My memory of leather jeans and jacket is the sweat Does anyone wear theirs when it's cold, like 2-3 degrees kinda cold? I like my textiles, but thinking about wearing leathers for an hours ride tomorrow morning. Cheers

What about giving these guys a call? https://www.classicbikeshop.co.uk/electrical-lighting/headlamp/complete.html

I'm following because I have a similar issue, but I have carbs. The clue I have from this is my temperature gauge not rising, so I'll look into that first.

Awesome! Congratulations on your new ride.

Welcome aboard

Welcome, and good luck Tuesday

Nope. I'll have to Bing it

Good evening Currently leaning on a hay bale, planning an hour out on the bike Sunday morning. Bikes are far more fun, but not as tasty...

Hello and welcome

You're not wrong!! I'll be guzzling WD40 at this rate.

Cheers @RideWithStyles, I will give it more time, see how it goes.

I don't think so. Are these known as "clip ons"?

All the best, hope it's all positive going forward.

Thanks guys, I'll keep at it. I think getting photo's would be tricky, I'll have to make do with shop window reflections.

Brilliant, cheers. Looks like I'll be touring.

@Hoggs So, I'm hoping that, at some point this year it will stop raining, and I'll get out. Which brings me to a simple question.... How long do we get, is it the whole year? Because of work/weather, my rides out are limited to an hour every couple of weeks, more in the summer. Cheers

Many thanks @bonio and @fullscreenaging I'm glad I asked now, especially as I've only recently got back into biking, which of course, makes perfect sense of what you're both saying. Cheers.

My ZZR 1200 came with handle bar risers, and I'm wondering if they're causing the upper back discomfort that I get after an hour or so. I'm thinking they're pushing me back just a little bit more than needed. Anyone else have any similar experience? I appreciate the simple answer is to remove them to see the difference (if any) but just interested in what anyone else has to say. Cheers

Good morning, and Happy New Year.

WTF!!!???

Hi Phil

Is that legal?

A very, very interesting read, and now a great looking bike .

Oh dear, I have carb's, I suppose that's a good reason not to have a winter break.

Nice looking machine, congratulations
