Tank Slap - Motorcycle Forum

You've reminded me.. I'll need new wipers this month. 5 years nearly of ownership and still got the same wipers. The drivers side is damaged and leaves water unaffected in a thin strip that crosses my eyeline. Very annoying.

Hydro spray bottle and two bottles of snow foam...

Let us know how you get on with the HydroUK stuff, they work out of a unit a few doors down from my Son's gymnastics class and I've been thinking of paying a visit.

Will do mate, not had a chance for a proper use of it yet...

Well I have used it twice now, second time correctly, basically you need to use the bottle in order. Handy having the pump up bottle. I think like most washes, it would work better when you are on top of the cleaning, rather than waiting until its mega dirty.

Some car washing stuff, citrus pre wash and wheel cleaner.

A USB power socket for the Ducati. Except I wired it in and it doesn’t work. Hard wired to the battery and still didn’t work. Waste of an afternoon

Bit late to the pass, but fwiw I have always used OEM chains on my stihl chainsaws (on the grounds that, a very long time ago a professional tree surgeon told me they worked out cheaper in the long run because they lasted better).
However last year I was taking down a tree at the front of my place when the chain on my little saw broke. A farmer (neighbour but 2x) was driving his tractor under me when it happened. He stopped, we chatted & he pointed out that he had exactly the same chainsaw. He also said that he'd just brought a pair of new chains from Amazon, for less than 1x from our local dealership. We agreed that he'd give me the unused one, and I'd place an order the same & reimburse his when it arrived.
The chain he presented me with was an ARCHER. I was a little miffed, I'd never even heard of them.
Cheap as chips, and seems (so far) to keep it's edge far better than the Stihl ones ever did.

I'll try them. I've been using Oregan but they dont seem to stay very sharp for long. I do sharpen them myself, but they seem a little soft.

I need a new one soon so will try that

The only modification the new bike will be getting for a while.

A gift from the NHS. They want my poo on a stick.

A letter from BMW, if my engine revs over 12500 rpm the oil filter could unscrew itself... Cheap Brazilian made mahle filters.

I will check if it's got one of those and if it has the replacement is free at the dealership. I wonder if they will change the oil too.

The cynic in me says that the money they make selling you the new oil will cover their costs for changing the filter.?
