Well, @JtC, I think your current rugged biker look is a nice improvement over your Chuck Norris look. It will be nice reading your posts now picturing the New You rather than the Chuck You.
Except I wish we'd annexed Cozumel. Especially since our high temps this week are hovering around 106-107 degrees F!
Yep, I have been around some of those places. We rode right past Old Tucson Studios yesterday where many Westerns have been filmed. And I've been to and through Nogales many times over the 29 years I've lived in Tucson. But I've never had anyone pull a knife on me, @JtC! It must be that Chuck Norris look of yours.
That's a new phrase, right there. Brake update... Curiouser and curiouser. No leaks, and working now. Haven't touched it yet... Thinking, change the fluid anyway.
Phoned to order new Hagons yesterday morning and they arrived this afternoon! That is what I call great service. I fitted them and went out for a bimble to Bridgnorth and treated swmbo to fish and chips. The bike feels steadier in the corners and soaks up the bumps better. Happy with my £206 spend.
That's a good point, I've had them degrade inside and make like a one way valve, but never had one balloon. That's well worth looking into. Thanks
Well, as I’d promised I took tracey out for a spin, although a bit reluctant to put all the gear on, thank god for mesh jackets!. I set off around 18:00 and really glad I did, my mate, who is leaving the country to work, I’ve known him since I was 13, finally got back to me and I went round his place. So much cooler out in the country. Sat outside and had a good reminisce and a few cups of tea and an emotional farewell. Great ride around the country lanes of Surrey and Sussex to get there and very enjoyable ride back in the dark!
I have had a set on my Thruxton for several years and really happy with them, just be aware that they can corrode at the inside of the painted parts so make sure you clean the crud off and protect any wheel facing parts
