    good thanks, just supercharging the xs but also bought a TDM 850 for a euro jaunt next year. Look forward to see how you progress
  4. should make a movie of your life. At least its not a boring exsistence
  5. its like Switzerland as one of my staff said, which is pretty much what's its like. except there quite a few bikes there
  6. Couldn't decide where to go when I woke up this morning, then I realised that I've not been to Matlock for a while. Went via the 2 most dangerous roads in Britan (read, twisty roads) the Cat and Fiddle and that road into Comberford. lovely day hasd a brew and bacon egg sarnie near the river
  7. I bought some of that sheeting for an 8 x 6 shed roof, cost over £100. Its not cheep said the sparrow.
  8. wehnTommy and I were at Barnsley a few years ago, there was this immaculate suzi Gt, just restrored. he ground his main stand away in 20 mins
  9. I use a really sticky off road one which is clear. I first clean and wipe the chain down, then bob a bit of white paint or tippex on one plate. this is so i don't overoil and waste the product. I then spray inside the chain between the rollers and plates (thats two sides). Its best done after a ride when the chain is warm as it promotes the oil to get inside the links. leave to dry overnight. I still get the spray but you need to get close to see
  10. depends on how far your going to lean? take it off if you like, just make sure the chain is well adjusted beforehand should be a great day especially if it doesn't rain, have fun

    Mine would say "bloody hot" found the stuff here https://www.proto-pic.co.uk/thermochromatic-pigment-black-20g.html?gclid=CM30gMvCtc8CFecp0wodft4D-w it turns transparant when heated, so you paint whatever underneath, put on the thermochomatic top coat to cover.

    I don't ride daily for that very reason. Still mange to do a fair bit of mileage and is a good release from work stress
  13. Henry Cole is fronting this, but its about the motorbikes and McQueen rather than the actor. http://www.radiotimes.com/tv-programme/e/fc7trq/steve-mcqueen-motorcycle-movie-star--series-1-episode-1
  14. no, can't recall. what a maiden voyage to take on an unfammiliar bike. I was moving off the bike whilst it stayed straight.
  15. freebie? nice one

  17. turn the cyl head upside down and pour petrol over the valves. If they are leaking, the fuel will seep through. Are the rings within spec and can you see the hone marks in the cylinder wall?
  18. guys, just to let you know, I'm not organising this, Steve is and he's not on this forum (well he is but doesn't post)
