what have you done to your "bike" today

[agentpineapple]

all this cleaning and painting and putting makeup on your missus... you would think there was prizes being handed out next weekend at the motorcycle museum! bunch of tarts

me tart my bike up...............never

yesterday I touched up the paint on my forks. also a few spots needed doing on the rear black caliper.
checked all the fluids again. re-routed my usb power lead. just need to pack me topbox and i'm good to go....
just checked the weather for Saturday, it's not looking to good now....

[fabiostar]

i pushed the blue one up the road,thankfully close from home...

why you ask?

because my chain went up past my fecking head another one, thats 2 in two years.. oiled.adjusted blah blah all that good sh1t... now last time it was the joining link so fair enough.. for the blue bike i bought an izuma race chain.530 non o ring as its not gona get winter use. clean break not at the joining link. but after some hunting im now starting to think the box said izuma but no markings on the chain? at all.... not something you check when you buy a sealed in the box and in the plastic wrapping chain....

that feeling you get when you realise more than likely you have been turned over.. im gona have a hunt to see what shop i got it of on the tinternet and explain to them whats happened after 1500 miles. if that doesnt work im gona shove it up somebodies butt ...

thankfully no damage to the bike at all...

this rant was brought to you be a v angry man

No way, not another one
Like Pete points out, you were very fortunate nothing more serious happened, although that would have been scary enough I'm sure,

ain't done nothing yet. but i'll be giving the bike a much needed wash this afternoon, I also need to find a small oil leak from the rhs side, it's leaving a lovely sheen on my right boot doh!!!!

[alanfjones1411]

Washed and polished it after yesterday's wet ride to Birmingham

[podman]

Ill confess I had my bike stripped down by 2:45 yesterday and didnt come in until id finished cleaning it at 7:30, ill be refitting the exhausts/fairings etc later but at least its tidy again after the good soaking on the way to Brum.

[fabiostar]

took a coastal ride on old yellow. i rode like a complete fanny enjoying looking round me, so slow infact i got 121 before the red light came on . oh the shame of it..

[MacV2]

Watch this space...No.5 ????
























Yes it has some bling destined for the bin, rides ok but the front brake is shocking, must have a masive air bubble in there, you know its bad when the rear slows you down better than the fronts...!!! Eekkk

Oh & the fact the fluid in the pot looks like tar prob aint helping matters...

43k i'm the 12th owner...

So tomorrow I will mainly sorting the brakes & de blinging it...The good news is I bid him £50 & sold the extra belly pan I got with it to Andy me Storming neighbour for another niffty... Anyone wanna buy some tat rad covers & a nice lazer cut chain guard ??
