What did you do to your bike today???

So I got around to fitting this today and what a sound!

 

Looks mint mate

 

Oh man, it's such a giddy feeling the first time you hear it.

 

I can see what you mean @Lozzy about the sound, a bit deeper isn’t it?

 

Can’t wait to hear it with the taps open mate, always liked the look of them, and how light?

 

Yes it's lovely

 

Need to go and piss my neighbours off again now @raphael started the bike yesterday. Get a text within minutes from my neighbours 7-8 doors down just saying “noisy f**ker” and that was just at tickover.

 

Mine are in for a treat when I leave at 4am

 

GB Racing bullet sliders.

Yesterday I had both my side fairings off to fit the GB Racing bullet sliders. The fairings were a pain in the arse to re-fit as these race sliders fit inside the fairing to protect the subframe and reduce the bike flipping

Whilst I had the fairings off I gave it a good clean down and re-fitted/ cleaned the engine casing protectors also.

I've had to order some new fairing m6 6mm push/pull rivets and m6 Philip's screw rivets as they were looking quite tired.

 

From the weekend, but not been on much

 

Drug deal going down in the local car park.....or hanging about for abit of business.....

 

not the first time I have been called a drug dealer

and im sure it wont be the last time someone shoves a penis through the drivers window...

 

I couldn't help myself I had too....the original paint was coming off so I rubbed it down and re-applied it

 

Any recommendations to ensure you re-fit fairings properly and tight. Ive got new rivets and clips ready to go for tomorrow. I had a right nightmare getting the nose cone black plastics to sit correctly with the side panels...where's best place to start clipping, screwing first

 

Start at the top and work your way down. Get the air intake positioned into the frame and everything should go smoothly from there. It is fidly and not a rush job so take your time.

 

Yeah that's where I went wrong, I started at the bottom. Thanks Paul

 

Dropped it off the rear paddock stand with no rear wheel fitted. Whoops.

 

Hope there wasn’t too much damage

 

My pride is bruised and my son learnt a lot of new words I hope he doesn't repeat at school.
