  1. Get yourself to an outdoors store mate, Blacks are pretty good if you have one near you. You can get some really thing ones that pack into something not much more than a bum bag as said.
  2. Been told I have to work that weekend as well, sorry guys

    chain tension

    It's the what you discribe as 'sloppy' movement. The free play so to speak.
  4. Ah thanks cypek! Think I'll be having a ride down on sunday!
  5. Hmm I could do with some trousers but how much protection do you think they will offer? Doesn't say any of it's waterproof either. Same goes for the helmet, though that would have to be to EU standards right?
  6. That's brilliant dan, only had time for a quick look but looks like the indicators will need replacing as the tape dose very slightly obscure the indicator Doesn't seem to have anything on fairing or exhaust though
  7. Given that it's only a 50mph zone half of the way not much of a problem lol 'm only on a restricted licence and to be honest I'm not that fussed about speed, will try post next time I'm going up.
  8. Ok so my MOT is due end of next month so I'm going to be making sure everything is in good working order. There are just a couple of things I'm not sure about and would like advice on. Last June I had a small off and damaged the exhaust, fairing and indicator. The rubber seal on the exhaust has been broken and the metal damaged, there is a very small amount of air that come out of the gap, would I be ok putting some sealant or something on this? Failing that is it possible to get a new seal? I don't want to have to buy a new exhaust but I will if I have to. I think the fairing is ok, it is mainly aesthetics there is no hole in it so I think it will be ok. The indicator case broke and I stuck it together with a little duct tape so it works fine, though I think it would still need replacing? Thanks for reading and any advice given. Fairing Damage Exhaust Damage Indicator
  9. Well I went out today as planned, ended up going to matlock and was rather a good ride, only thing was on the way back the bike made some funny noises Not good!!
  10. Will almost certainly be going out for a ride tomorrow if anyone wants to go for a ride between 1130 and 1630
  11. Turns out chipmunk was only on stage for 3 songs so didn't miss much, though in tune with the thread; Had a lab session today and found out the morning there was a pre-lab exercise to do and the sheet was only put online yesterday, so had to cram that in only to get to the lab and them to say we didn't have to as they had only managed to upload it yesterday. I got it all right tho so shows I can do it so f**k it!
  12. Busters-2009 has these on ebay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SUZUKI-GSX600F-92 ... 4147e6c5b2 looks the same as what * link removed by admin* has for £117 to me. Think I'm going to get mine replaced when I next get paid.
  13. Shit luck mate, good weather is on it's way!! I was meant to be going out to the union tonight, they got chipmunk playing live and then I get a reminder I have a mid-seimester test at 0900 in the morning!! f**k it!!

    Slow puncture

    Guessing you mean this type of plug? "> These aren't the sort a garage would use and personally I wouldn't trust it. I prefer the idea of having something attached inside to make sure the plug doesn't come out
