Re: Stonesie's MT-10 thread

About 4 hours excluding a bit of fine tuning on the shifter sensitivity and pedal height.

Re: Stonesie's MT-10 thread

Yeah I'm over the moon with it, just got to adapt my left foot to that shifter as I can't be lazy with it now. The battery is dead on the phone so I will get the pictures of the power curves uploaded on a bit... I'm not saying it's smoother than before.... But I rode home in B mode in the rain with ...

Re: Stonesie's MT-10 thread

The phone signal is pretty crap here so i can't upload pictures but the lines look pretty smooth, Tony is leaving the throttle maps alone in standard and A then going 1:1 in B so no interference from the ECU just a direct grip to throttle body connection... Should be fun.

Re: Stonesie's MT-10 thread

Parkitt have had problem's with the rolling road but in the middle of last week they got it working, tested and gave me the green light to get it in for the work as I wait, I may video some of it if the exhaust makes some impressive fire. More recently I have fitted a USB power supply with a built i...

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??

Today I replaced the useless power outlet that everything falls out of with an Ebay special USB outlet with a volt meter.. Random pic of someone elses. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170731/3850fe2064513f99dbacdefb4faaf177.jpg It powers the sat-nav just fine and should charge the phone at the sa...

Got to agree, the one on my STR was very nice to use especially above half throttle.

MT-10 SP versus Modded MT-10

Fast Bikes have been playing with their long term test MT so just before they handed it back they linked up with Bike World to see if it is better than the range topping £13,699 SP!

Re: Cookie's Street Triple 765 R

Its in the construction and use regulations i think, i know there is a requirement for part of the 'bodywork' to extend beyond the rear tyre. So we get that in the form of an easily replaceable number plate hanger.

Re: What are you doing today ??

Had the car in for a service and MOT, which it flew through with no advisory's from either, which was nice, as was the 'loaner' that they let me borrow... I have been on the Honda site and to spec one exactly the same is a shade over £40K asking price, no wonder I liked it... Honda CR-V EX 1.6 diese...

Re: What are you doing today ??

Had a ride over to Bridlington with a good friend, found the unicorn cafe and home before the rain. 170 miles of fun at a decent pace, plenty of police about so no sillyness. Got home and tested the impact driver on a car wheel nut, no bother at all. Had to slacken it slightly to torque it to 110nm....

Re: Mr Postman

And today its brother was waiting for me when i got home from work, another eBay find with a damaged box but the tool is perfect. No batteries or anything but i already got those with the drill. 180nm should be enough to replace the heavy windy gun on most diy jobs. http://imageshack.com/a/img922/50...
