What did you do to your bike today?

Good choice on the tyres. Will be getting another set of them for mine this week if I get round to whipping off the wheels. Best all round road tyre I have used.

Just seem to ride it these days, put petrol in it, check it over & ride it some more. S'pose that's part of owning/running a VFR, There's nowt that needs doing just things that you choose to do just for the sake of it.

First chance to test the new stompgrips in anger. Nice ride over snake pass then came back over the cat and fiddle. Great weather and had a blast. Can't recommend the stompgrips enough. Just feel so much more in control under braking and cornering. Even on straights taking it easy you can take the weight off your wrists so much easier.

Almost dropped it

Where my knees are on the bike i'm generally touching the frame more than the tank, so uncertain if the grips will/can go nicely in the right place.

WDYDTYBT: Took it to BMW to get the front shock replaced under warranty as it was "very slightly weeping". Less than 1.5 hours from arrival. Most happy.

NooBish AbbZ · 27 Jul 2013 at 23:46
