Not the...

    Changing tires myself??

    I was introduced to them on another forum some years ago by a guy that lived near the Kyalami circuit in SA. He had some fast vehicles and was pushing the beads at every opportunity, a few of us bought them and as it is on forums the first problem was blown out of all proportion, that was just...

    Changing tires myself??

    I used them and found they introduced an uncertainty to the bike that was dangerous. I fitted them to my ZRX1200 and did the iron butt 1000 miles in 24 hours thing, I found that they would balance sometimes, but if I set off a bit quick I would get differing degrees of vibration. On one...

    I have had to change it as the noise was just off the scale. I have put the cat back on and cut the Bassani and turned the bottom of it to face he other way to join the cat.

    Where did you ride your FTR today?

    I got to get a quick ride out yesterday, the rain stopped long enough to get out into Derbyshire for a few hours.

    2.8 amp at 12 volts is around 33 watts

    Hello from Derbyshire

    Bugger, turns out the plate place I ordered the S12 plate from didn't own it, it is on an FTR already, the only 12 plate left with the DVLA was N12 so that is what I have. It was £20 cheaper from the Gov and Carole Nash only charged £17.50 to change the insurance.

    Bassani dB killer trial

    In the UK most tracks have a 105db limit, no limit days are few and far. I have a couple of road bikes that wouldn't pass but the FTR with the Bassani is on another level, if you went anywhere near a track with that they would lock the gates and pretend not to be in. I have just spent the...

    Bassani dB killer trial

    Too loud!!! I have had guitar amps that are less efficient than the Bassani.

    Where did you ride your FTR today?

    I nipped out around lunch time to pickup some Allen Keys I won on Ebay about 12 miles away, and 265miles later the bike is now run in and ready for its first oil change. Good fun round north Yorkshire, called in at Whitby for the best fish n chips in the UK and road home in the dark. I don't...
