Clutch cable snapped on the blade today !!! Orders one for a later model as it runs round the bike and not through it just got to wait till post man brings it !!
Rubbish!
Paddle and kick it into first, then clutchless shifts for the rest of the day. No need to miss a day's riding!

Thrashed it round Devon...172 miles beautiful weather. Great banter. Only one slight off when Vergil decided to visit a hedge. Low speed no damage except to pride....

Cleaned the bike ready for Popkat's funeral, just waiting for some replacement streaming rear indicators to arrive.
Nothing else needs doing, so to kill time I'm going to see Muse at MK bowl .

As the KTM is still waiting for a few parts before I put it back together with new chain & Sprockets plus replace the chain guide.
I took the storm out to go to the Prescott Hill climb bike festival.
Some nice bikes there.
I especially liked this one

Finally got round to the post Devon tlc for Nue Red.
Sorted out the exhaust leak so hopefully less popping n banging. Whiped lots of clag off the swing arm... damm scotoiler. Topped up said scotoiler. Didn't adjust the chain after the 800+ miles...damm scotoiler...Hahaha. Took a leaf out of Tony's handbook of not cleaning it apart from the rear wheel had a wipe off
To be fair there is a hosepipe ban in place.
many thank for posting
