Re: Advice for buying a bike privately

Very nice bike. I keep getting tempted to buy a 675R even though I thought I'd had enough of sports bikes. But it just looks so good.

Re: Advice for buying a bike privately

Looks like a corker [THUMBS UP SIGN] I'm going to be bike shopping in the coming months and as much as I loved my Daytonas and I love the look of the R's I just don't like the face down, arse up ergonomics of sportsbikes. Good luck to you in your purchase though.

Re: Sprockets

... bought an XW ring chain and 2 years later it's still like new, I don't think there's a single seized link I'll stick with a steel front sprocket though, that must take more abuse that the rear sprocket and it's smaller and sprung mass as opposed to the rear which is unsprung therefore the mass ...

Re: The new improved fitness thread

Legs yesterday.. got a new PB (145kg for 2 reps). I felt absolutely $hagged for the rest of the day though so had to keep eating until I felt better - suprisingly my legs feel pretty great today

Re: What do you want to vent about today?

I've just put them off until last, tbh. Delayed 3 days because they want tickets raising. Mwuauah.

Should be mostly done with the rest tonight. They can wait until Sunday night.

Wicked slice of overtime for this, though. 8)

... roads and track... A bit more top end and more punch midrange would add even more fun. It's more about torque and driveability rather than top end though. I'm looking forward to having a go (in fact I just had to turn several rides of the thruxton down. Bloody baby being born)
