I'm about to go kick my R6 over. That new thing is beautful.

Definitely going to have squared off my brand new tyre by the end of the weekend 360 motorway miles

I'll have to treat it to some corners on my day off on Monday

450 bikes at the Southampton meet last night. We even had a guy called James Hillier visit on a H2

Nice, that's the guy that races on TT, I remember when Baron did a review with him.

I mounted the camera on my helmet, the footage is good. But I'm not going to upload the video as I can't be bothered to edit it out and blur out the speedo. :p

A few corners from the road with those signs, I post a picture of one of them couple days ago. :p I'm still working on my body position for left turns, I managed to scrape the left peg today.

That route is a mixture of slow corners like these and fast ones. :p

What camera is that ic3? Do you use the internal mic or external one?

IC3 · 14 Oct 2016 at 19:04

Xiaomi Yi with 35mbps firmware and a few scripts I've made to suit my needs, internal mic and waterproof case.

Don't suppose any of you have a spare u bolt that's included with the tomtom rider for the ram mount?

I do, but it's on my CB400! I'd get one of these instead to mount it, saves damaging your bars - that's what I'll be doing on my Tuono https://www.amazon.co.uk/RAM-1-22-B...b-bd11-4e9e-8c26-9ca0139074ee&pf_rd_i=desktop

Captain · 14 Oct 2016 at 20:53

What's it like for fitment? I don't know where I'd mount it on the Nuda though.

TallPaul_S · 14 Oct 2016 at 21:10

It mounts in place of one of the bar clamp bolts, you'd need to check the size is correct.

You barley lent that bike and already scraping, is that a bonnevile? I can see how that would be fun.

Yeah I don't do it anymore since my boots cost £360...

Craig321 · 14 Oct 2016 at 21:54

Well, I didn't get mugged, ripped off or murdered

. The stranger from the internet invited me into his house and we did the deal.

Finally got forks for my Hornet!

So tomorrow: spark plugs, front brake seals and pads, forks, new battery in (just activated it now with the acid), oil & filter change is done already, then try start it!

All being well, it'll be a usable bike again and I'll get it a nice new stubby exhaust.

Seems to have gone up in price quite a lot, some websites are close to gopro session territory.

WTF I paid 42 quid for mine, now they're like 80 quid. :eek:

Edit: I would look for something else, at this price you can get better.

tom_e, where did you order the clutch cable from? I'm going to replace the clutch and throttle cables.
