Re: what have you done to your "bike" today
The Murvinator is prepped for Wales at the weekend, took it up to the local for a drink.
Came home gave it a wipe over to smarten it up a bit after it's drenching earlier in the week.
If I can be arsed I might give Nue Red another stern talking to tomorrow & if it behaves it might go to Wales instead...

Oil checked, tyres kicked. All ready for Wales too 

My new ride is a bit of a Howler and I love to make her Squeal

Added a fan override switch. Took me two days! Nightmare job; the instructions were wrong.

Also wiped the wheels with Gunk so it will look like I might have cleaned it for Wales.
Put the Welsh road sign-based rack on, and sorted out some tools to take.
Threw some clothes in a carrier bag- that'll have to do.

It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

Having had a couple of days saddle butt recovery time after Wales, nipped out on Rothburg to run some errands... Still did nearly 50 miles.
First few recalibrating from 700 miles of flat bars back to clip-on's...

Another trip out on The Murvinator...
Wasted trip to Bluewater as for some reason Santander & Optical Express have decided they don't want branches there anymore...
So under the Thames & into Lakeside where I did some banking & booked an eye test...
Then back over the Thames & headed home...
Still nice & warm & dry but that's due to change over the weekend, I might get a chance to give The Murvinator a wash tomorrow...

100 mile round trip to Stoke for a dyno session and back home via a mate's for coffee. Great info off the Dyno run (TT racer Sam West no less). Fingers crossed I can sort the fuelling now. Lunch stop in the Peak District.

Hey Nick, you can't come out with a statement like that and just leave us all in suspension wondering how the bike performed after all the work that went into the buildfreeridenick wrote: ↑Sat Sep 21, 2024 5:57 pm 100 mile round trip to Stoke for a dyno session and back home via a mate's for coffee.
