Im sure he's going to be fine Di,they treated me mum there as well,other than that I think I may have sold my Fiesta so that means a few extra quid towards getting the Z650 finished off

Spudda - it's one of the older pre 955i Tigers, it was bought as my winter hack in 2006 to save my shiny new 675 from getting eaten by the British winter, but as I sold the road Daytona 5 months back (written off already) it's my only road bike at the moment, it's built like a tank ...

OK....this is getting silly.

Hands off the bloke now you Slappers......

I think the £700 was for all or at least most of a complete system, just me getting the wrong end of the stick.
About 4-500 seems the prices I'm getting now for the headers only. I would still like it to be less, but hey-ho.

Not urgent (YET!) as MOT is in June but there is a crack in one of the down pipes on my exhaust system. 1. Is there a means of getting it fixed and if not 2. Anyway of getting a cheaper aftermarket system, as a Triumph one is looking like being about £700+ No problem finding end cans ...

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 ) j/k he's normally steaming ahead and making my think about getting a turbo to keep up.

I love the Ducati one, but that RST number is cool too, nice design.
I'm in the midst of getting new leathers myself...ended up going for custom made, just can't seem to find anything I like or fits me properly off the peg.

What time are you getting there, Frankie?

I would like to be there fairly early for the walk up the hill.

... see how fit etc, well the jeans are great but the bike is brilliant, still using too many revs to get away from lights etc but its just a case of getting on using it, happy days :)

No you don't really, that's just your sensible side trying to justify not getting the Rizoma one's

Before I do I need to cover them with clear protective plastic to stop the covers getting marked by my feet. what, something like a clear shrink wrap ? or something like the venture shield stuff ? just got me thinking when typing ... remember that clear sticky backed ...

I'm going to fit my carbon swingarm covers soon. Before I do I need to cover them with clear protective plastic to stop the covers getting marked by my feet.

Someone (I think it was Blade) previously recommended a company or product.

Any pointers much appreciated.

It can be hard enough getting KTM parts when you're in Europe.

Getting closer to a return!

... the different culture. The people are mostly friendly although difficult to communicate with. My written Chinese is OK, and my speaking is getting better, so maybe one day I'll be able to say I can speak more than one language.

It's getting a little uncomfortable as I keep telling him no and he keeps going out of his way to ask or be in the car park as I'm looking to leave, I don't ...

The reservoirs on the RSV look shite, the lids are well known for getting eaten... I really like the look of those....
