Can I find one withing a reasonable distance to test ride from a dealer....not a forking chance!

At this rate Ill just buy a Blade or R1 for peice of mind as those are ten a penny to check out!

Nothing to add here just mild frustration on my part. :-(

With them having known injection and gearbox issues I really need to ride one to see how bad it is especially as I do ride most of the year and in the rain.

After a black LCD/LED TV 32/37 its only for my home office so not after anything flash just something that works anyone selling on a TV?

Howdy all

Someone I work with has a Honda Fireblade on an 07 plate he is considering selling on. Its an EU spec bike he had while in Oman but due to getting older he has barely ridden it. We are talking 600 miles here!

He's a decent chap so don't doubt the bike is legit but he is no mechanic. Bike has been stood for nearly 4 years collecting dust in his Garage.

I am sorely tempted as its a good price.

What should I look out for, guessing dodgy fuel and clogged injectors must be an obvious issue plus likely new battery but what else should I check?

Thanks Lewis

So I am no longer having to commute into work on the bike and am bored of the 636 even if it has been faultless for the last 2 years.

I have always had a soft spot for these KTMs and at 6ft 3 with the legs from a giraffe they have been one of the more comfy bikes I've sat on. I'm going to book a test ride but wanted to ask if anyone has owned one and what they thought?

Hi All

I have had a bunch of 7R parts hanging around for years and I'm moving house soon so they gotta go.

I have a whole Box full of parts and Although I am sure If I split them into separate Ebay auctions there is probably a couple of hundred quids worth there quite frankly I have bigger fish to Fry.

So one box, one price. £50 Buyer collects from Portsmouth or Guildford

I laid out the parts yesterday and took some photos which I will add later but off the top of my head parts include:-

Clear Screen
Junction Box
Complete Wiring Loom
Sidestand
Carbon Yoke Cover
Front n rear Axles
Original Brake Lines
Rear Sprockit (Original size)
Assorted Radiator pipework
Clutch lines
Sprockit cover plate
Indicators
Ignition leads
Scotoiler
Suspension Links
Probably a few other bits too.

So who's interested?

Thanks Lewis

I have Virgin package but only a L package which didn't have BT Sport.

I just rung them and they have a deal for the Essential Family Package. I just paid an extra 1.50 per month got upgraded to the XL TV package which includes BT Sport and upgraded to 50mb broadband!

Well worth giving them a ring if you are already a Virgin customer. 

Just had my upgrade so the old phone is up for grabs.

I cracked the screen a couple of months back and had it repaired through my insurance so condition is spot on.

Its locked to Vodafone but like all phones easily unlocked. Been on Evil bay to check prices and looking for £120 Ninjas price including postage.

Will add pictures later but its essentially as you see on the net, also includes a spare battery, charger, box, instructions and covers

Thanks Lewis

So I have a 3 week old copy of GTA V that I haven't really fallen in love with any takers?

25 quid posted

So.....

Think next year may include a few more trackdays after I finally popped my trackday cherry at Snetterton. 

I had a great day but didnt push very hard as I was to worried about crashing the bike. Having a situation where that is less of a concern would certainly help matters.

Cant decide whether to buy a designated trackbike or get some track plastics for the next roadbike and buy a roadbike which isnt to bad to change over and back.

Decisions Decisions....wont be for a few months yet but all inputs welcome :-)

So doing an oil change and I have managed to lose the sump nut n washer

I am not saying how!

So quickest way to get one considering I have a trackday booked for Tuesday next week! 

Howdy all

Wanted to get people opinion on these, specifically as I am heading for my first track day next week.

My questions is.... I am interested as they will help brace against braking which is the appeal but do they get in the way when transferring across the bike. I tend to have quite a mobile riding style so move around a lot, apparenty according to a riding budy its like a giraffe riding a mini moto cheeky fucker. So what do people think?

Finally popping my trackday cherry iN September 

Its getting a service and new boots next week but anything else worth checking?

I am thinking of new brake pads and braided lines too as the brakes are the weakest point on the bike (2002 ZX6 A1P)

Much Love
Lewis
