Bit of cutting and made the bleed kit work like a posh jamjar. Rear brake all good now.

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
Yesterday end out for a potter about with a couple of mates to H Cafe.
On the way there we spotted a copper car we all noticed it was empty....as we past me and my mate noticed him jump out of the bushes...what is is with coppers that's surely entrapment, no signs showing he was speed trapping or anything.
Other than that a lovely ride out bit cold but a ride that was needed

Took one out for a quick blast this morning, giggled like a moron, left a deposit so it's mine...
If plans go well I should be collecting one evening this week after work
Price negotiated down enough to cover a new set of tyres and a tail tidy. The guy also threw in a pillion seat cover and, get this, an abba stand complete with adapter for the 990

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
Took the train from London to cheam, and got picked up by the seller of the KTM.
Signed the paperwork, paid the road tax and said goodbye.
Slapped a tank of super in it and rode it for a bit, then got off the main roads and realised it's a little bit naughty. Then the new fuel got through, cleaned the engine out a bit and I realised it's very naughty.
Turns out a 911 GT3 turbo is rather rapid as I followed him down a dual carriage way on full chat

Found the first mod needed for the bike... A new fecking gate as the bike won't fit through the current one with out undoing the mirrors...

Rizoma. Rizoma. Rizoma. Bar end mirrors and cheaper than a new gate.
Glad you are enjoying the new bike.

Checked it worked and drooled over it.
Got to move it next week and that 4 mile ride will probably be my total mileage until at least late June

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
Gave it some stick on the way home. I didn't leave work until quarter to 8 so I was pissed off and the roads were empty.
Had a race with a very trick hot hatch A little Yaris that was incredibly quick. Looked like it weighed feck all.
