I just can't get it out of my mind......................

Thanks everyone! i know what you're saying about not wanting to use certain bikes through the winter. This bike set me back the grand total of £840 (40 more then my XT did). With 11 months MOT and i think 5 months tax. Also insurance is crazy cheap, £108 third party, fire and theft- at age 21.

OOOPs my bad. lol Thanks for keeping an eye on me Katie What ever you do, DON'T OIL THE BRAKES.

Thought I'd resurrect this thread! Since passing my test in December and getting my new bike just before Christmas I've taken 3 different people out on the bike. Have to say I've thoroughly enjoyed it! And I finally managed to get my missus on the back yesterday, I've been bullying her for a whole about it haha. She was really scared so took her down some friendly roads I know well, stopped at a junction after about 5 miles, asked her if she was ok. Long story short she loved it and had no idea why she was so scared haha, women! Ended up taking her another 20 miles or so and dropping her off to meet some friends. Next step is to get her riding....

Yeah I was going to suggest pouring a small amout of rust treatment. On my pipes I just give them a good WD and wipedown after ever use. Nothing much just bought a special microfibre cloth that I only use for that pipe. It's now caked in oil so I just wipe the pipe with it after use and it keeps it clean and protected. I hear ACF50 is good for this.

works really well but only with doritos apparently
