Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
Has more time on my hands so fitted the F3MC interphone Bluetooth headsets to both helmets. Just went out for a blast and the sat Nav comes through nice and clear, music streaming works well and I rang home and left a message while doing 100km and it barely sounded like I was on the bike. Mainly got...

Re: 2017 Versys 650 Grand Tourer - ongoing review
I refuse to work it out, I don't even pay much attention to how much fuel I put in it, just try to guess how far I can get between full ups.. The RSV had an eco mode too, it was called off.. (giggle) I'm the same. I was religious with the Daytona and mileage results, but now the Multi is just for f...

Re: What are you doing today ??
Went down to the local supermarket for some groceries yesterday. Getting the trolley and there was an old bloke with a walking stick and really struggling so I pulled him out a trolley from the pile and gave him some room to get going. I spotted no less that 4 people walk straight past him strugglin...

Re: I hope these scumbags are caught
Other than for farmers to travel between their land areas via public road I don't see any need for quads to be allowed on the road. You just can't do it here. Landowners get a restricted registration for specific use only. Not that banning them would stop this lot I'd imagine. What a bunch of tools....

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
Fitted and wired in the Tomtom Rider sat Nav. Made pretty easy with the Multi having a dedicated power supply ready to use. The only gripe is why make both the wire tails black?? Had to look at the wires on the other side of the plug to work out which was the posistive. Just mounted with a ram mount...

Re: What are you doing today ??
I had a crush on those cars when I was younger too. In NZ until the early 90's when Asian imports started to flood in, majority of our cars were British or European imports. In my early 20's I was kicking around with an older lass that had one. After driving it I wasn't as fussed, mainly due to the ...

Re: What do you want to vent about today?
Power companies and estimate meter readings. Don't know how they go about it over yonder but here I get quarterly bills with every second bill being an estimate. Today's bill seemed high, 5 kW extra usage per day, so I looked into it and took my own readings. They under estimated my solar production...

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
Which tyres you had this time? Gone the Angel GT's. 3/4 of all my riding nowadays is touring two up, so these tyres fit the bill. They've still grippy enough to push a bit on my own and I have plenty of confidence in them from the time on them in NZ. Didn't get the scrub in I wanted, to much traffi...

Re: What are you eating ??
Like Blade I've been going easy due to lard arse proportions creeping up on me.
But today despite already having my porridge and fruit I've just had a bacon and egg roll as I'm freezing and sitting outside an industrial area cafe waiting on my bike.

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
Sitting at a cafe while the new tyres get fitted. Rang the guy and ordered them last week and hadn't heard from him. Jess and I are doing a trip away on the weekend so gave him a call this morning. The tyre rep was just pulling out of his driveway so he asked if I could get over straight away. No dr...

Re: 2017 Versys 650 Grand Tourer - ongoing review
I would seriously have a look at a lower screen as sometimes a larger one causes more turbulence. A nice carbon one is the latest de rigour amongst the fashionista I believe. Size isn't everything apparently. Exactly what I found with the Multi. The taller screen caused serious buffeting and made i...

Re: The new improved fitness thread
I broke 80 Kg last break at home. Think it was the week in NZ drinking and eating that did it. Heaviest I've ever been. When I moved out from the ex I was 72 kg. But the lack of stress and being loved up again, coupled with lack of exercise due to the running injury have piled it on me. This whole s...
