Awe that's nice! Claire should be on later, you were worried about her too? She's OK. Still as batty as ever!
I'm worried about all of you when you disappear. Apparently once you've all gone I'll be cured and be released.
I know yeah but it's a stunning piece of machinery which is more than xsn be said for the BMW, its a shame the build quality of the cars hasn't been passed on to it's two wheeled brothers they are tacky as hell I'm testing one as I wanna know what the fuss is about but I couldn't buy one as every time I looked at it I'd wonder where my £14k had gone! RSV4R all day long on build finish alone!
I fitted it as my better half wants to spend a bit more time on the bike with me but its really useful when just moving it around; putting on stands etc. But yes, safe I hope. I was looking at this blade tonight & it has all the boring bits fitted; nothing performance enhancing. Rad guard, crash bobbins, venture shield, Helibars, grabrail... I have had a few tricked up track bikes in recent years so just don't feel inclined to go the same way with this. I just want to enjoy it as a road bike & be 'safe'. God; I have become old fart
Never 1 to put a damper on things mate But have u seen the state of the bare cast ally engine on the RSV4. I seen 1 at the NEC show and thought it looked fantastic until I seen the state of the engine. It put me off that much that I genuinely wouldn't buy 1. That ain't the way it should be. It should atleast be smoothed off and coated.
I fitted the Rentec grab rail to mine too Swiss. It makes it a lot more comfortable for Jeanette as a pillion and much, much safer. Not the prettiest mod, I'll agree but does the job well. The only downside is I had to replace the luggage strap bobbins for the ugly Rentec bolts, but a mate it milling me some new ones in Titanium, eventually.
ASV Levers - Rotator Clamp - SPORTSBIKESHOP Basically, it stops your levers knackering in a drop. Good bit of kit mate.
Took a photo Then took the wheels out, discs and sprocket off ready to give to the sprayer in the morning
