I'm planning to give the bike a full service, new chain and sprockets, tidy up a couple of bits and a bloody good clean (it needs it!), but apart from that most of my weekend is earmarked for DIY...
I'll probably go out for a run early one morning though.

Should be our last UAE race day of the season. However, visibility is down to 30m and it is predicted to get WORSE tonight.

I predict siting in the pit garage all day tomorrow waiting for the event to be cancelled.

I shall be sticking a few more bits on the ZX10 mainly to sort out the rear caliper, clean all the splattered flies off and just check it over

I will also give the TRX a bit of a clean and a once over.

Heading off to do family stuff, and then on Monday it will be beers and BSB

Fixing my bike, needs a new rear set, gear lever, bar end and screen.

And if I can get someone to drive (not allowed to drive after having collar bone pinned yesterday) to Donington on Monday I'll go to BSB.

What are the other colour options? Surely it's got be that teal colour the E36 came in?


I plan to clear out the garage, so I can make room for a 2nd bike. I have so much junk sitting there, nothing much wrong with a lot of it but will have to be ruthless or end up a hoarder.

Giving the VTR a bloody good service, change of brake fluid, clean calipers, oil and filter change, air and spark plug change, adjustment of the CCT, drivechain, probably won't have time to do any work on the suspensions. I've noticed that the rubber seals are starting to show signs of cracking and will need to be replaced soon. Maybe at the end of the month / May bank holiday.
Oh and a bloody good clean, with S-Doc and ACF-50.
Then there is the RSVR which has been laid up. So a good charge of the battery with the Optimate tonight, followed by lubing up the chain and given it a ride around the block.
That reminds me, i think it's due an MOT soon.

Squeezed in 2 very little rides so far, hopefully tomorrow will give me a good couple of hours in the peak district! Got myself a new lid too on the rainy good Friday just waiting for it to be delivered.

Rode to Box Hill, had a look at the other bikes then had a coffee.
On the way home, the exhaust started blowing, had to tighten the header pipe nuts as they had loosened.
All good again!

Chased a couple of Multistradas and a Futura for a couple of hundred miles around the Yorkshire Dales on Saturday, bloody fantastic. Traffic was light, initially damp roads dried out, used an entire tank of fuel that will normally last three hundred miles, got the pegs down a few times, upset some pompous Mercedes tosser by queue-jumping at a railway crossing, no kittens died and the ozone layer is still there.
Roll on summer biggrin

Went for a ride out with local advanced motorcyclists for most of yesterday.

Local BMW dealer letting me take a S 1000 R for the day. So will be in the saddle most of today too.

Back to reality tomorrow
