took the shock linkages out, cleaned and lubed them and all back in, did I notice the difference, maybe a bit, but happy how its going. I did manage 139 miles today on 1 tankful, then light came on, that was riding it reasonably. its better faster lol. That was yesterday, today, ive done my favourite roundabout and small link road about 25 times this morning at 0545, really quiet and getting the handling a bit suited to me. The brakes seem bloody amazing, loving the power of this thing.

I was beginning to think (as we'd heard nothing from you during the day) you had ridden over to Popkats

Bike giving 14.5 v so seems ok.

Good work Kev

Chris.

The red one I got a few weeks ago had its cams rotated and a years MOT. Fella came to look at her today and she is now on her way to the Republic of Ireland. Cost me 750 including servicing and the MOT and got 1150 for her so feels pretty good

well done 110 miles out last night with my big mate james on his husky . lovely guy ,very quietly spoken polite guy who wouldnt harm a fly. who turns into a fecking lunatic on a bike ..

two ditches. one open gate into a field,half a hedge stuck to my bike and paint from a tractor on my leg ..

the joys of riding a supermoto. id forgot how much fun bikes can be at times..

Finally got it on the Dyno.

Great, I hope you will tell us a bit more about

Got some one to push it in to the MacCave as it's b een sitting outside since i brought it home on tues after this viewtopic.php?f=18&t=42425#p463701 & just getting back from hospital today...

just back off holidays and back to finish the jobs I started before I left.

had already taken the forks out and off to Revs racing for a service and re-spring before teh holiday, so hopefully they will be done by end of this week,

then today:
I took ohlins rear shock back out to get it adjusted for more sag,
fitted service kits to clutch slave & master
fitted braided hose
bleed the clutch

so bike on ramp with no front forks or wheel and no rear suspension to hold wheel up .... so I hope the jack doesn't lower its self

Bought another red storm. Having it shipped over here. CCT issue. 20k miles and looks decent. Even the fork legs look clean
