Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
310 miles Stonsie.!!
That's not "a ride out", that's more "an epic journey" imho .!
13hrs in the saddle, I think that would literally kill me. Respect

Made a tail tidy to clear the big underseat cans
Somehow broke my rear indicators
Really gagging to ride this again

Quick blast out on the Triumph this morning before the roads get clogged with retards. What an ace bike it is.

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
Lunch with the family, rode the triumph down there, I have to say the more I ride this bike, the more I am loving it. Obviously dry roads help. I found a mode setting which is "rider setting" which is fun. Set up what you want, how you want.
Only gripe I have, the rider mode defaults back to road when you turn the engine off, if you forget you can't change on the fly.... Also waiting for all the dash to stop fecking around with logo's and whatnot, when you first turn on.
Yep I am enjoying this machine.

And here I am in the Cotswolds....
I was going to buy a pic, but at the prices they want... Nah I will leave it! We could do our own if we wanted, there are enough on here capable of taking at good shot on the move.

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
Tried to book it in at my local
Dealer to look at indicators without success
couldn’t tell me when and how much to test indicators and couldn’t be bothered to call me back disappointed
Anyhow threw old indicators in the bin fitted led performance ones with resistors charged the battery soldered wires and they work beautifully now
Now it’s time to ride

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
Tyres are silly prices. I used to pay £140 fitted for the Daytona.
Even the Versys used to come in under £200.
I can't believe how much they've shot up since the pandemic.

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
It’s becoming an expensive week. Dog at vets this week (nothing serious) £300. Tyres and fitting nearly £400 and jag is in for service (a few hundred hopefully) so that’s probably over a grand in total
