Please post here if you rode it to work, cleaned it, dropped it, moved it, neglected it, abused it....etc etc

I ignored it.

Me too. Took it out for a flip round North Wales on Saturday though

I took a lump of sandpaper to the tank.

Watched it get rained on!!

thrashed it!

Is that today as in Monday or today just gone as in Sunday (looking at the time of the post it could be either)
If it's Sunday - nothing, I opted for the clean the house and wash the windows inside and out - dunno why I bothered, it's pishing down now
If it's today - uncovered him, did the school run in the rain trying to avoid all the sh!te thats been washed into the road, and there was plenty of it . Having a quick smoke and a cuppa then I shall ride him to work

Sunday, Nowt, mowed the lawn and then had to go with the g/f's nephews to the local school fair thing (Although they did have trike "rides" for charity, nephews loved it although they werent as good as my bike... ).

Today, got absolutely soaked, it really is diabolical out there. Not helped by people like the MPV I saw this morning doing 80 down the A331 without any lights on. First time I got to test my gear in torrential rain though and discovered its waterproof excpet I must put boots and gloves inside trousers and jacket, not the other way around (My socks are currently sitting on top of my pc trying to dry off.)

sunday, replace fueltap, test fuel flow, test bike starts,

monday, ride to work, leaving early in case bike doesnt wanna go that far... fortunatly it did

Admired her

she even looks good when she's being rained on for 24 hours

Sunday, Igored the VTR and the Zed and sat looking at the CDI from the GPZ whilst calling breaker after breaker after breaker....

Today, rode the VTR to work in the pi$$ing rain.

Rode it to my DAS assessment........Lessons booked and TEST on the 16th.....OH MY GOD!

well


so far nothing................


but will ride her later.......... Rain or sunshine......

Sunday- Took the back brake to bits and cleaned it up, found out WHY the back brake was a bit stiff.... pre-historic crud in the linkage!

THEN went got a quick blat, stopped off at my local for a quicky then failed to make a dignified exit (didn't want to start ), to took the sparky out and gave it a good clean- off I went.

Today- Nothing yet, will be riding to work this afternoon (if it starts) and that's yer lot!

I gave it a good clean, followed by a rinse down using the jetwash at the BP petrol station. Was too busy otherwise to ride it!

Yeah, yesterday I thraped the ol' girl to Donnington and back in the rain. Roads that would have you clenching the seat in the dry. Glad I didn't wash her last night because it was like a river on the A40 this morning.

I got peeped for filtering and cutting in! lol

Yesterday - cleaned it , polished it, tightened chain, admired it, wrapped it up in its cover.

Today - admired covered bike in rain, through window, with its gleaming front wheel just showing, I just wanted to bring it into house, into the dry - but thought better go to work instead

I am now praying for the rain to stop so that I can go for that blast I was hoping to do today

I don't know....ask Ace what he did to her..

I built mine a home.

Got any Pics? TriNode

I looked around on e bay for odds and sods for The 400.

I dreamed of mine.... All I can do at the minute.

However, I have been keeping an eye on Dragonborne's and am buggering about with her ailing disclock, if that counts....

mines stayin in the garage, goin in for new tyres on wednesday! engines makin an annoyin ticking noise so theyre gonna look at that aswell! feckin thing!

Yesterday; cleaned it followed by a pressure wash after I got bored of cleaning, wish I'd just done the pressure wash in the first place, checked chain tension and tyre pressure.

Sunday; hauled it out of the garage (to get Mr Wolfs' surfboard back in) and shoved it back in.

Monday; Rode to work, rode home for lunch, rode back to work, will probably ride home again (the long way since the sun is splitting the heavens here ) and may have to check my tyre pressures at some point too.

hmmm

Long ride saturday - am now far more confident leaning the bike over and cornering at greater speeds

Sunday
- Tightened mirrors and mounts (kept shifting with wind blast)
- went over electrics and bulbs
- checked brakes and oil
- Thought about all the fun we had together on saturday as I sat in the pub and watched the rain

Started her, then remembered the chain needed tightening, sat on her while 'im indoors tightened it. Started her again. Then stood looking at her while 'im indoors perused the choke which isnt working right. Started her again, then went down the road and then went down another road. Then we went down another road and werent too sure where we were, then found a signpost for somewhere we knew. We went down that road and found the somewhere we knew. Went to Sainsburys to get some money to go to the pub and realised I had left my card at home so went home to get the card.
Tomorrow we are going to the place I got losted in to see if he can find his way to where I was meant to be going when I got losted Yes he does have two weeks holiday and we are going to phut around on the bikes as much as possible, only having to get home to get kids from school

Give her a quick clean and once over, put cover back on, then retired to my local hostelry for a refreshing pint

THE PIGEON

Piccies

Sunday nothing, monday rode her to work and back, always a great stress reliever.

Came close to dumping her and me in a hedgerow when I hit a load of gravel on a tight right hander on a back road. Phew!

Also got her a sissybar which I'll fit just in time to strap the tent and stuff on it for the NABD 15 rally on Friday! Woot!

Riding to and from work is the best bit about work, I'm sure you'll all agree

Totally agree plus going home for lunch

Rode to college:

I was about to ride back when i had a nasty surprise! She wouldnt start eletrically - so i kick started and rode home, then proceeded to take off the cover and poke around looking for loose connections (wasnt my battery i checked that) and then i realised:

Id got so used to pulling in the brake when i start her up that i forgot that if you dont - the electric start wont work! (safety for twist n go) Duuuuh

Anyway, i decided to give her a good clean after that - to say sorry, and clean i did, for 1and a half hours - i was getting rid of that stubborn crud and the places that r hard to reach with a jetspray thingy. Up to my elbows in grease and Wd40 but it was worth it, i got a few compliments from random passers by :-)

Was able to ride to and from work today. Got to work at 7:00, and left at 19:30 so had quiet roads. More than made up for the 'mare of a day I had. Bikes = Therepy. Trinode, you are so right!!!

The weather here has been just... amazing!

Blasting around local roads, weaving in and out of traffic, loving absolutely every pot-hole, idiot cager, patch of diesel, 125 riders in shorts, women with extremely short skirts on, hairdressers in their soft-tops (with low-cut tops!), dogs off leads and police.

Lovng everything because I was on my bike, big grin, everyone thinking "what an idiot on a bike with a big grin... why is he grinning?!"

What a great day! dry roads, warm day almost perfect! Also got a new roll-bag for the back of the bike which will fit everything (except clothing) for the NABD weekend! So that's... tent, inflating bed, stool, table, flag pole and support, flags, toiletries (tooth brush), sleeping bag, rubber mallet, extra tent pegs and torches.

2morrow involves installing a power lead for the GPS, a very good wash down and maybe a waterproof ciggie lighter adapter to charge iPod!

I love my bike!
