As it looks like it's gonna chuck it down here I'm going to have a go at fitting a HID kit, should be fun. Wait for the 'my bike exploded' post sometime on Sunday.

Off to pick up some new gear tonight (Sidi Crossfires and Rev'it Ceyanne Pro pants (Jacket won't arrive for two weeks frown)).

Working all weekend, but will find time to clean the bike since I put it away caked with mud the other day.

It's my leaving drinks tonight, so not much tomorrow!

Sunday is meant to be my last club rie out up here but right now its blowing a gale and still scary stormy frown

Also think I need new back brake pads, there's an awful grating noise when using it, I just need a volunteer to supervise

I rode in this morning, when did winter suddenly arrive?!
It's chucking it down all weekend, went out last night as my friends were in their drift cars - i was freezing & soaked!
Bikes filthy - (just how i like my women).
So might give it a clean this weekend & keep it in the garage for a bit!

I’m either getting the puncture in my almost new Pilot Road 2 fixed (if they’ll do it) or I’m buying a new rear tyre.

Its only going to rain Sunday though... Saturday is just going to be cloudy.

I'm hopefully going out on the Ducati with a mate on his bandit and then someone maybe coming over later with a view to buy it. smile

Feel for you got to do the same this afternoon except mine was a michelin probably to be replaced by an Avon, then hopefully the weather will hold a bit on saturday so I can get some more miles under my belt

Do it ASAP. That grating noise is probably the backing plate of the pad scraping on the disk, if you damage the disk expect to pay around £100 for a new one
