Maybe you'll get a chance to clean it at the same time as fixing it?  :D It's starting to look a bit like mine ;)

Unlucky dude, hope your legs gets better quickly and the clutch problems aren't anything serious.  If there's anything I can help with drop me a pm, I'm round your area every few days.

i had on off tonight..... :o i was lucky......happily i am fine as i was kitted up(right knee light grazing a little scuff on left hand) and FOC.ME.CO.UK..the bike isnt' THAT bad....piccys to follow


Glad you're okay dude.  Thankfully it looks as if the damage was aesthetic and whilst I have sympathy for the bike you were never any oil painting ;-).


Get well soon Pete m8.

Sorry.  I'm not allowed to play that.  My mental age is barely 10, never mind 12.  I can't believe some stoopid cager made you dump your beauty.   Gutted.  I hope she is back to pristine soon as.  Better to dump than end up embedded in their rear end.  Also a relief the road was clear where you came off.  As good an off as you can hope for.

Hey Pete, that's normal. Deefer says so  ;)

Hope your bike ran okay on your way home.

Probably because your back brake was binding and your chain was rusty where you've done no service work on your bike.  :lol

I should prob put my lengthy off thread on here.


I learned a few lessons that day & doing the off diary helped me get back on it & understand what went wrong.
