Do you have a colour code for Satan's Diarrhoea? Could be just the ticket if I want to stand out from the crowd

Should be a sticker on the sub frame about half way along curbside top rail.

Use the search button for 'paint codes' theres a list in there...

Damn I'm proud of you Sir!

I must confess I've 'accidently' bought bikes before but it's the way of the world and all that....

Nup, nothing wrong with that.

I've been trawling eBay a few times a day for one. Plenty about, but the right one at the right price evades me.

Put a Benny sticker on the ktm topbox

i think the word for Benny was"character"!!! there were some parts of the man that were infuriating, but you still wanted to spend time with him

Turns out this COVID MOT extension isn't much use if you need to tax your bike

Presumably the online Road Tax thingy hasn't caught up with the MOT extension... So is it a case of risking a trip to the Post Office?

Another job Jobbed! Fitted a HealTech Glpro G2 Gear Indicator.

Fitting it was really quite straightforward once I'd found the correct wires to tap into. Made a dinky little aluminium bracket to mount it on top of the dash with Velcro so I could whip it off for any adjustments.

Setting up was easy enough by running through the gears as the Glpro learns the revs/speed ratio. Once it's learned the ratios it's possible to 'sharpen up' its response times to the point where I've got mine showing the correct gear within a fraction of a second of letting the clutch out.

All in all, I'm dead pleased with it and it's handy to just glance down to see what gear I'm in as I plummet towards a bend or roundabout and I'm not quite sure which gear I'm about to drop into.

Looks good mate, well done.
