try putting a piece of wood about 1/2 an inch or so thick behind the back wheel then roll the wheel onto the wood, it will go onto the stand easily now. Have to do that on my Sprint coz the arm has broken off the main stand now.
Got the Daytona all back together after balancing the throttle bodies and fixing the intermittently working indicators. All ready to go for an MOT, hopefully tomorrow if I can get a slot.
Well that's it, loaded the Speed Triple R and Su's Street Triple R into a van today and waved goodbye to them :-(
Man, I nearly shed a tear and couldn’t find an appropriate button @darkman. Be watching for next move
Well, about 103 klms out of Halls Creek , Warmun Road house is 60/70 klms east. Which means Kununurra is about 260 klms east of here ! Tomorrow's destination Currently stopped overnighting in 'Leycester' 24hr roadside overnight stop. 4,400 odd klms into our trip , 1,300 or so to go (Darwin) and in the middle of the KIMBERLY I have 4 Bars on my Phone and Internet , sure beats the hell out of my last trip up N. 30 odd yearsy ago , phone services were limited to phone boxes at service stations and not all had them and some worked . Cheers Mick & Brenda capt
Got the Daytona MOTd today, passed with no advisories Unfortunately it also started p@#sing down just before I went to get it done, then stopped just after I got home so all the cleaning I did was a waste of time.
How’s the new shock doing Ron? I take it from your pics that the battery box mod worked ok too and she’s all back together?
Nice weather and 100 miles done sticking to 4000 rpm with some breaks to let engine cool off, will use 4500 rpm on next ride
Lol, price and we both like the black one's, if either of us decide we don't like them later it would be no problem for me to paint them, by the way the finish on both tanks is disappointing :-( but will live with it like all the other cheap looking fittings on the bike when comparing them to our old Speed and Street, whinging aside the motor is great and the bikes ride nice
