Then sit back have a coffee/beer and admire your handiwork...and wonder why no Motogp team has been banging on your door to make their bikes look as good.Monty wrote:Rubbish, it's the first law of biking bling. Aesthetics first!

I'm so glad I invested in that kit. Despite the appalling weather I was bone dry when I got in. I did leave a big pool of water in the living room, wife wasn't very happy.D6 wrote:For me it was the fact my clothing still hadn't dried from yesterday.Kwacky wrote:Far too windy for the bike today.

Might be buying a nearly new stock rear shock for the kwak.
Bloke says it's only done 500 miles. I might upgrade the spring before I fit it.

What's up with the original ? If replacing it like for like I can't see the benefit as the original one won't have worn out yet. If you want a different spring, get a new spring fitted to your current shock. I may be missing something but what's the point of buying an identical shock to change the spring ? Just change the spring and save some money.

The old one has done 26,000 miles. I thought it would be sensible to get a second one and trick that up before fitting it.

Sorry mate I thought you meant for the SX, getting one for the 6 makes sense. Ktech as Perkles suggests are very good.Kwacky wrote:The old one has done 26,000 miles. I thought it would be sensible to get a second one and trick that up before fitting it.

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
Edit > sorry I posted this here, I thought I was in "what did you get in the post" Thread... Doh!
New phone - Samsung A3 metal body. Downloaded the Samsung smart switch app to transfer all my data, what a simple process, been a long time since I have had to do this, so I was very pleased with the simpleness of it
Put the two phones side by side on the table, choose one as sender one as receiver, push the button and bobs your uncle, job done
So if you have my old number it is no good anymore...
