A picture a day... biker banter (Vol 6)

Thats a pisser Birky...especially as you had been going so well and enjoying the racing so much.

Wish you a speedy recovery...If the Maico needs a spin out, you know, just to keep the crank seals nice and fresh, let me know...or maybe not!

Thinking of getting back on track. So an oil and coolant change before I start going over the rest.

No that's the road one. Both have a similar setup. This one is track only and not in road trim.

Forgot to say, get well soon birky.

160 miles around mid Wales today. Mostly dry with just a couple of showers. Brilliant fun.

That’s shaft drive, belt drive is the F800 I had one years ago, a boring but very capable bike.

Had a little ride out on the 954 earlier. It's so much better now with the maxton shock and forks serviced/ktech springs. Can actually feel what the bike is doing and it's not squatting and diving like a seesaw anymore.

Anyone eagle eyed might notice the nose isn't OEM colours, it had some stone chips on the front so I got a fella local to me to put the black and red on to freshen it up a bit.

Slowly getting more "bike fit" so will try and get out for some longer rides.

Suspension upgrades are the best thing ever for the bike IME.

I then helped my son give his RS125 a proper summer clean including the metal polish for the frame

And we then went out for a ride celebrating Italian bikes and the fact they were both running at that moment ...
