Re: what have you done to your "bike" today
I thought I would ignore that comment. The only butt plug I got is a firestorm, more than can say for your stinky gas butt.so you don't deny the dodgy buttplug then....
Get some pics up Dragon. Are they not standard Storm pipes then.

Re: what have you done to your "bike" today
Fitted the Carbonadi engine covers last night -
Today was also the first decent ride since fitting the new carbs with the Factory Pro Ti jet kit and the K&N air filter. The bike rides really well with no flat spots and pulls like a train throughout the rev range, just by following the instructions in the jet kit and stepping up to 177 & 180 mains, needles on the 2nd clip down, 48 pilots and the air screws set at one and three quarters and two out. I will put it on a dyno to make sure it's fuelling correctly but I am well pleased to have hit a very rideable setting straight out of the box.
Miracles do ferking happen!!!!!

Great work kev and the blue oyster is looking nice :-)
Re: what have you done to your "bike" today
I'm going to have to get me some of those engine covers. They look good
Glad the carbs are running well. That is something else I have to do to mine
May have to wait for a workshop day to get it all done. Rather have someone who knows exactally what they are doing helping than me guessing

Re: what have you done to your "bike" today
went for a little ride through wales with a mate on one of his bikes -
hes also got a crm450, rc30, nc30, rc45, rg250, nsr250, rd125lc and several others i havent seen yet! jammy git lol
he'd just spent a grand on servicing, tyres, chain&sprox on the 916
also met up with another chap on an nc30 and by the crouton he could chuck that thing around lol - seriously had my work cut out keeping pace in the twisty bits! as soon as he saw a chevron coming up he was off the seat ready!
i was trying my hardest not to cheat by sticking behind him on the straights and phew what a ride lol!
and the 916! he'd just had the forks rebuilt too and had it set up proper and it rode like a dream!
another chap was 2 up on his 10r and got left for dead lol - usually he's right in there but i'll let him off as he had his mrs on the back!
came home to find a NIP from tuesday' evening's ride on the cat n fiddle :/
56mph in a 50.
so beware guys - zero tolerance on the cams up there

You do not have to say anything. But it may harm your defence if you do not mention when posting something which you later rely on in quote. Anything you do say may be ripped to sh*t.
