im thinking at some point im gunna get myself killed, may aswell do it on a slower bike so i can enjoy my death abit longer

nah im only small and think ill only end up dropping something bigger, plus at the moment i have a ramp to get it into my back yard, nothing heavy will get up it with me pushing it.

i gave myself some nasty cramp in my leg when i got my steps dads 125 (size of a 250) off its side stand. so im being realisti. oh and as i like filtering id rather it was abit smaller and nimbler to weave about abit if need be

 

well you cant beat some home made L plates i know there only cheap. but i had all the bits i needed so spent half hour making them up
and yes i know ill probably get pulled for the front on, but meh

 

i didnt think a full size plate on the front would actually have something to hold on to, plus i ran out of plastic sheet and i dont have any white vinyl
looking like i may be buying a house late this year/early next year so not sure when ill be doing the test, but yup cant wait for the moment the Ls go.

also thinking rather than a2 just do the full Direct access, ill jsut have to go to a dealer and see if i can manouver a 600

 

ah cool ta

 

unfortunatly i dont know anyone with anything bigger than a 125, only my step dad with a 125 the size of a 250. was fun getting it off its side stand but once up was okay to ride about on

 

cheers mate, and good night

 

been checking insurance quotes on a 250, and with a years no claims its what im paying this year for the 125. so i think get the test done next year (no rush will do one bit at a time) then move up once i get my first years ncb next august, will give me abit of time to save up

 

indeed.

 

right, back from me hols, first job fit the ignition barrel, once wired up it worked fine cutting the electrics, but had no bearing on the engine. so wired it up to the wiring for my kill switch and it work. so gotta tidy it up and heat shrink it all after dinner so its nice and tidy.

next job, the day before i went on holiday i noticed the bike clicked when i rolled it. think its the chain. and presume its time to change it

 

as a rule ALWAYS change the sprockets the same time as your chain and always make sure the chain is properly tensioned

 

gaffa tape rules


and cheers scootz, ill bear it in mind

 

new development, took it out for the first time since i got back from holiday, indicators stopped working

they were fine for the first 2 turns then once i accelerated they went off and havent worked since
