Re: GRAINSTORM IV 22nd April 2017.

To be fair wicky, today was the first ride out for the storm so it was more of a shake down ride, didn't realise that I would shake entire calipers off lol.

AND...... I just wanted to see what it was like to have the engine out 180, I mean you hear so much about it lol

Re: a bit of spondoness.

I had the rsvr factory, fantastic bikes, engine, sound and looks, nearly killed myself on it and lost my licence on it. Only had it for 3 months.

Rear brakes a shitter though, need to do brake line mod or the link pipe boils the fluid withing 5 mins of riding.

Re: GRAINSTORM IV 22nd April 2017.

Not long!!! Passed my MOT today so definitely riding up. Gonna have a few things that I will need assistance with which gives us all something to do! Battery isn't holding charge. I think it goes back to the time I put it in the wrong way round. Rough running. However I think it's more in the lower...

Have you put the right backs on the right fronts and not swapped them by mistake?

Re: Halfords battery charger fire

I had one of those chargers, I only used it maybe a dozen times over the 7 years I had it and then it just packed up. What was the state of the wiring, was it hard and dried out, an internal break in the insulation could have caused a short. I replaced mine with a motobatt fat boy charger, great bit...

Re: Oil leak from speedo sensor

Replace sensor, happens with cps on cars. Was it a new or used sensor? If new then replace under warranty

Has the wire got caught on anything and pulled?

Re: Track bike problems...

If your selling on eBay then take into account the 10% selling fees and the 3.4% PayPal fees, the time it will take to sell and I believe you'll only get about £200 for the engine with it effectively needing a rebuild. I would look around for an engine to swap in, one that comes with a 30 day warran...

Re: Look what I got

I was watching these. The seller made them up himself on his CNC machine at work, and did a pretty good job at copying the original. He said he could make me some in the right size for the SP2 for £80, which seems a bargain. It's probably worth contacting him if you need some for a Storm. Lol nice ...

Re: Look what I got

I've always wanted a pair of them. Best you can get IMO as there is no fairing trimming involved with the adjustment you have. Should be three way adjustment on them. Quality piece of kit right down to their index markings on them for aligning the same. Come on then...how much of a bargain then? Di...

Re: Project Blue MK2

I'm really jealous of the yokes but they won't fit my 50mm forks, although if you ever want to let go of the front end I could be persuaded lol
