Tank Slap - Motorcycle Forum

I'll do a Kwacky style report later, when I've decided on a theme

But in brief, it's a fecking weapon.

Better that yours ?

Yep. Faster, sharper, more responsive. The power modes turn it into different bikes. It really is something special. Try one.

Yup. That about covers it

Fell in love with the 10 again and spanked it

£540 for a 4 day trackday at Portimao in November with JHP sounds VERY tempting. Includes everything bar the flights.

Is that on your own bike Duke ?

Yes.

Took the Multi for a spin. Since the throttle and map upgrade its an absolute animal. Had to add some preload to the rear to stop it squatting under hard acceleration.

well id planned on the long route home was gunna be a 90 odd mile ride, but one of the roads was closed so I followed the diversion as wasn't entirely sure on where I was.....30 miles of diversion for a 6 mile long road! did literally a whole tank of fuel, that's my biggest gripe with the MT by far. Fuel consumption is pretty normal but the tank is only 14L so it is flashing at me within about 110 miles.

Took Jane's cbr600rr and cookies 765 R out for a spin.

Rode over to JHP to check out that 749R and spend some money i received for my birthday.

Chatted to Rick, the main technician about the 853 issues. He said to ring next week and arrange for them to pick the bike up and he will do a leakdown test for me to find out the issue. Top service.

Had a nice little blast of around 80 miles today but also another 40mile as a test ride on another bike courtesy of Haslemere Motorcycles near to Loomies! I'll write up a review in the next couple of days! Sneak preview

Came home to an empty house so I spent a bit of time topping up the XCP on a few exposed places.

Getting her serviced today plus a couple of test rides!

I see we've given up on summer and skipped straight to autumn. It was cold and misty this morning.

Dark too.. summer really was early this year

nice and bright down here but cold, wished Id not worn summer gloves, hands were cold which then makes it seize up

Wheeled it out and gave it a wash.

Mine will need a wash after today's ride into work. The roads were wet and covered in crap.
