Back on the bike for the commute. Life is better on 2 wheels

Put a new battery in the ZX10R and ran it. Started first pop. Forgot how sexy it sounds.

Then this arvo had the sale confirmed. Guy drives up from Melbourne later in the month to get it. He was keen to come this weekend but I’m down in Melbourne myself picking up my new camper.

Froze my nuts off this morning. There's still some snow lying about so the bike was a bit twitchy at times.

Was certain after lovely weather yesterday today was the day I get back on 2 wheels, looked out the window, no thanks, its pouring down, cant be bothered with that atm, wish I had though after it took me an hour and a half to do my normal half hour commute thanks to a 7 car pile up on the m25

The bike has sat there for 2 yrs untouched since dirvorcing and becoming a single dad when I’m home. To get to a track day I have to leave here at 5.30am and home by 7-7.30pm. With kids in school that requires a whole lot of favours and the ex isn’t good on them. So it had too go. But another road bike might turn up

Post by **duke63** » 08 Mar 2018, 22:09

That's it. A unimotorcycle.

Group leader on a little ride out this morning down to Middle Wallop.... not planned as such lol.
Visited mum for mothers day, NO FLOWERS ??? where are they, checked my order, they seem to be on for delivery on the 17th wtf!!

Ride home was very wet..... at least I got to test the new jacket in very heavy rain.... It worked very well, bone dry, lovely and warm.

I didn't give the Versys a full wash yesterday, but I did scrub and lube the chain and apply some ACF50 to parts that looked like they needed it.

Then rode it in really heavy rain this morning. Winter might not be over but at least the rain wasn't cold. Small mercies and all that.

Finally managed to ride it to work, sun was out I dropped Travis at nursery and thought, no car today, so turned round and went back home and got the bike out!

Post by **Kwacky** » 13 Mar 2018, 10:43

You picked a good day for it. It's supposed to be dry all day.

Post by **Cavetroll87** » 13 Mar 2018, 10:55

Hope so, considering the last 2 years its been everyday I'm a bit ashamed of myself what with today being the 1st ride of the year haha

I've been riding in the snow.

Left home and it was fine. Got on the motorway and it was blizzard conditions. Arrived at Hinckley and it was ok. Andy started cleaning the bike and the snow started. After an hour he had to give up as ice was forming on the bike. He had to get a blower out to warm up the tyres.

I'm currently at Addison getting a new rear.

Post by **Hondaboy63** » 17 Mar 2018, 15:55

Received my new purchase.
Set up the rear sets and due to loctite i rounded 1 of the bolts. tried easyout no joy. Drilled out and back on track
Placed some decals on the bike.
Changed the rear sprocket from 46 to 45.
Getting ready for Almeria in April.
