what have you done to your "bike" today

[benny hedges]

double trouble

[benny hedges]

Rode it

At Benny, where did ya get yer rubber trim from ???

http://www.cbsonline.co.uk
theres a link to the item a bit further back. it's the satin black self adhesive stuff.

i was going to wait til the fairing is built up then go all the way across the screen in one piece but decided it would be a pain to change screen so i'll trim it with a separate piece.

(dont look at the grubby fingermarks on the paintwork lol)

Alright, it's shiny and white, lucky the tyres are black or you'd run the risk of being hit by snowploughs...

Seriously, looking good, mate, looking forward to seeing it at Wales next month.
Hope this weather keeps up.

lol sorry dunno what happened there, i deleted one as well!!

[marlbororman]

that looks good, just want summat to trim my fairings, it looks cool

[benny hedges]

was up til 2am t cutting and waxing panels before i realised how nackered i was lol!
i'm about 2ft short of the trim to finish it bah :/ got some more on the way but doubt it'll come today as i only ordered it thursday & yesterday was a day off.
so i'll build it up anyway & fit the trim in situ when it arrives.

good news.... i fitted a fuel filter (as it's been resprayed) whacked in half a gallon and it fired up first time
probably as there was still fuel left in the carbs.
bit smelly with all the cleaning stuff and new paint on the headers but it runs nice & smooth.

god ive missed that sound!!!

it did have a very uneven idle before so i had it set to about 1700rpm, but seems setting the tps properly has sorted it - nice & smooth now at 1100

i still cant ride it yet tho

Get some lessons then m8 or stabilisers

[benny hedges]

mmmh, undecided on these lowers.... the fit well but looks like theres a bit missing in the middle.
i think i'll spray up the pyramid ones and see which i prefer before i put decals on.


and i dont like that honda wing where it is... and it's too small.
it should be in line with the firestorm logo and along that diagonal line....

Mmmm something's very familiar...

[Darknomad]

washed my vtr and mt350 and used a whole bottle of that muckoff spray scrubbed every single chain link with a chain cleaners and someones toothbrush
had a party to go to after so i thought they looked nice and shiny what with wiping em down with a shammy and spraying the none panel bits with the muckoff bike care spray so no cover not knowing after all this time we was gonna have bloody thunderstorms
anyway party was a good un bbq went went before the splashdown
and it was fancy dress
theme was what you wanted to be when you grew up
most of the girls seemed to of all wanted to be slutty nurses
and one guy dressed as wonder woman
he wanted to be a super hero
was very funny
think ill pop to southend for some doughnuts again
