Sahara Sand

So it's not enough we have to deal with the usual crap on the roads plus the winter dusting of salt we've now got our bikes covered in bloody sand?

Any chance of some normal rain followed by lengthy periods of sunshine?

Re: Yes - another one!

Hi Dave

Thanks for signing up.

Nice mix of bikes. I bet the 675 is a dream on the track.

I've been out with Frankie a few times and his Tiger is more than capable (shame about the rider :D) j/k he's normally steaming ahead and making my think about getting a turbo to keep up.

I've been on and around bikes since the days of power cuts, strikes at British Leyland and the ubiquitous Fizzy. I'm currently the owner of a road going Triumph Tiger and a ...

Re: Someone is going to be happy soon

... them are adamant they will be used as intended. There are a few who have Desmosedicis and they get used on track. I can never quite see how bikes are a good investment but i guess its each to their own. Desmosedicis sell for a little less than they cost new 7 years ago.

As Duke mentioned, it stands a good chance that the recovery companies used a stand that would take cruisers and sports bikes ... but the front pivot was close (tmi)

Re: someone wants to take the bike round the car park

I let a mate have a go on one of my old bikes just up and down his street, he almost got taken out by a car reversing off their drive and ended up hammering across 3 gardens trying to avoid it :D it was only an old wrecker of a bike though. my advice would be not to do it.

Re: Protective sticky stuff

I guess you could use sticky back plastic, but it's what the sticky does to the surface it's stuck to that would concern me.

Ventureshield doesn't affect paintwork, which is why I have it on my bikes and cars.

You can buy sheets of it too rather than specific kits. Easy to fit too.
