Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
Thanks for the feedback though.
My only worry is the length and that it's a short zipper connection. I am worried in really cold weather it'll be drafty.
But I am thinking of getting an over layer for really bad weather to also stop it getting too shitty so might not be an issue.
For the price I thought it looked pretty good.
I will review them all at some point, but I probably wont get them delivered until the end of the week (when someone will be in to receive them) and then I'm on holibobs for a week.

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
I used a thermal lined Weise onesie suit last winter when commuting daily between Stoke and Coventry and it was the dogs bollocks. I looked like a twat, but it was like riding in a diving dry suit. I wore Kevlar jeans and a summer jacket underneath and was toasty warm and bone dry even after 2 hours of REALLY bad rain on the M6.

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
finally found the problem with one cylinder not playing on the cbr600, one inlet and one exhaust shim worn thus not opening the valves enough. pain in the arse but a cheap fix.

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
Cheers Guys
Rossgo. I posted in the ride out thread the change of plans. There was only me and Andy going on the ride out and we both decide what with the good weather forecast at day out at Oulton Park will be more fun
We can do the Derbyshire ride out another time. You fancy it mate ?

It's a fair old ride mate. Unsure if I would be able to do that in a day to be honest Blade.
