  1. The same. I did the last one on WiFi
  2. When I’m on my phone the photos that are posted up are not loading as in the pics below. Only a tiny portion is visible.
  3. Finally got my new rear shock on. It came a month ago. I thought I could get away without the remote preload. You know where that got me? I had to send it back and get the remote added. They said the lead time would be 8 weeks! I bit the bullet but it came back in 4. Result. Just got back from testing and it’s much better with the base settings than the OEM. I’ll do a bit of tweaking to see if can get it any better over the next few rides but need to get round to my mates and get the sag set up correctly. I’ve done a guesstimate and don’t think I’m too far off.
  4. I read your post. That’s why I gave you the links only relating to fluid. You need to find out what fluid the guys that did the work put in. My guess is the viscosity is different from the OEM oil that Honda originally put in. Refer to the blend chart I put up as an example. This is the logical explanation if you have put the original springs back. Or like has been said there is too much fluid in.
  5. This gives you an idea of what MBF said https://www.scribd.com/doc/80846501/Motul-Forkoil-Expert-Blend-Chart A comprehensive article about fluid. http://www.peterverdone.com/wiki/index.php?title=Suspension_Fluid
  6. Didn’t know you’d been under the knife. Glad to hear you’re on the mend.
  7. ATGATT for me. I does get bloody hot in the summer months and does get uncomfortable if you get stuck in traffic around towns/city’s, but I’d rather be hot and bothered and keep me skin. I think those that ride in t’s & shorts are f**king idiots, but it’s their choice and their skin. I do get it when it’s hitting 24+ in this country, but I’m not prepared to take the risk.
  8. I think 125’s are a pain in the arse to get into 1st full stop. I only rode a 125 for a day while doing my DAS. I hated it.
  9. Make a note of how much preload you have on and then take it to max soft. The cap shouldn’t ping off when you you undo it. As long as your front wheel is off the floor. If it was me I’d take them off the bike and change the oil at the same time as has been said
  10. That reads like you’re still suffering @bonio
  11. When the majority are in/on EV’s then the price to charge them will increase to in line, or more expensive than it is to fill your vehicle up now.
  12. Bit of a boring one…
  13. I’m going to convert to any EV kicking and screaming!!
  14. I have the original…
  15. I’ve loved every second being on the bike through my riding life. Except when I get caught in extreme unfavourable weather. It then becomes ‘interesting’. Makes you a better rider and also makes you appreciate the nice weather.
  16. I actually think they just didn’t want to be associated with a Harley rider….
  17. I don't follow football, but take an interest on the squad when the Euros and World Cup come round. In that respect I can't really commment on something I know very little about, apart from..... How can Italy's players blatantly make two fouls that deserved a red card and get away with it?
  18. It does sound like the cable to the release mechanism is broken. I have no idea how you would fix it. Possibly see if you can get any panels off to get access? You should be able to get hold of a replacement cable.
  19. These are fake ‘Yamaha’ jackets. Probably made in China. These sort of jackets are sold on Sunday markets up and down the country. It really wouldn’t protect you much in a decent speed off. The armour in them is terrible too.
  20. Only showing race two and three too. I fear it’s the beginning of the end for BSB and WSBK on Eurosport TV.
  21. It could be the speed sensor on its way out. Mine went on my 2002 CBR600F. Cost a bloody fortune to get sorted as I wasn’t confident in doing it myself.
  22. I’ve had the MK2 2017 GT from new and love it. I went through a few bikes over a few years before getting this one. I have no intention of getting rid anytime soon. Not much difference between the MK1 & 2. Couple of tweaks but the main thing is aesthetics. Underneath the cyclops fairing they are pretty much the same bike.
