Re: How to install a fork brace.
Fair enough.
Had my 4th ride today;due to a bit of a flat spot/hunting around 3/4K revs,riding a bit hard,braking a bit hard.
Front end feels ok,but will look into a brace.

Re: Insurance deals
I find the whole insurance industry to be a mystery.
Each year I bounce between Bennetts and Hastings,but neither would insure my vtr,only MCE would.
Premium goes up every year despite no claims/endorsments.

Re: Be careful of this one
Pretty shocked at wesellclassicbikes as they are regularly name checked by a well known classic bike mechanics magazine.

Re: VTR cam chain tensioners
Is there a lifespan for the ccts?
Can they go at say 10K as much as at 50K?

Re: Cam chain tensioner
My ccts are pink dot ones.
Does anyone know how they differ from non pink dot ones?
Did your bike always make bag of spanners sound or has it developed over a period of time?

Re: E10- now they're queuing round the block for it
My local petrol station now receiving 2/3 deliveries a day rather than the usual 3/4 according to the guy behind the counter says.
E7.
Thought that was a postcode but it's a petrol too apparently.

105 miles sounds good!
VTR doesn't like V-power?
Maybe I should sack my mechanic.
