As some know I collected my RR6 on Thursday, so with the sunny weather turning out Sunday afternoon I had a call from another Blade owner demanding I should see what she's got,,, erm,,, Ok!.... So we headed towards Hawes over the Dales. Overall I'm impressed with the bike very much although I was not pushing to hard [I don't think] New roads new bike sort of thingy. Took a few tools out with me to make a few changes to personalize to my riding style. What struck me most was how good the bike is for engine braking and not much difference between a empty/full tank feed back performance in fact I thought it switched into corners better with a full tank. Overall 10/10 and I didn't ache much this morning. Pic of fly cemetery. Lee
Kinnell! I'd have had to stop and av a clean up way before getting to that state! Top Tip! Keep a pack of these under the pillion seat along with a Microfibre Cloth. Tesco Loves Baby U/Soft Fragrance Free Wipes 64 Pack - Groceries - Tesco Groceries They are ACE for Fly removal and general Bike cleaning.
Nice collection of wild life there Lee. Got a ride out "solitary?" planned for Sunday into Wales if your interested? "in the ride out section" Wasn't sure which weekend you was showing your bike though, but more than welcome if your interested?
Any other sunday and you would come across The Settle Fox ''He owns Hawes'' Glad you like your machine dude and top marks for ''Helmet of the day '' Can this be beaten ?
Cheers, This was after it's 1st clean,also i'm good at looking through the flies. Just consulted the wife and she says yeah can get a mini pack of baby wipes that fit nicely in my man bag. I'm up for the ride on Sunday not showing the RG this weekend. Hey Muffking I'll struggle to find roads without flies they come with most B routes or may I could knock something up in the potting shed. http://farm5.staticflickr.com/4046/4264379428_5ed755d0fd_z.jpg?zz=1
What bikes are you lot on? My son and I walked into Hawes two weeks ago from the west in the rain. A yellow Brogan rep and a red and black 09 (I think that was the year) were coming out of Hawes with an RSV betwen them. Any of the Yorkshire Massive?
Top man! I only clean at the end of the day. I like looking through the flies and see the 'visor kill' as a badge of pride at the end of the day. Love it!
