what did you do with your fazer today ?

[esetest]

It is a good route for a quick blast , I was lucky up the Gorge , just the 1 Mercedes which I got past at the bottom then I had the gorge to myself , a left turn at the top of the gorge on the right hand bend then past the rifle range, although road up Dundry hill is shocking at the moment , not so much potholes as crevices

A nice route that esetest - I often use the same one, especially the road through Blagdon (A368?)

Cool we have 2 members of the petrol mower owners club
How do I become a member?
When is the next meet and where will you be mowing out too?

[midden]

Finally put the petrol station jetwash to the test. What a waste of time that was, although I now know Acf50 has superglue properties when it comes to road dirt  :rolleyes

[esetest]

Ordered my new end can from Sp engineering .

[NorthWestern]

Midden, we at the PMF (Petrol Mower Fanciers) accept members who own or aspire to own a petrol powered grass cutter.

We meet often and its always an action packed and lively evening occasionally involving the emergency services...

Got bored and decided to chop the screen down on the gen II. Not sure about the shape (needs squaring off), and the mirrors look even more stupid than before!

Yup they look worserer mate...blanks and bar end mirrors?

Ordered a new titanium scorpion exhaust.




Also went a ride out on it for a few hours. That's me done 300 miles and still not washed it, it's never good! :lol

[bigbluebear]

Did 150 miles yesterday around my TT circuit in glorious Scottish sunshine ending up in Largs....very rare as the sun is out again today....I feel another sickie coming on

[fireblake]

Had a blast to wirk this morning at 5am. Silly me, put that summer kit back in the cupboard. Foccing freezing. At least the ride home will be lovely

[apage16]

Made a video of me spanking it around Snetterton Race Track.


Got rid of my chicken strip and everyfink!


And got a camera angle from pretty much every bit of the bike you can hang a camera from!

Well here's the almost finished product.




Just got to make up some mirror blanks for the fairing, and it's done. I'll have a quick spin out in a bit to see how it is.

[noggythenog]

I dunno about those mirrors stevie.




The lord knows that my sense if style and taste is pretty lacking......but i've fiddled about with mirrors too & it was tricky without seeing them on......personally i think handlebar but not bar end mirrors would look nicest.


I could sell you some nice xt660 mirrors at end of season. :b




But i do like the chopped down & simplified fairing.

[ChristoT]

I, on the other hand, really like it! Reminds me of an old F1 car mirrors.

[stevierst]

The mirrors were remnants off my old R1 streetfighter and I'm a bit on the fence with them. I Erm, bodged them into the end of the bars (you don't want to know).
Currently experimenting with some other round ones I've found buried in my big box of bits.

[Chris]

Looks good, the mirrors do look a little... dated... retro for me but as Christo says they do remind me of the old F1 mirrors which is cool. I just love the move over on your windshield. haha!  :rollin

Fitted the Scorpion Red power Serket Stainless Steel exhaust end can that's been on order for the past 3 or 4 weeks. Worth the wait though !!

Quality, I've got a red power on order as well for my gen 1. Looks well on the gen 2

[noggythenog]

Went a small spin on noggyfighter...she rides mighty fine i must say.


Popped to the garage to ask likelihood of an mot pass....seems likely...no guarantees.


Booked her in for an early mot next tuesday for some peace of mind and find out what the summer holds for me.


Was just gonna have a blast up the hills when i seen a young bloke broke down on his custom chopped 125, a mini outlaw type...bike was well ratty and his front wheel bearing had just disintegrated.....this was 4pm & he had a spare wheel at home and his mate could pick it up for him and fix it but not til tonight.....basically he was focced and pennyless & stumped about getting the wheel as his mate couldnt go all the way to his home with the bike (if his bike was owt to go from then i dread to imagine the state of his mates trailer :rolleyes ).


So anyway being the good foccer i am & thinking about if i was stuck on the side of the road i took him home to get his wheel........an hour of driving through some seriously out in the sticks countryside & he was reunited with his bike but armed with a new wheel and just waiting on his mate.


All part of being a biker...no matter what bike you ride. 8)

Still needed a few miles to scrub in the new tyres and altered the seat as previous riding gave me a numb b**. got the sanding disc out,re-sculpted the seat and went for a bimble to Lancaster and Glasson Dock. SOOOOO much better, can staple cover back on now.Still need night run to test the 400 headlights
