Monty, I don't think mine was ever designed to be waterproof. It doesn't look like it. I've certainly come home enough times with a bag full of water.

I know about the liners but that doesn't stop the water getting in and the front pouch getting soaked. The Overboard stuff is roll top and very good.

Hehe....ANYWAAAY...there was defo a guy who tried it,....I remember him getting flagged for it because of vision & safety concerns...and after trying it I can see why...or rather, I couldn't see, and that was the point...no wonder that fecker in the movie ...

Oh she's so getting it tonight! (whether she wants it or not)

Tonight.....not a lot
Sat....getting dragged round the shops most probably
Sun....hopefully give the 999 a good ride out before I take the mirrors and tail lights etc off before it goes to Spain in two weeks.

I can tell you 1st hand Kawasaki as a company is thriving ,bikes sales for them are massively up and they are getting new dealership contracts weekly
They have some very exciting new bikes inthe pipeline,ground breaking even so watch this space

Tomorrow I'm sorting out eldest sons new indicators on his CBR600FS2, the bike he's adamant he was going to sell, but after getting it ready for MOT now doesn't want to. :D Sunday, I'm sorting out the curtain rail in Mini Gee's room that's hanging off the wall (it fell off on its own ...

Tonight I have a 60th Birthday party to attend
Saturday family meal out with my Dad ,hes getting on a bit I need to spend as much time with him as possible now.I feel very guilty when I dont see him
Sunday household chores and if the weather holds out an hour or two othe bike at some point

Trying to find out where one of my experts has disappeared to. The buggers have a habit of getting caught up in something else just when you need them to finish something for you.

I wa taking the piss about the german ones. I've seen a few European sellers buy Chinese stock and then sell it on. People obviously think they're getting better European products. I might see if I can find some footpegs for the ones I've got and see if that works. I've nothing to lose. http://www.sesraceproducts.com/footpeg--milled-knurl---8mm-thread--fp8h-167-p.asp" ...

... in terms of manufacture year so can't offer advice on that sadly. If I had £9k cash and was looking at one of those, I would strongly consider getting a small loan (or 0% credit card) to get the 2016 ZX10R as it's on sale for around £13k with an Akra pipe

I spent all day yesterday chasing a four year old around Cannock chase then went to taekwondo,all day today chasing a four year old around Warwick castle.I feel like I've pulled every muscle in my legs ,even my butt cheeks are aching.
I'm getting old and it hurts a lot

I'm actually wondering if it's safe for me to visit this forum. ?
You hear about all these computer viruses & stuff, & I really don't want to be getting sick at my age.

Fitted a CF rear hugger tonight, what a PITA !! Had to pack it with spacers etc to stip it catching the rear wheel, but at least that's it, nothing more getting done to it this year.

Are we sure we're not just getting old like Duke?

Thanks for the responses.. The bike is green but with the track fairings they'd be white. I considered getting the colour gel resin fairings for an extra £80 and not painting them but if I could get the vinyl sheet cheap enough I was going to try that. https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/50/01/3f/50013f4342a6c9688dcde99dec947ab7.jpg ...

... dizzy after one set of stairs, which is a pain as my job involves a lot of climbing ladders and working at height, hence I'm unfit for work and getting stir crazy. I also found out I had low blood pressure due to mismanagement of my regular meds, which means blood tests and more pills....

... so lost their touch as you say. My particular gripe today is Mini Gee thinking it's ok to go out looking like a tramp. It's like pulling teeth getting him in the shower at the moment. It can't last, in a couple of years he'll be in there more than in his bedroom. Yup, I've put up with the restrictive ...

... spread. I must admit by the tome I had finished the bike I rechecked the first bit I did and it was already creeping!! Think this stuff takes some getting used to in all honesty as the company say 'a little bit of ACF50 goes a long way'!! One part I forgot to do was the battery area (under the ...

... false; (nod) It most certainly is.. But why.?? Why is the (1000 so cheap , or the 600 so expensive). When you look at what you are getting for your money....... :^
