What did you do to your bike today ??

[Kwacky]

Yeah, it's the same out here. I'm in work but I've used the car, too risky on the bike when some of the roads are white with frost.

We'll get something sorted soon. You rest up and recover.

I've driven back to the south coast from the Midlands today - i've never seen such rain and standing water. Good start to 2017 weather!

Put the traction control back up to full after the back end decided to step out at the first junction I got to this morning.

Electronics must be a God send and come into there own in winter conditions.

It's a nice safety blanket to have on days like today.

[Blade]

Never thought I would be a fan when first arrived on bikes a few years back but have to say I'm a convert now.

I don't trigger it often but as you say nice to know the safety blanket is there just in case.

[Kwacky]

You and me both. I didn't think I would need it but it's certainly saved me from at least one high side.

The old buggers on the z1000sx forum reckon you're a ham fisted rider if you've ever had the TC come on

[duke63]

Probably more to do with them not trying hard enough.

They are a bit limp wristed tell them

I'm being completely honest and the bike does need a clean in those photos she's not at her best there

No way Kwacky you look after your bikes which get used throughout the coldest of winters and they hold up well. There's a fella at TVAM who's bike really is following apart, rust is everywhere, caked in dirt but it still runs and it runs well!! Last time I saw it he said he keeps the engine sweet but he's not too worried about the outside of it because it lives on the road so he doesn't want it nicked I found it quiet amusing!!

Blade you have really done well with that one! Not surprised you are holding onto it definitely need to see it one day!!

[Blade]

Have to have a run out to Aberystwyth in terms fairer weather mate.

[Itchy]

Took it to the garage to get it in for its servicing & MOT and the bits fitted.

Finally.

Tax was due end of last year, so it's cutting things a little fine!

I've had the traction control but in more times than I'm comfortable with on the Multi. It's all good when I'm two up but when I get out by myself I'm getting too carried away. It's usually on the tight corners going up my hill, so a road I'm comfortable with, but it doesn't sit well that I'm riding to the electronics.
