Ask the missus to take you out back and give you 50 lashings with that rusty chain for services inappropriate to correct bike maintenance

Looking at those pics, 50 isn't enough.

This probably would be a bad time to mention that I've done worse. The first year coming back from the IoM the bike started lurching really badly when on a flat throttle, accelerating was fine as was decelerating. When I checked out the chain a few days later at least one of the casings had completely failed...

Since then I've been much better at looking after my chain

I would crush you both and your bikes too.

Appalling behaviour

Back on the SX for the commute.

It's easy to forget how deceptively quick that bike is.

Yep.

I'm going to see how bad a dealer part-x would be before advertising the RSV.

Post by **Blade** » 12 Apr 2017, 17:05

Nice one Nutz. Good to hear you secured a quick Sale. Hopefully the dealers are more interested in your buisness than adding you to their rape statistics

Hope you get sorted soon ready to enjoy the season ahead

Put a new fairing set on the track bike. Purchased new Alpha seat unit, and fitted. Changed the oil.
Cleaned and polished, looks mint. Also placed my new Tank slap decals onto the bike.

) Saw his brake lights come on......made my exist

Packed the track bike off to it's new owner.

Replaced the rear master on the RSV, started bleeding the brake and the bleed kit broke
