Clever - one foot on each? Do you get buy one get one free?

I hired a couple of helpers

I wouldn't waste the time riding the bikes then

Been out on ours today together finally after sorting them. Fuel situation slightly better i think, good ride for an hour or two, but very warm here this weekend - high 20's.

Fingers crossed that it gets sorted before Wednesday. Have been looking forward to this trip for months.

Rode it to Addison tyres with kwacky great guys there they look after your bike properly.THen we went the long way home towards Bridgnorth and stopped for a cuppa at quart cafe.Saw a nice H2 in the car park with an aka pipe fitted
Then blasted it home

It was a gentle bimble as I had a new rear tyre on

Considering riding to town to grab my girlfriends ring from the jewelers problem is if I do then I want a chain with me and a disk lock but last time I struggled riding with my chain as it was so bloody heavy! I may drive as its less hassle but it's a lot more expensive as I have to pay for parking haha!!

Took the entire front off to fit a sat nav cable i only removed last year to sell the bike (but didn't).

Why on earth do they make these things so complex to add cables or accessories! Done now mind

Took the rear shock off,its going back for the recall check

Oh how come. Did it come up on the online check ?

Before I put it on last year I checked and it online and it came up with nothing,checked today before I get it on track and it said it could be affected
I just hope I don't have to wait long to have it fixed

Better check mine then

Do you get an option where to take it or does it have to be posted back? Ducati Coventry are Ohlns dealers now I think. They have just built a separate room for suspension work.

Did you put it in as KA040 Perks ?

Not heard back from ohlins yet but I did a search online for local dealers and saw jhp listed
I want it done quickly

I put ka 040 in and my serial number and still says it's ok.

Perks can you ask when you drop it off at JHP why yours was originally ok and then changed and if all KA040 are effected.

Thanks buddy and really hope it's turned round quickly being offroad mid season is not acceptable. Ohlins are a premium product and they shouldn't be costing you preciouss bike time in summer.
