Not the bike but cleaned the lid which I kept saying I would do over winter and putting off. I was disgusted with the colour of the water!
Sorted out camera mounting points for my Drift and Go Pro ready for TT. About 102 hours till we leave Monday morning. Not that I'm counting
Went to loomies last night and met up with @lambchops and @Womblewizard and then went for a blast and was shown a lovely little road with fresh tarmac nicknamed little Switzerland! Also got to use the sena headset in group intercom mode which was good, very clear and good fun being able to chat as a group, looking forward to the meet up Sunday now at dobles
R&G Tail tidy tonight. I now know why there are not many for sale second hand. I ain't messing taking that back off. Love the LED rear no plate lamp
Not today but......First ride of the season! I rode the bike to work over the last few days. Don't you just love that moment when you anchor up for a set of late changing lights and then realise you haven't completely burnt the surface rust of the discs yet, and stop a bike length over the stop line!! Pin sharp now though haha
Sigma slipper fitted, carried out static test and works fine. Hopefully back on the road this weekend
Just two things to look out for. 1. If you take the cage off the back plate to check the ball bearings are in position, mark both parts with a felt tip. They only line up one way. 2. The stack changes slightly when you put it back After installing the sigma parts, check the instructions provided for your particular model. Other than that follow the destructions and you should be ok. Good luck
Well another busy day on the bike! I fitted the titanium swingarm axle and nut, put the underslung brembo on and bled the brake! Not fully happy with the spongy feeling but will leave over night to see if it helps clear any air that might still be in the line.
It's worse on a track day when you've just changed your tyres, only to forget to pump the brake lever before setting off towards the first bend at the end of the track's longest straight
Fitted a side stand on the track bike, as it makes it a lot easier if you are on your own on a TD, fitted the temporary AR can till I get back off hols so it's ready for Silverstone on the 16th.
