Tank Slap - Motorcycle Forum

Tell a lie, I've sorted the brake lever guard.

Tried out the new Garmin camera this morning. Whilst the view from the bars isn't perfect as it has half the screen in frame, the footage itself is excellent.
I took the Mutley down the B4364 from Bridgnorth and then looped round back through Cleobury Mortimer and along the B4363 back to Bridgnorth. Great ride down there as always though the road surface on the 4364 is in desperate need of repair in many places.

Sold my monster today,the bloke asked how I got the tyres so torn up and I told him I was on it at mallory.He said monsters ground out the exhaust round edwinas then went on to show me how much of my end can was missing I didn't even notice it he still bought it though

I'll have to look at your photos to see if there are any sparks.

Excellent That's got to come with some blagging rights, getting the cans down has got to outdo the hero blobs..

Washed and waxed it after yesterdays fun, it really does need a full fairing off clean but I can't be arsed at the moment it can wait until I've got more time.

Bled the rear brake again as it stopped working again The rearsets where supposed to fix that, but I might blame myself for doing a crap job when I fitted the pads..

didnt they have a recall for rear brake fade ??

Yep. Apparently all they did was drill a hole in the master cylinder and install a bleed nipple. Not really a fix.

The only fix was to move the master away from the engine. Actually that reminds me, it could be the brake line as that got scorched against the exhaust after I fitted the rear sets.

Gonna give it a bath and put it on the battery charger for a week.

My son very kindly paid for his and my bike to be cleaned and have an ACF50 treatment , from http://allyearbiker.co.uk/ , I havent cleaned mine for 7 months it was filthy , he did a spanking job on it (2hrs) and it now looks lovely and shiny and clean
