nope, you put the bike onthe centre stand and either tie the back down or wedge a crate under the down pipes. then remove the brake calipers, then the front wheel, then the mudguard. loosen the pinch bolts on the top & bottom yokes, slide the forks out and put the gaitors on, slide the fork legs back in and re-assemble....easy
One with stabilisers would be more my type.
Welcome sasu, nice bike and tyres, and looking forward to your blog and will follow with interest! Maybe a video for YouTube?Great mods limax2 and thanks Deefer for the fitting info.I've been planning to fit gaitors myself, nice to see them in place. Any link to the particular Gaitors you used?And any further details of how your mud-guard is fitted? Did you have to drill anything or is it fitted to existing mounts? Looks like radiator mound, but is that lower one standard?Thanks, Andy
I wonder if he could get a 130 wheel to fit on the bike? Lining up the chain could be a problem and I imagine it would make the handling quite twitchy but if might be better to have a 130 wheel for the 130 ice tyre rather than a 160 wheel with a 130 tyre on it
Got my first experience on ice today, but no snow expected for at least a week. Ice was a non-event today, still made me ride verrry carefully.
Yep, I am in Finland.No snow expected at least for a week. 0...+4 C temperatures. The only problem is visibility in the darkness with rain on the visor.
Yep, I am in Finland.
