looking at one for my sv650s but the thing i want to know is.. do i need to put little bobbins on the back as there is a thread where i guess they go and do i new to have both front and back or can i just buy a back one and use it? and are these universal ones any good as suzuki are selling at £90 for the rear! its only so i can park the bike up and tuck it up to the wall at home, not using to takewheels off etc..

just a thought, its a while but give people a early notice of it.. http://www.extremebike.co.uk/index.html just a general meet up with everyone and watch a few bikes go up the drag strip or maybe a few have a go its 8th and 9th october 2011 obviously most people cant say if they will go till closer to the time.. but give everyone an idea

Ive got textile jacket but i havent tried on any leather trousers.. Maybe it will be worth a try!

ive got helmet jackets and boots but im having trouble finding the right pair of trousers! it doing my head in! ive been out today trying out textile trousers and they just seem to restrict my movement and they make you so hot when wearing them! but i still would wanna try more of them as they give you good protection! ive tried kelvar jeans and they seem better as im riding round in jeans at the mo and they are pretty similar its just the padded inserts that seem to make in uncomfortably walking around however i think i will try and get a cheap/used pair of kelvar jeans off ebay or something and try them out as they will be cheaper and will be better for summer i guess and keep looking for textiles that will be better throughout the colder months! plus maybe used ones may fit better as they have been bedded in any advice on buying and what types etc would be much appreciated

Sounds to me like the turbo is overboosting, usually with vac pipes itll be all of the time, is it using any oil by any chance?

ive got 2 visors with pinlock and i think there mint! one has extra high vision so theres no prob at all

yeah good day out, nice to see everyone too

akey, if the weather is ok shall i still meet you at yours for 10?

Weather is looking a bit dodgy for Friday and Saturday now! So if it's raining I'll be watching the wedding to see if it wet wedding dress competition! Fingers crossed for sunny weather though!

there are to many accessories for the bike! what would people recommend as the most useful or the best to buy?

yeah ill be there for then

Do I spray on and wipe off or just leave it? I'll only put on engine bits and bobs anyway I won't use on panels etc..

I've been told that riding bikes on motorways long distance can ruin your tires? Is it true and to what extent? I mean how far on a motorway as I am hoping to go to the seaside soon which will be a 2 hour ride mainly on motorways? Will my tires be knackered after or not? Plus the sv's front tyre looks like it's been on the flat alot as its flat in the middle.. But I don't no how much was motorway etc..

my bad! sorry

just to let people know that a few of us are gonna be down at MFN in Nottingham wednesday night if anyone else is interested we'll be down there for 7:30-8ish

I've done plenty of riding on my old 125 but I'm still getting used this new bike and ive only done 2 group rides and the last one was at the the weekend and I think there great cause I can follow others and learn from them and other people tell you where you go wrong etc..

yep ill be there weather is looking good! 'fingers crossed'

good day out with a load of people off here great bunch of guys and lasses! shame i didnt get any pictures while we was up at ladybower! ill have to go up for some plus it was a nice ride! http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/216290_1805933601435_1632766525_1719140_7823654_n.jpg

Thanks I haven't got a clue so

ive brought some so do i spray small amounts on exposed metal and then wipe it off or do i leave it a while the wipe it and does the bike have to be wet first?
