles in as the Arts on it are a tad loud... PARDON ?

I do need to service the shock linkage just for peace of mind, maybe do the fork oil...

It's for sale if anyone wants it... I'll put it up for 18k ono with all the good bits on it... Only issue is the chopped fairing... :(

Not today but Tuesday, in preparation for the run up to the 25th Anniversary meet. Went to start the bike, lots of clicking, no starting! This is despite the attention of a CTek minder! Hmm, check the battery on a meter shows 13v static 11. Something cranking. Stick it on a charger and it shows full charged instantly. Noticed the CTek is only showing 2 yellow lights and was getting very warm! Ordered new battery and from MDS, which arrived next day 👍. All good bike starts and runs great, CTek still only showing 2 yellow lights and getting hot. Bought another CTek plugged into bike and went through the correct process with all lights showing fully charged battery and no heat! Guess they can only be dropped so many times by clumsy buffoons before they give up the ghost!!
