Tested my Christmas quick shifter. Total non-event. Slightest stutter and the new gear slips in. Even first to second which was 'nah chance mate' last time I had one.
My brother had one. Great bikes, plenty torque and very nimble in corners. Never gave him any problems.
You need to be careful @nigelrb, you’ll be keeping it soon and a bigger house/garage will be on your to buy list
Got a battery, got the wrong f’ing one! So got to go back tomorrow fml. Got the original exhaust off, exhaust clamp was properly fucked so good time to change, can anyone send a link to Halfords of the right exhaust clamp for me please? thank you
got sorted this morning, back to Halfords to get the right battery - got there for 9:10 and they didn’t open till 10! Ffs. Then went to a local bike repair place - only one local to me that was open. Took the racefit with me. If I had actually got it out I would have realised it’s a slip on - no clamp fml! Bought a new clamp anyway for when/if I put the original one back on. What a day! I’ve confirmed I’m an idiot
There wasn’t any, but me being me didn’t even get the pipe out the bubble wrap to check until trying to get the right size clamp. What an idiot still got a new clamp for the original when I’m fed up with being a hooligan!
As an incentive for the dawdly tourists and old codgers not to impede my first ride of 2020 ...I have removed ze baffle so we can sing the song of our people all around the Peak District Have a good one guys if you're out as well...dry roads and lovely day here
Ride safe girl I really should try my one with the baffle in just to see the difference. I got it in a box when I got the bike and I’ve never had it in
Started to fit the racefit quickly this morning. All going well until trying to get the burnt on remnants of the original off! almost there
The difference is with this can, that riding with baffle out and my earplugs in makes it as loud as riding with baffle in but no earplugs. Love the sound with it out but when you ride nearly every day in the summer it loses its magic and you slowly go deaf lol Great to see everyone's heads turning again as I rumbled thru the villages and it sounds so epic when you open it up Been out an hour now & I've just stopped for a warm up & not seen 1 bike Where is everyone
You're right today is a good day to get out but spent last night not well otherwise would of gone out however needed some fresh air so rolled everything out the garage .swepted the floor and cleaned everything - took cover off sp and gave it a speed polish ....can't wait to get out....service plan runs out sept 2020 so will be season on this one may even keep year after as will be all .up together....
OMG it’s on. Took an hour and a bit tonight. Getting the flange all cleaned up with my trusty dremel then getting it all lined up. Not sure on the infill panel, got it as best as I could. It is slightly touching the exhaust though?
