I edited my post with the scheme I went for. Its called regalia, should go with the scheme of the bike and being white based should be fairly visible too.

Nice lid
I rode mine into work. Which was a good job as the M40, M42 and the M6 were all buggered.

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
Discovered that the front sprocket bearing has collapsed
On the bright side I now know what was causing the oil leak

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
It's an engine out and gear box split unfortunately. Going to be the thick end of 500 quid if it all goes right and theres no damage internally from the bits of bearing flying around in the gear box.Kwacky wrote:Ooops. I don't think it's a big job to replace.
On the plus side they can do the valve shims while they're in there.

Gave it a quick wash
Lubed the chain
Checked the oil
Rolled it over my foot.

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
Yes the S1000RR has gone, I have not said a great deal about it, but after a test ride a little while ago on the new wheels I had to have it, it felt so right, and with some of the technology it is great for the road. Deposit was put down, but delivery was along way off, I was told September... but out of the blue the phone rang and said do you want your bike now? What do you think? Thank god it was good weather on Saturday
So goodbye to my lovely S1000RR
Say hello to the new winning German S1000R
Not everyone's cup of tea, but I absolutely love it.
I am only running in at the moment and have been keeping the revs down, but the bike feels very sharp, suspension is amazing, hit a bumpy road just select soft and the ride softens up get a nice flat surface, select hard and you feel the difference, rock hard like a track set up... awesome. Looking forward to using this bike a fair bit now, for many years to come.
