thank you
i was very fond of it and i was a little upset to let it go

Managed to get out and do a trials competition today, 1st time on that bike for 4months...good crack and wasn't as rusty as I thought I would be, but the sections were laid out well with no scary stuff so that helped.

Everyone should try trials, it is the most fun you can have on a bike without breaking the
Law, and I used 4l of petrol all day

Also went to the bike show on Saturday to buy a new helmet, and came home with this











Looks very sexy in matt black, the logos are black but as they are reflective they look white in the flash. Bought it as I wanted a very quiet helmet and they are well rated for that, it also has great ventilation and only weighs 1350grams.

Got£100 off the list price, but it was still expensive, just have to tell the wife that 'twas half the cost I paid and i might get away with it

its not east to clean the bug off a mat black lid al
just thought i would put the pic on here of what ive done today
fitted the £25 high level exhaust

Today I got myself some metzeler
Racetec k2
They had only done 2 laps
£105 fitted and balanced

I'm back on a 190 rear again




Can't ride but it don't stop me trying

i had these on my bike briefly before my accident last year, they felt very good once warmed up.......

I will check tomorrow :/

Well after at least 18 months, finally got round to fitting paddock stand bobbins. Used Rivinuts and used the measurements advised by others on here. A worth while job I think.

Picked up the standard clear screen
Of amq46 today and just fitted it
Thank you AMQ46 .
I think it look lots better !

I've never liked tinted screens on a
Black bike
Now what do i do with the tinted one !!!

i'm sure someone will take it off your hands, unless using it will get you 3 points and a fine mate.....

No hanging about there mate Thanks for the swing arm bits

I doubt I will be as quick getting them finished

When I get an itch it has to be scratched even if I get 3 points and a fine !!:)

how you do this

needing something to occupy my mind i thought i'd see how some punto repeat indi's would look inside the air ducts so i did alittle plastic cutting,glued them into the inner panels like this



this is it re-fitted to the fairing....



not quite sure if it works or not...any thoughts ??

I think it'll affect the cooling, but if you don't commute in the summer, city centre stuff, then probably ok.
