4K panel prices are coming down to the point where you might as well get one over a 1080P

49" one here for just over 500 quid

Re: 1299s or 1199R

Most of the very fast road riders I've come across tend to have the kiss of death about them. One of them hit an old couple who'd stopped in a dip to pick bilberries on the Leek road around the corner from Itches Leap. The other did managed about 100 feet (in the air) from the Sportsman over the pos...

Re: What do you want to vent about today?

D, you can't knock the NHS went it comes to Kids they are unbelievably good, having seen it first hand on numerous occasions. There's no where else in the world I'd want my kids if they were ill.

Old people and the terminally ill, that's a different story. Sadly!

Re: Front end knock

Do you have an Abba stand.? Should be fairly easy to see where the movement is, again enlisting Sarah's help will make it easier.: Have someone apply the front brake & rock the bike back & forwards against the brake (enough so that they can feel that knock). You can the visually inspect the...

Booked it in at the local garage on Saturday morning, don't have any c-spanners and don't fancy using a drift on it. Plus I can't be arsed!

Re: Front end knock

Nope. I had the same thing on the Daytona, I was sure it was the headstock bearings. Finally got around to lifting it and they were fine. Turned out to be the brake discs moving on the rivets I had the same on the Daytona. Ive just tried pushing the bike with the front wheel pushed up to the garage...

Front end knock

After mine and Kwacky's short flight and subsequent hard landing my bike has developed a knock when I brake. Could be the pads moving in the callipers but thinking the headstock bearing might need adjusting.

Anyone know a way of testing the bearings without lifting the front wheel off the ground?
