Laid it on its side non to gently after being rear ended at some temporary traffic lights. Near side damage.

Rode home after a good check over, then spent an hour on the phone to insurance.

Three vehicles involved so has to go through insurance.

 

Oh man. That's weeks down the drain on the phone and filling out forms. All to get yourself some higher premiums. That truly sucks.

Hopefully all done on the phone.

I stopped, pickup behind stopped but the lorry behind did not. They were company vehicles as well so has to go through insurance.

Fettled the chain. It really is abused under that fulsome cover.

Racing lube only for this one

 

Checked the valves (wer fine)

So accessible

 

Then off to Wales to see the tidy mountains and stunning birds cause I'm not a ****.

I've just got back! Enjoy, I think you've got better weather than I had

[Mawsley]

Bought them some serious security from Pragmasis

[Mickly]

Ride to the Cinderella club & got wet, on the plus side, it dried up & I saw this

 

Waddaya know ... it’s the right way up !!

This is the one at Hoar park right? I'd assumed it was cancelled due to a certain viral event but if it's on I might actually give it a go, I never could before due to being of working age but lovely furlough stops that being an issue!

[SometimesSansEngine]

There was some light surface rust on the odd bolt on my bike when I bought it, so spent a relatively short time with a wire brush and some WD40 sorting it out.

[gymwitch]

Dropped it on the road going round a corner. Dont know why or how it happened but the most important bit is 20 plus scooterists saw it. #feelingblessed

Yep, Hoar Park, it’s been going since lockdown ended (ish)

Dunno if it will continue in light of the latest recommendation on group sizes.

Put this back on ready for saturdaywhen i will hear her sing for the very first time. And i bought a tmf snood for us. Late to the party but here at last.

Winter draws on.... Took the Z500 out today, down to York (Strawberry Fields Cafe) over to Helmsley, then the TT urn to Stoksley and home, 125 miles. New rear suspension working well, will have to soften up the front damping now. Bye bye ATF and hello 5W fork oil.
