Re: Miss Firing Rsv

Same as D6, I just use whatever is nearest when the light comes on. One thing I did notice though. recently I decided to try a tank of super unleaded (which I never normally use) the bike wasn't overly keen. I wouldn't say it ran rough, but it wasn't as smooth as normal. ...

... Mallory with 104? Good work :) the limit was 105 and I dont have a rev counter on the monster so the test was a bit dodgy .They were ok about it though :) I think you were very lucky at that level Perkles as after recent events at the circuit I would have expected them to be really anal regards ...

Chain question.

Re: Hand Guards

I think the wire route through the handle bars to the switch gear, but its hard to tell. Although saying that, the bolt inserts would block it so not sure. The pics show a Triumph Tiger, so it should be compatible with mine.

Re: Karl "Bomber" Harris

... Anstey said it yesterday and you can see McGuinness isn't happy and cannot push it to chase the leaders. The big 'If' in all this is the sponsors though. Let's pray there will be no more fatalities or even crashes this week but were this to happen too often there is no doubt the TT would struggle ...

Re: Engine temps again

... it was a faulty water pump so much as a faulty water pump fitter (giggle) Hub's bike had an overheating problem that he never got to the bottom of though. I'm wondering if the 650 has a different fan? Does yours ever go above 105C?

Re: Squeaky bum time (onboard from snetterton)

... only way I quickly got over it was to think that I controlled the bike, opened it up and squeezed a non existent gap. I do still think about it though.. What I get from your vid is how quick that bike of yours is. Your short shifting in a lot of places and it still goes like stink! Good vid ...

I figured I probably wouldn't either, but free is free. I'd expect my other half would though if I'm on the laptop.

SP Syncrotech QS

Fitted one of these on the track bike yesterday, and having never worked on a blade before found it to be a PITA. When it was all finished though a quite simple bit of kit to install even for me :D very good piece of kit as it is a stand alone item so doesn't need any fuelling mods which obviously ...

... B4364 from Bridgnorth and then looped round back through Cleobury Mortimer and along the B4363 back to Bridgnorth. Great ride down there as always though the road surface on the 4364 is in desperate need of repair in many places.

There's a knack to front squats. I haven't found it yet though! We're just over 2 weeks into Insanity now. Still hard, still covered in sweat after every session but it seems to be paying off. Had a quick measure of my waist and I've lost an inch already. ...

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

Went for a ride, was a lot faster than I intially set out to do, but fun, gave me some time to analyse my riding and try and figure out why I'm so much faster and comfort in left handers that right, think I'm getting there though
