The 2nd gear in my 15 month old ZX10R decided it didn’t like being a 2nd gear anymore, so now isn’t, which is nice.
Booked in in August to diagnose, then hopefully a gearbox rebuild under warranty when the riding season is over.
Fun fun fun.

That sucks, sorry to hear it! Are they not offering you anything to use in the mean time?
 
Painted the bike cave (was previously an outside laundry room) a different colour to cover up the hideous KTM orange that it was previously, just need to get a few posters etc to cheer it up a bit.

Also, hit the mother of all fly herds and just about got my visor down in time, although I'm still picking a few out of my teeth..

Try it with an open face lid, don't forget to smile! :D
I plan to put new tubed tyres on the bike this weekend, during the heatwave, so RIP me I guess. :p
 
We used ride in open faces friend of mine was following a horse box, you know what's coming hehehe he said I thought it started to rain, all the years later I still remind him.
I've still got a rearranged face from headbutting a car while wearing one but meh, still do, nobody lives for ever. I do now have a slow bike though. :D
 
Stil amazed open faced helmets are legal in this world of "safety first" etc... One day they'll come with a few photos of mangled faces highlighting the (lack of) protection they provide similar to the photos they put on fag packets!
 
I remember a time when you didn't even need to wear one. You can wear a £1000 helmet, if your time's up then it's not going to save you.
Wonder when they'll make those inflatable air vest things (with subscription...) compulsory. :p

I agree to a degree but you could argue we may all just aswell ride in nothing but a pair of shorts - if your times up its up!....
