Tank Slap - Motorcycle Forum

Gave it a wash when I got home. It's not been cleaned for a bit and it's starting to look grubby

I noticed that with the RSV. It's not had a proper clean off over the last 3 or so rides, its well over due.

If it's dry on Sunday morning I might try and get it out for a proper clean off. Hopefully going to get it booked in for a service next month.

what time you dropping it off ?

Quick blast through Germany, Luxemburg, Belgium and hopefully into France for tea so not far from the port tomorrow morning.

Oooo, is that an open offer?

Finally got around to ordering up a new chain and "exciting" gearing for the NC29. Hopefully I'll have time at the weekend to fit the freshly rubbered, newly powder coated wheels and final drive. Not far away now :-)

Fitted some dinky indicators tonight to the rear, and stuck on a reflector, as when I put the tail tidy it got removed

weaved through the motorway traffic until I realised I was now alongside a police range rover. The driver pissed himself laughing then waved me on. Top bloke.

Booked the RSV in for a service next month, also getting the rear suspension suspension sorted at the same time.

Rode it from Belgium to home.

And me.

Yeah I did that too cheers boys it was awesome

Not today but yesterday has to be one of the best and worst biking days of my life.

Rode 462 miles straight across 3 different country's. Rode 12 hours solid only stopping for petrol, red bull and Snicker's.
Only wimps rest their weiry limbs, haha, lol.

Highlight was knee down on the B500 with panniers on

Lowlight was riding the 12th hour dodging potholes at motorway speed in complete darkness whilst trying to read a satnav that had gone all weird colours in night time mode when I'm colour blind and constantly checking if one of the head lights in the darkness behind me was my good mate young Bratty

Perfection and hell all in one day

Bought some handle bar tie downs and a loading ramp...

All I need now is as van, fuel, and a track

Fully repaired the bike to its former glory since the august off at the Ring...omg whoever designed how the rear under tray and nose cone cone off needs to be hung, draw, quartered,shot then burned...anyway job done..like showroom again
