Finally got the the calliper bolts off, well the local garage did after several failed attempts and hours of swearing. Fairly sure this front tyre and the brake pads are the originals from 6 years ago, so probably the first time they've been taken off and the treads were bone dry. As ...

I'm not really 100% sure what I did. I know my concentration was wandering a little but I hadn't been off the tarmac at all. I think I went a little wide, tried to bring it back and then...

You missed a good day. I'm sure we'll do it again soon.

Thanks Duke. I've got a US10 and an R35 backpack. I'm sure I've got a magnetic tankbag kicking around as well. I'll take a look at the weekend.

Sure why not.. I will knuckle down and try find a connector that will fit my brake light switch today/tomorrow.

Wherever is easiest for you - can show you the Usk roads and Steel Horse Cafe

Hmmmm...im not 100% sure if I can make it yet, but if I can im flexible on location.

... roads we rode I had to work my bike to the limit of its performance to stay with another bike of greater performance riding at the same pace. Not sure why people don't believe me and it's not worth batting about tbh. I was just trying to make a statement that imo sportsbike development has moved ...

Not sure if it's the baffles or if I'm being more sensible, but the mpg has gone up by a couple of miles over the last week.

I travel East in the mornings and West in the evenings. If I get the sun in my face in the mornings I'm sure to get it in the evening as well. It's pretty blinding for a few weeks of the year.

... insurance which will add 6 to 8 penalty points to your fine. Vehicles that are 3 year or older are require to undertake an MOT. " I'm pretty sure that's a myth. Have a look here http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.php?t=2345553" onclick="window.open(this.href);return ...

I'm not sure tbh Andy.

I always thought if your MOT had ran out you were allowed to ride it to the MOT centre only if you had a prebooked appointment and you rode straight there.

Finished applying the decals
Stuffed up a bit on the sponsor panels. Wet method wasn't ideal for all the intricate pieces and long thin lines. It's under the bike do I'm sure I'll forget about it! Or if not Pitty is likely to still have it on file and I can give it another crack!

Not sure if I can make this, my lad is away at Beaver Camp (steady on, he's only 6!) and my daughter is probably already making plans for the rest of us for the weekend.

If I can make it it'll only be for the morning.

I'll test the water when I get in from work.

... a stand checked the head stock bearings and then took it out for a spin. All fine, the only thing he said was "Those tyres are sh@gged, not sure how you're riding around on them. They're bloody horrible!" May just be a case of they all do that Sir. Certainly a few on here. http://www.zxforums.com/forums/zx-6r-forum/65831-09-zx-6r-mysterious-front-end-clunk.html" ...

Made a lamp for my bar.

I'm sure Deegee will appreciate it

Huh?? Pretty sure it's Slash.

Unless he lied to me.

... mind that the braking system is updated and effectively brand new. Plus you know it wont' need doing again for a long time. I bloody hope not. I'm sure you are right - it needs to be spot on. I've ordered an MC refurb kit. Bike is back under its cover in the garage in disgrace (wasntme)

Hahaha!! That is a shame they didn't bother mate, I'm actually pretty shocked to be honest. You could always pop down to your local one and go for a ride with them which I'm sure they would do for the first session
