I left mine at home today and took the car. It's easier on a Friday otherwise I have to take a change of clothes in. Dress down Fridays are crap.

What have you done

Post by **Fireblade_Ro** » 14 Nov 2015, 15:12

Braved the wind, rain and cold to ride my IAMs cross check...

...how do you make your head move more?!?! I turn my head more than I need to so Im showing that Im checking my (lorry sized) mirrors but each time I've been observed they say they can't see my head moving

It was a challenging ride, but loved it - even with the weather!

daft question probably but is your lid one colour?

Post by **Fireblade_Ro** » 14 Nov 2015, 15:41

Its a Shark Nasty... black with bits of hot pink. At the back is mostly black though....

Post by **Kwacky** » 14 Nov 2015, 15:59

I'm wondering if they can't see the movement due to the colour?

Sounds like a very good reason to treat myself to a new lid.... got my eye on the Guy Martin replica

Nice lid Ro and some great deals around

Seen the K3 GM rep for £119 at alot of places and a very nice lid. (Image is a Corsa but same design)

Hmm well I used to have preload aftermarket adjusters attached on top. I didn't know what they were so decieed to see how easy they were to come off.

Yanked them off with the original preload adjusters inside and decided to mess around with the suspension set up for the winter season. I thought it looked odd but it didn't stop me. instead of using the spanner to adjust the preload I adjusted the nut for the spring. And it dropped down.

Tried to rectify it but went on at an angle. When it went to that point I thought bloody hell this is now a sfatey problem and I wasn't going to tackle it myself haha!!

Went into Blade yesterday to take a looks at stock. Looks like a lot of people are buying the Fireblades at the moment they are all sold that were in the showroom.

With that Ro you will get a F1ST. Good luck when you come up to the test.
