Re: new tyres :)
Currently running Pirelli Angel ST's which I love and last pretty well. Fancy trying Metzeler Roadtec Z8 Interact, anyone any experience of theses? Seem to get good reviews and possibly last longer. 65 mile/day commute so need something that lasts but needs to be a 'touring' tyre good for both wet a...

Re: This weather STINKS!
Just bought some new gear from Hein Gericke. Well, it's definitely waterproof
That proved, wish the rain would now piss off

Re: Fuel consumption
They aren't that bad, just seems it 'cos the tank is small. Obviously if you go everywhere at full throttle it will guzzle the fuel - same as any bike.

Re: Miss Your Storm - Would you? Do You? Why?
Bought my Storm new 10 years ago. Recently bought a new bike but kept the Storm as well. Love it, but it realistically it's not worth a lot so kept it for commuting. The commute is 65 miles/day so it's now getting more use than ever :D Been attacked by salt, dropped twice and has let me down once. D...

Re: what have you done to your "bike" today
Looks good. Plenty of salt damage on mine, a bit of black paint would cover it up nicely
And as it's Yellow, anything black looks good

Re: Should my next project be to build an Ark?
At least my bike and all my gear got a good wash coming home tonight
Need some good weather to put more miles on the Griso though. Really want that 1st service done asap.

Peaklife 3.5" Motorcycle Weatherproof GPS SAT/NAV
Anyone got one? Just bought one brand new off eBay for £90. Waterproof, mounts, loads of cables inc. 12V - 5V supply. Comes with Igo8 + maps but Win CE 5 based so can get TomTom running on it, but I've heard good things about Igo8. Worth a try - other dedicated bike Sat Navs are stupid money and bu...

Re: CNC kit
Look good, but they should show exactly what they mean by re-profiling, looks quite extreme from the photo.
How do you hack away at your fairing and screen and make it look like it was supposed to be like that?

Re: Clutch Replacement
Any idea how many miles that clutch had done before it started slipping?
Glad you got it sorted, looked pretty easy to do.

Re: Diavel test
could I take a moment to apologise to everyone for my little Meistersinger (F7 is shite) earlier. I typed the dreaded F word by mistake, sent it and then realised.

Re: Diavel test
Was tempted by the Diavel but wasn't sure. Decided that if I had to think about it then it wasn't for me. Sounds like a good decision, every bike goes fast in a straight line, but they don't all corner the same......... Prefer the Hypermotard, my mates wife has one - great fun but wouldn't want to s...
