Good afternoon tinkering in the garage.

Fitted a power commander v, stripped and greased the suspension linkages and added some ride height to the rear shock.

Will head out for a test tide tomorrow.

Packed up the track bike. I've managed to fettle the leathers so I can do the fly's up with some pliers and the jacket with a key ring. Not practical for road riding but fine on the track.

Going to check Fridays forecast again and if it's still OK I will be booking Friday at Mallory.

Road to devils dyke in Brighton today around 180 mile round trip. Great ride out with TVAM had some good feed back today, the observers were saying I am riding well and to carry in like I am

Although on the crap side, I got caught out on a dual carriage way doing 70 at a set of traffic lights went straight through them as I we braking I felt as if the rear end would of bucked up so had to carry on to the second set. Bloody light was there as well. Am nervous now don't want points a stupid mistake. I remember seeing the lights and thinking be perpared to stop so I checked my mirrors because there was a fair few other bikes behind me and didn't want them hitting my rear end and when I looked back it was bloody amber and red had no other choice.

Did too much sliding on the speedway bike yesterday and too much partying last night to feel like going out on the bike today.

Swapped it for a street..... For a day. Street didn't look right when I picked it up. It was all shiney and new. By the time I got home it was like this.

Anyone remember the character Pig-Pen from Peanuts?

Hahhaha, yeah that's me. I dunno how it happens. I just touch things and they turn dirty.

The mechanic cleaned my bike though, and did a bloody good job, Took it to staffs Triumph. He cleaned far better than I ever do.

Feels a new bike. Handles and stops much better and seems smoother. I bet the tyres are at correct pressure!!!

Nice new chain too. Wonder if I can get another 16,000 miles out of ti without ever cleaning or lubing it. lol.

Nothing yet. Was hoping to get straight out on the bike after I had took the kids to school but been raining all morning which was not the forecast or plan

Just found some black anodised alloy bolts in my spares draw so fitted them to the tinted screen on the ten, looks much better now.
