Re: Kwacky's 675 Street Triple
The fly screen does make a difference - I'm not being hit square on the chest by the wind blast now. Fanny! One Rizoma grip fitted. The throttle is sticking open with the other grip and it's pissing me off. I'll have a play and see if I can get ...

2017 Versys 650 Grand Tourer - ongoing review
New bike, new thread. I should be picking it up on Wednesday, all being well. No plans as yet to change what's on there, I'm sure I'll think of stuff when I start using it. Paint protection at the front to deal with stone chips, maybe a rad guard is it's ...

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
Commute in on the triple. It's still bloody freezing despite it being May and yesterday showing some promise. I knew I should have kept my liners in my textiles for a bit longer.

... on eBay for a £300 Arrow 3-1 he bought off me 8 months ago. He reckons it's bent and doesn't fit together. He probably done it himself by not being very good at DIY, it's taken the cünt 3 weeks to get the old exhaust nuts and studs off his old exhaust off. Trying to shame me by saying I should ...

Double demo day
... so you find yourself tittering inside your lid as you realise you've just taken the piss with a silly overtake on the approach to a bend.

I guess I was more productive in April than I was in March...
I'm sure I'm making progress, it's hard to say though with my body fat levels being higher than I care to admit!

Re: Mr Postman
What I found were really good were Rok Straps. They're elasticated rather than being just webbing straps.Monty wrote:Not cheap, 300 quid with the cam straps but they'll out live me. My Kriega rucksack is 11 years old and still looks brand new.
Plus I can fit them in any combination, 10, 20, 30, 40 litres etc

Re: What are you doing today ??
Traffic offences are one of the few instances where the police can actually witness a crime as it's being committed....at that point you can't really blame them for doing what they're there for.... AND...there is a discretionary margin of around 10%...after that well, you've ...
