Fitted a +2 Renthal rear sprocket and a SpeedoHealer to go with it. I also have a -1 front sprocket, but I ain't that brave yet :-D
Day 2, so only spent 20 minutes making small adjustments to clutch lever hights and throttle play.... plus took the pillion grab strap off and buried it deeep in the seat cowl as it was pissing me off how it kept getting in the way (like a mo-fo) Need to figure out what I need to disassemble to get to the rear peg bolts so I can remove them to tidy up the rear. Downloaded the manual and will have a nosey tomorrow
New rear tyre scrubbed in, evotech tail tidy on and smaller plate fitted, chain cleaned and oiled and oil level topped up. GiPro on, Flapper mod done and all ready for a good ride out, Now we just a lincs/east midlands ride out ;-) Simon
done the flapper mod ,fitted a new hi screen repsol made a rad gaurd hope i have enough open area for the air flow to the rad ?
Inspired by your post ive just mad one too, I found some 10mm plywood in shed so broke it into small enough size then screwed wood into radiator. Theres no way Im gettin any fin damage now
Another stunning ride to work today...A bit foggy in places but lovely to see the sun breaking through. It is Going to be another lovely day in paradise, I finish work at 13:00 so I feel the long way home is called for.
Just ordered paddock stand , lust racing stand bobbins , R&G tail tidy , LED indicators front and rear and small number plate to match
I went back to my scottoiler to fit that on, Ive ripped my hands to shreds cutting vacuum hoses and fitting spigot under tank. Only to find out the Honda rear sprocket has an unusual lip (4mm) which will stop the oil from the dual injector reaching the chain. And i reckon the sprocket nuts would hit the injector arms too. So I have used the old style of a one sided feed just because I didnt want the agro of taking it all off again. Im officially pissed off with this thing. It was so easy on me old bike. has any one else fitted one of these to a 2011 model at all? Im gonna post a video on you tube to help others daft enough to bother!
Oh yeah and I just found out whilst I was getting a few more tools from House, lil shits have taken the black cover of the steering head nut. wish I had a feckin shotgun!
Was going to assemble most of the bike since the crash today and somehow I've totally missed that the rear seat rail is totally bent sideways, about 1" to the right. So had to put in an order for a new one At least I got the clutch cover changed, the proverbial silver lining
I have 1 fitted to my bike mate. If I remember tomorrow I'll post up a pic on how it's fitted. I'm sure I bolted it to the underside of the swingarm. I'm using the dual injector and have had no problems in 2 years.
No probs It's really a piece of p**s. I'm sure it bolts on using the bracketry that comes with the kit.
Took MissB out on the FireBlade for the afternoon, she'd not been on the bike all year....she is without doubt the best pillion ever. Then we went to the Odeon to watch Dredd 3D (Awesome film, FUCKING Awesome in fact)....then had a bite to eat and a beer or two and now chilling at home with a bottle of white.
