@IC3 is still recovering, but I think he is making progress now. I think he had a bit of a fiasco with some nurses in another ward, not actually doing their job properly, and causing more harm than good.
I rode a scooter for the first time (My dad to an MOT). It was the weirdest feeling ever, my legs felt all wrong
Kept feeling for gears when slowing, oh it was a mess. But, it was so easy to ride!
Been absent from here for a little while, what do you ride now?No idea what you are talking about..
Got the rizoma levers, they are immaculate.
One thing that I've noticed though is that they don't look like they adjust much at all? Maybe they'll be different once fitted?
Rizoma stuff is the best. You need the Elisse mirrors on the S1000R next
That looks like a normal amount of adjustment, should be OK unless you have freaky big or freaky small hands

I've been looking at the circuit 744 mirrors, they look good.
Just been to my local bmw dealer, £200 for the 12k mile service, that's oil and filter, air filter, brake fluid change, general maintenance check and any adjustments that are needed, chain adjusting etc..
Air filter - £45
Oil - £38
Oil filter - £8
Brake fluid - £8
The rest in labour and VAT, talk about exploitation
That's the YBR sold, first guy to see it bought it.
Although he did turn up an hour later saying it was smoking and there was a hole in the exhaust he hadn't spotted. ACF50 and a drain hole
That's the good part of my day, checked mine over for it's MOT tomorrow and the horn is dead again
, one of my indicators has died since the other day 
and the pass switch on the lights which I never use has decided to go on strike (fixing that with duct tape over the switch) so I'll need to call and cancel that in the morning and hope I can get new parts and get them fitted then find somewhere to MOT it on Saturday as it runs out on Sunday.

That's good to know, I'll probably still tape it up just in case I get a picky tester!
The only time I use my horn is to check it before the MOT, my last one had died before last years
If I'd taken a breath and not gotten so peed off tonight I could have actually picked everything up and had it sorted for tomorrow rather than ordering online in my defence I'd have had to kit up and made it to Halfords in 15 minutes which would have been pushing it.

Yeah the horn on my CB400 died the morning before the MOT last year, I think the cold killed it.
Searching around it looks as though actual usable capacity is around 15-16L. But 9L? Are you sure?

Positive, it cost me £11.40 odd to fill up, that's just over 9L, it's saying miles to empty, 118!

Horn might be full of water. Mine was. Asked the shop to look at it under warranty, they took it apart and it was full of water. Quick clean out and it works fine now.
It was dribbling rusty water when I tried the adjustment screw but for a fiver I just got another one.
