Re: what have you done to your "bike" today
Bought a new dyson animal !!
It was fun getting it home .
Then gave piggys tank a few more costs of paint .
Thought while I have the paint out I'll do the fork lowers and front wheel [THUMBS UP SIGN].
Then fitted a few decals to the tank .

Dumped excess oil out of the LC4, adjusted some levers, stuck the LH grip back on and took it for a thrash. Knobblies on damp tarmac are fine as long as you are careful, keep some throttle on in the corners and don't overload the front.
Hmmm. Poor technique on one left-hander gave the front a major push which was only saved with a hefty dab. I'm now limping with a black and very sore big toenail.

Repaired the damage done to zxr750 at Cadwell last week, bent a rearset and cut a gash in the bellypan. All fibreglass ed up now, not going to bother painting it.
Was a bloody good day at the track though.

Artfully placed I feel.
Highly embarrassing, I didn't fall off it
It fell off the side stand in the paddock while I was pissing about with the rear facing camera [POUTING FACE]

I parked my Varadero on a path with a high kerb once, when I went to pull away and bump down the kerb my disc lock caught in the front caliper and sent me flying in front of my non-biking mates...

yesterday was 1st ride of the year on the Storm when I sneaked out to get new backtyre.
fun to be out and start getting the reactions back up to speed, new Mich PR2 helped stabilise things, but still not as planted as I remember!
