Was your day better than mine?
Only about 6 months. It was a genuine Suzuki filter as well. I hope you had better luck Blackhat. Yep. 21 miles and it still had one litre left in it (one and a half litres on the bike and road). The oil light didn't come on either.

A bag of chips on the sea front is winning so far. I could murder a bag now. At least I got home a little early, cleaned the bike, adjusted and lubed the chain and pumped the tyres up. This stuff is the dogs

Parts Source
I tend to use Powersportsplus.com In America but still cheaper with the postage and sometimes customs charges than here (UK). Even better if the box arrives with no charges. Not sure if they do your bike though!.

Was your day better than mine?
Rode to work this morning. I could smell oil burning and the gearbox felt clunky. Parked the bike and saw this Realising I didn't own a Triumph I gave the bike a quick once over. Oil everywhere including the rear tyre; This is not good I thought so after a cuppa and a ciggie I had a closer look. It looked like the oil filter had corroded and been holed by a stone. I called those nice people at green flag (I get basic cover with my Nat West account). They sent a vehicle to take my bike to the bike doctors. Off we went to HBC motorcycles where the kind men fitted a new filter and put some oil in the bike. They even cleaned the rear tyre as best as they could. All while I waited. While I was there I saw this Anyway, was your day better than mine?

the taste of fuel!
I haven't siphoned any recently but I would swear I could still taste the last lot I did. Does it still tingle on the lips?

Best way to charge a smartphone on a bike?
My method would use: an Optimate/Accumate TM 71 (connected to the battery) an Optimate/Accumate TM 68 (connected to the TM 71) Then a car cigarette adapter for the phone. I have a an iphone at the moment so one of these I can use it in the car or on the bike. It all tucks under the seat. For the satnav I leave it under the rear seat and then run the car type satnav cable from the seat to the yolk and use a RAM mount to mount the satnav. Like this I do have one of those USB connectors in the car as they come with lots of different sockets which can charge other things but have only used the tomtom and iphone car leads on the bike.

Best way to charge a smartphone on a bike?
I have an Optimate charger which comes with leads that permanently connect to the battery. I then use a cigarette lighter adapter on this. I can then plug a car phone charger or connect a satnav cable to it. It makes it flexible. So An Optimate/Accumate TM 71 and an Optimate/Accumate TM 68 LINKY

How much would you pay for......
I say the value would not be too far short of a grand. Not sure what to offer. How bad do you want it?
