  1. Don't forget we all do make mistakes, i'm not defending poor driving or forgetting to shut a boot but we have all at some point gone oh shit, thanks mate to someone who has pointed out or embarassing f**k up!


    but dont let the guy who gave you hand movements put you off, they are in their minority we just like to mention them more then the drivers who "help" us filter! :D

  2. My chain is pretty much sorted now, i swear by muc off with my van and it worked wonders with the chain on the bike. the only hassle i had was geting the back wheel off the ground as i dont have a centre stand... d locks have more then one use it turns out! :D

  3. Cheers guys!


    Well i bought some muck off chain lube last night, cleaned the bike and chain trying to get the most of it off and then applied the lube. seems to be better, as in the back wheel spins alot more freely then before but still looks quite rusty!


    i have a cover uk190 which i have now found as it decided to hide its self away and leave little clues for me to find it again!

  4. i didnt realise a wire brush would damage anything but cheers for the heads up.


    i wouldn't clean it with the engine running as i dont have a centre stand so have to prop it up on a d lock, so wouldn't trust running off the ground just on that!


    i'll pop to halfrauds after work and get the stuff... hate giving them my money, but new area, no clue of any "proper shops"


    cheers though peeps dont want to ruin my pride and joy! :D

  5. i have another small problem with the bike.


    it seems that it doesn't like being left out in the weather without a cover... who'd of guessed eh! :roll:


    Anyway, due to this my chain is a bit of a rust bucket now and I could do with sorting it out. i've tryed lubing it right up but still lookings horrible. before i just go and do it, i was going to scrub it down with a wire brush and then re lube it up again?


    plus my brake discs have gone aswell, i was going to apply the same technique but just want to double check this is ok to do before i go ruining anything!


    Cheers!
