what have you done to your "bike" today

[rollingthunderx2]

Got stranded coming home yesterday when it would'nt start after stopping, eventually got a jump,lights very dim coming 12mls home...
left it outside last night/today on charge
.After commuting Mon on dry roads it was covered in salt spray, the hose was still frozen so could'nt wash it, got home tonight and the heavy rain has left it spotless .
Started first time.... Battery? Reg/rect?
Got the test meter out, had loaned it to a "friend" who said it did'nt work, looked inside, fuse blown,now wrapped in silver paper...resistor burnt too... so he has connected it up wrong or something, so I'm going to put a bulb on a wire in the live feed from the RR to have a guess at what is coming out, but somehow I dont think this will have healed overnight...

i've already had words with him...very nearly came to blows but walked out before it did...thanks for that carl,it took 2hrs to get them to that and will probably take another 2 to get them back to how they were before..

Took it for a little ride to test the clutch and advancer .

The clutch works great now with the stronger springs :-)
And as for the advancer :-) :-) I like it a lot .
It revs up faster and smoother and with more pull . It feels like its got more torque though out the rev range
Was it worth the £35 I paid for it .......YES :-)

haven't done anything to either bike today, but i did recieve a lovely parcel thru the post from glsr, my new adustable plates for my spondon rearsets, adonised black with several positions of adjustment, very impressed with the workmanship, mark you are a genius fella...
there was also a little bit of ti in the box and a pair of s/s linkpipes, it felt like the xmas i never had....
i might have to splash out on some ti bolts for the rearsets.....

i do love those big motobatt batteries, if only they weren't slow yellow
anyways, heres a couple of pics of the bike and my new rearsets for the spondon frame....

blue two is still in hundreds of pieces mate, its spread thru out the house with parts in two different bedrooms, garden and shed....
i also took some video but deleted it by mistake....
the pegs have 6 different positions, maximum of 1 inch down and 1 inch back, it should make things more comfy for longer rides....
