  1. Thanks Rae, the fork oil in the service manual says - Pro Honda Suspension Fluid SS 8. I assume if it's bouncing a bit I would need the suspension harder, I've had a look at setting the sag and seems easy to do with a helping hand but it does recommend putting it back to stock first anyway. Not my image, but when it talks about Pre-Load, Rebound and Compression which bits am I altering for each?
  2. After giving myself a few months to get used to my bike, I feel like I need to adjust the suspension - my first course of action is to set everything back to the factory settings if it isn't already. I'm sure it's pretty simple but can anyone give me a "Beefy-Proof" guide to doing this? Front - Pre-Load Initial - 4th groove from top Rebound - 1 3/4 turns out from fully turned in compression adjuster - 1 1/4 turns out from fully turned in Rear - Spring - Position 3 Rebound adjuster - 1 1/2 turns out from fully turned in compression adjuster - 1 1/2 turns out from fully turned in So what bits do I turn, and will I know what I'm fully turned in to back it off a bit? Currently the bike doesn't feel as planted as I like, bouncy rear end in some corners so I'm hoping adjusting to this will help me. If this doesn't help I'll take it to a guy who sets is up properly for you for around £20.
  3. She would probably say "typical "
  4. I imagine a common theif wouldn't have a clue what the stand is, or how to even get the bike off it
  5. Is your missus ill? I hope she gets well soon mate

  7. You'd be far better off buying one already made for your bike, less hassle and less ££s in the end.

    Chain issue

    Good stuff, now lube it weekly and give a good clean once a month and it'll last you a good while Check the slack after a few miles as the chain will bed in and probably be a bit loose.
  18. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00KAPJF0G/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I use this for the Rally, it fits on the back of the bike nice and easy but wouldn't go into a backpack.

  22. I hope you can make it down [mention]Joeman[/mention] I can show you my big boy bike and you can show me yours spitting flames.
  23. That's really hard to read mate, I'm not a grammar nazi but it really needs a full stop or two or three . As for your issues, I haven't a clue maybe ask for proof they actually rebuilt the engine the first time.
  24. I'll be on the bike any weather , I think [mention]RantMachine[/mention] will be moved/moving to America by then, and not sure what [mention]tsurugi-ijin[/mention] is doing.
  25. For any further posts in this thread, this should be the minimum level of detail. The car and everything, it's just perfect.
