What did you do to your bike today?

picked up my new seat bolts today. Both of my last ones vibrated themselves loose and when I went to hang off for a roundabout the seat came with me.. which was interesting.
 
Well, getting my 1098S valued in a few hours whilst I test ride a Ducati Multistrada 1200S.

Other than that, not much else to do?
 
go try a triumph explorer as well, don't stick with a specific brand for that style of bike. I have heard that triumph are **** at giving decent prices for trade ins.
 
just had new front tyre fitted (continental) and had a slow puncture plugged in the rear tyre

bought a pair 190/70/17 and 120/70/17 for £135 off fleebay was £149 but had a 10% discount voucher:D
 
Just finished servicing my DL650 and putting new break pads on the honda.

Put the new battery on my dads bike and got that started as well. Very productive afternoon!
 
Tried to set my cam chain tensioner correctly *again*. I've tried like 3 times now :(

It either ends up too loose (extreme clatter at idle) or too loose (whines like crazy at speed). I tried it a slightly different way this time and now it just seems to clatter a tiny bit at idle, so fingers crossed. Too wet and miserable to attempt anything else (I've ridden it of course!)
 
Nice thread. As today is so early, I'll show what I did yesterday, which was play with my new GoPro -


I've used a cheapo Action Cam 3 HD until now and the quality of the GoPro Hero 2 has blown me away. Even the sound is pretty amazing, no wind noise even at... very fast speeds.

Today is a ride with friends into the Cotswolds.
 
Got the bike out for a clean today, Would've been a great day for a ride out. :(
 
Went for a ride, bought some new cleaner and gave the bike a quick hose down and wash.

Its only 6 months old and still needs some TLC, need a bit of T-cut on bits and polishing.
 
Filled it up with petrol, went for a blast with the Mrs to Virginia Waters. Lots of Sunday drivers on the roads.
