Started my blade up for the first time in over a week, starred at it whilst it warmed up and just idle`d wishing to go out but due to horrendous weather conditions down here in the far south west could`nt, covered her back up hoping tommorrow is at least dry for a couple hrs- i`m having withdrawl symptons
Simon.....my sympathies..... However.......here oop North it was sunny & dry & no pesky salt So I did exactly same as you & had a right blast Tha needs to move up north lad
Spot on. Got up this morning, roads dry, hmm thinks I. Might go work on me bike. Had a right blast. Unfortunately was slatting down when I left so my man servant had to clean Rosie before I put her back in the garage. Sure is a different life up North
I was gonna nip out late on but got to 4:30 and wsnt worth getting it out so out tmrrw (Sat) pm if anyone north is out for a few hrs around Yorkshire
I`m hoping to go out this morn for a couple hrs Lozzy before another band of potential wet\windy weather moves in to us ere down in CORNWALL. We`ve had it dry down here for a while so it was bound to be wet at some point
But, have you told the Missus the true cost yet Rob...? I had a brew with Kevin yesterday and he was telling tales.... Mind you. He bought the brew which is a first
That was just a small part of it. New one piece, new pants and a new lid prior to that over last 6weeks. And yes they are £60.... i think
So while the weather's been pretty pants here in the southwest, I decided todo a bit of spraying on my black badboy. So colour coded the silver heatshield to black, so it blends in nicely. Done the rear hangers and the faded brake/clutch levers. Think they've turned out alright.
No pics as of yet but i've just fitted PP Tuning rearsets, Accossato QAT, Street hooks and had her MOT'd. In bodyshop now for a couple of touch ups then for a bloody good clean and my Speedangle fitting.
Fitted a non-ABS rear fender to my ABS Blade. Use heat on the fender to soften the plastic and slowly curved the mid-rear section to make sure it clears the ABS hump. I also had to shorten the fender length as it was just clearing the rear tyre after re-shaping, Did 70 miles on Lovely London roads with speed humps everywhere, with no issues with the fender touching the ABS hump. Happy Days
