Have we been chatting on facecake about the same bike by any chance? :thumbup: Yes we have! Facecake indeed :lol: New, bigger, AGM battery will arrive later. Bike started straight up this morning, and my Mrs laughed at me for buying it a fleece blanket to put over it, under the cover :lol: Hopefull...

The optimiser is going on tonight, may even see if I can fit the bike into the house through the side door (What's the bet on my mother in law saying 'no')

Also got an AGM battery on it's way, should also help.

Thanks Sirch, shan't post from my phone again :lol: :lol: Definitely the nuts, managed to walk to a nearby (1 mile) shop and get a 19mm spanner. Been on the phone with the dealer, they're sending me new nuts and loctite, they did offer to pick the bike up and look at it but they're 130 miles away an...

Yellow is the best.

Apart from red, that's the fastest.

Sprocket nuts have come loose and jammed the rear wheel up in the swingarm. Dealer I bought it from boasted a '52 point check'.
Angry phone call in the morning, this could have been a lot worse if I wasn't only doing 50

So you'll never guess what's just happened.

Took her out for a few miles just now, struggled to start. Choke isn't staying out, clip broken? Indicators are quite iffy, had to push hard to get them to turn on. Maybe I'll take the switchgear apart later. Occasionally it sort of coughs, and it feels like something has hit it, but carries on anyw...

Think it's because I posted from my mobile, flipped my images around haha! Good to know on the pairs, maybe it just needs a bit of a tune. I am thinking about replacing the cans though. Kent is a bit of a ride for me but thank you for the offer! I'm sure I could do it myself but it'll take 5 times l...

Hope there's enough bins...

Here she is! My '97 VTR. (if the pics upload... Might imgur it) But now the questions... Anyone in Hampshire got the know-how to fit MCCTs and willing to do it for me (ill pay Ofc) or help me to do it? Also, has anyone installed PAIRS blanking plates? Seen it removes the popping an aftermarket exhau...

Hi Konrad!
Welcome to the site!

Thanks for the welcome everyone! I can't wait for her to arrive. I've already grabbed some Xenon bulbs as I saw the complaints on the stock headlight not being great. Looking at these cam chain adjusters next, and may pick up a spare swingarm linkage too (recently did the bearings on my gsxf and it...

Hi guys, Acoustic camera testing has begun, with the first set up just outside Loomies Moto Cafe in the layby. Hadn't seen anything here about it so thought I'd share for those who don't see it on social media. https://i.postimg.cc/w19bYTTL/2019-11-20-09-28-20-Loomies-Moto-Cafe-Google-Maps.png Caref...
