Whats The Last Thing You Bought?

Hi Marco, I have had the Cool Cover on my Multistrada for nearly a year now and it is a really good piece of kit. It adds about 8mm to the seat height (compressed down to 5mm when sat on. It is all day comfortable when riding and allows a good flow of air which helps a lot in the warmer conditions on top of which it drains well in the rain so no more pooling of water around the nether regions.

Thank you! I'll put one on order.

 

My 1992 fxdc custom did the same once it was around 10years old, harley dealership never did get it sorted. I sold the bike at 25years old.Biggest lump of shit i ever owned.ps,if you look close you can see the rag i would stuff into the air intake to catch the oil .

 

I purchased a small table for camping on the bikes, it comes in lots of bits, so actually had to read the instructions to put it together for the first time .

 

This only has the most vague motorcycle connection..... there is a picture of one on this tinplate sign, picked up in a charity shop today!!

A nice addition for the garage wall!!

 

Summer gloves, my old ones disintegrated last week. CE level 1 which is what most gloves seem to be and 20 quid... rude not to

What model are we talking here, Robbi ? Sounds good for the Bonnie soon-ish, in particular, your bit about " .. glue in the wet " !

 

We’re talking about the Bonnie’s early resin prototype. Glue in the wet refers to the quick-set adhesive for the joints keeps things tight while curing. Perfect for your build.

 

Thought id share this with you all looked around for one of these modules and on eBay found a few but had to share this advertised at £150 with £3 postage put in my watch list and next day got an offer for £120 cheapest listing even before discount off a 22 bike with only 6000ish miles on her breaking due to some frame damage

 

Sorry about the quality had to resort to macro to bring down the mbs

 

I just stick to buying fuel, then !

 

Have bought nothing bike related since getting the speed triple, although I could do with some new summer gloves. Mostly this week I’ve been buying cider and naff souvenirs on a camper trip around Somerset, Devon and Cornwall

 

Where's the helmet

 

Have been a big fan of chrome in the far distant past, but not any more and couldn't stand to look at the original chrome knurly clutch cable adjuster on my Speed Twin 900. So when I spotted this titanium bit of bling on ebay I just had to have it (sod the expense).

 

Probably last a lot longer as well without corroding

 

I never lock my bikes.. for years..
But just spent a lot in a new Honda NT1100 DCT, so, as a tour is planned, I saw an offer on Xena XX6 disc lock for a little 36 eur.
Just received it, and have to admit I'm impressed with the bluetooth phone interface and the volume of the alarm (I accidentaly activated while putting the battery on)

 

You've led me astray @TRIPLE X I've always disliked standard clutch cable adjusters (functional but ugly and always cheaply machined). After seeing this I had to add one to my Street Cup. A great little upgrade; being made of Titanium it's 3x the price of the adjuster it replaces, but it's half the weight (~7g (against 15g)) and twice as good looking, also being well machined it works very smoothly.



I can already feel the extra acceleration, top speed and quicker turn in from such a weight saving.

 

I have a chair of a similar design.
Great thing and something to look forward to at the end of the day with a cup of tea or a beer.

 

Exactly, I usually just make my brew or put my beer on the floor, but for the space this takes up, why not?
