Does one of you have these to hand (OEM), rather than me trawling the interweb and getting it wrong?! Just had a look at mine and it's almost toothless (I'll post a picture for you to laugh at when it's off)

Interesting, our old quad bike won't work on synth oil either, clutch just slips as if it's not there

Like! How cool are the shorts and flipflops brigade going to look covered in skin grafts and pressure bandages?

^^what he said^^ If "it should pass inspection no problem", why not prove it?

Spot on (means yes!)

It's an Interphone f4mc - I charge it overnight from the mains

I have a Bluetooth headset, and it has proven entirely waterproof. Best money ever, music through it, with satnav overriding it when needed, and calls and texts come through no problem. Battery lasts all day, and my phone lives in my inside pocket. Satnav eats phone battery, but you can route a...

Well, FINALLY got round to fitting this, so: - Neatly packaged, and arrived promptly. All looks good quality and sturdy - Lots of sticky pads included that I haven't found much use for - no mounting screws included. No mounts I can understand, because there are so many different applications...

Looks such fun, only ever done track in the car :)

Bear in mind the op and previous replies are in the states where they use AKI, rather than RON.

There's not much of a friction zone to the clutch, I think it's a leftover from it being the r6 engine. I have the clutch cable adjusted loose, so the biting point isn't at my finger's full reach. You get used to it

Nah, it's a fake: a proper wife-beater needs beer stains, some leftover curry, at least one fag burn and the inimitable stench of failure :)

^^what he said^^, that way you can give it dedicated wiring, with it's own fuse. It's pretty easy to pick up the trigger wire on the dimmed beam relay (in the left rear pod). That way the circuit only works when the engine is running. And from hugely enjoyable experience in the Highlands, buy...

I have these furygan half leathers, plenty warm on cold mornings with underwear, cool enough to use all summer. Furygan Bud Evo Leather Jeans - Black / White - FREE UK DELIVERY disclaimer: I live in Wales, where we have what is euphemistically called a "temperate" climate!

Nice, get some crash bungs to keep it that way, it's all too easy to drop the bike when moving it around!

Congratulations!

Surely not?

Sounds brilliant, so I emailed my comments, I wonder if they'll make it on to the page? What better way to improve your riding than to watch bike crash videos on YouTube while you ride? This is the best thing in rider safety since the invisibility cloak with which all bikes seem to be fitted...

This was my main thought on the "getting home" front - I'd doubt if the tyres have been changed on a 3k mile bike, sounds more like a "bought it, enjoyed it for a season, parked it" kind of bike. Those tyres will downright dangerous. As for the rest of the idea, sounds like utter madness to me...

A stupidly simple thing worth doing is to lube the twist grip and the throttle cables. If they're a bit slack and dry it makes for horrible power delivery (been there!)
