Re: What are you doing today ??

... ones I had ordered were wrong, I mis measured the inner diameter so made some bushings out of cable ties to fix that. Then cleaned and lubed the bikes chain. Anyone thinking, Dogbones on a garden chair??? It looks identical to this one. https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0529/0026/6166/products/81eRq9odTaL._AC_SL1500_1445x.jpg?v=1646845973

Sprint Races?

There's an exceptional press conference tomorrow. The gossip is that MotoGP will have sprint races.

I'm all for it. Bikes are made for this sort of race.

Re: New bike sales

;( I’m going to put the 748 up for sale next week to see if anyone bites. A few people on the MV forum have put their bikes up for sale and are getting no interest. I did ask the Superbike Factory for a quote but they've not replied. i reckon people are already starting to think ...

... EDF for short. It helps having no TV licence, no road tax and n MOTs for bike too. Sorry about that guys but judging by the amount of Brit plated bikes here you all love it too.

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

... by the back wheel when they brought it back from the crash? Good call, that does seem plausible. However surely they must be trained to restrain bikes without that sort of additional damage? -If not, there's going to be a lot of unhappy customers.

... with Frankie and Perkles to Whaddon MX track with the camera, I got invited back and I have to say I'm quite enjoying the challange of capturing bikes. It's certainly not as easy as Jack makes it look from his shots ! I thought I'd share a couple of favourite shots with you, because I can :) ...

Re: Back on a Kwak

I've taken the grab handles off the bike. I'm going to see if I can paint them and put a coating on. The paint shouldn't come off after one weekend away but there's a few complaints from owners of the newer bikes about thin paint.

Re: MV adventure bike

So did I.
I just read an article that seemed to say that MV designed the motor & QJ Motors were building it.
But the article was bouncing between the two bikes (9.5 & 5.5) and I may well have misread it.

And now I can't find it again. Grrrr!

... Giving it the beans everywhere just to get some traction. Yep the dust was a little heavy lol... ok if you were on your own, but in a bunch of bikes, you just had to guess where you were lol... so not too good.
