OIL CHANGE FREQUENCY

Just had the SP go through it annual MOT and realised it only does approx 500 miles a year. I'm happy to service it annually and enjoy maintaining it in pristine conditions but it occured to me every 500 road miles she gets 50 quids worth of fully synthetic oil and ...

Re: What are you doing today ??

It's clearly that time of year for the kids to be sick. Both of mine have had colds recently. Indeed. Changing seasons and all that. Bit dishearting as this year my roster lined up so I had them for two big chunks of two lots of school ...

I think I do. I want to book more for next year but think I'd stick to the road bike only days as people look after them and are less likely to be d&*ks out on track!!
Precisely the conclusion i came to tbh.

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

I've noticed that the roads are cooler and a bit more greasy now. It's that time of year where you have to start looking out for leaves on the road.

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

There was this 22 year old guy who was on a 300 Ninja...WOW he hammered it around track. So surprised a little 300 could move like that. I followed him for a while and he was very good on the lines and braking points!

Re: What are you doing today ??

Not a fan on the colour scheme myself TBH and seems priced high for a 7 year old standard CBR6 imo.

Not sure if I m way out of touch with prices but hopefully there is some better bargains about than that buddy (y)

Can't see anyone stopping Man City for the title. Wouldn't be surprised if they scored 10 goals against someone in one game this year.

I wonder if anyone at Triumph knows which year it'll be before they've finally run out of those crappy silver coloured levers?

Guess the fine

Alton Towers are in court today for sentencing for the crash last year which left a number of people injured, including 2 amputations.

Their turn over is £500m as a group (They're part of the Merlin Entertainment group)

I'm going for £15m

Have you tried the light smoke visor yet Kwacky?

I took my dark one out last night and fitted the light smoke one. Not ridden in it yet but thought could be a good compromise at this time of year.

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

One of those frustrating rides into work. It's that time of year where sun is directly in my eyes into work and on the way home, which makes it a struggle to see well, despite the sun visor. It also means that drivers are struggling to see and don't want ...
