Sad to say that for a man that destroys bikes, this ones a garage queen. We all have our dark secrets
Well if taken upon myself to strip the engine out. The plan to send away for a refresh. First time I've done this and I'm shitting myself when the engine comes back. The loom looks like a nightmare. Question is does anyone have a simplified loom, and do they cost much. HELP.
Fitted Danny's Brembo Clutch lever.. the Brembo RCS 17 Master cylinder expected Monday / Tuesday along with his HM Dash - such a copy cat Bit of a pain the OEM one only slides of the bar.. meant I needed to remove the heated grip and switchgear.. then re-glue the grip back on once it was off
I'm still waiting for these guys are Racebolt to send me 3 x M3 bolts for my own dash.. real pain but hopefully they were posted friday. So that will be 2 Dash's (my 06) and the SP to do this week! keep me out of trouble I guess haha..
Top boy Kevin, Everyone in the world is a copycat seeing as you have done pretty much everything to your bike! Still not as quick as me though
It was never in a condition to be taken off the road, Just a bit of gravel rash on the fairing and RHS mirror. Seeking replacements for them both just now.
Took my blade to Honda this Saturday for its first service (oil and filter). Cost me about 48 pounds (In Thailand). How much do you guys pay for a first service in the UK? Its going back in next Saturday to get modded to Euro Spec. (New Euro ECU and code keys, velocity stacks and ram air mods). Also booked the bike in to fit the Bazzaz Z-Fi and a dyno tune on the 27th. Anyone know what HP I should expect for a Euro spec bike?
Finished painting the floor of my workshop after work today. The tin said yellow paint, came out more like Repsol orange!
Over the last couple of weeks it goes a bit like this. Braided black Hel brake lines, DID gold chain front and rear renthal sprockets, black titanium sprocket nuts, removed pillion pegs, changed front red mudguard for a black one, set of area 22 rearsets and a pair of shorty levers. Next is a racefit black edition exhaust.
Got the bike MOT'd today, went straight through, the guy was genuinely impressed with how grubby the bike was, asked if I'd been motocrossing on it lol
Bike Cleaner, Indicators and a problem I purchased 2 bottles of Muc-Off bike cleaner for £10.....I was impressed. especially as they cost £7.99 each. cheers J&S Accessories - Motorbike Accessories Also bought some new Micro LED indicators off eBay. They look smart however I'm having indicators issues - see my other thread http://1000rr.co.uk/maintenance/22690.htm
