Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
I felt like I needed something new after riding mine as much as I could for a few months, got to the point of thinking I needed more power etc. But once I'd had a break from it with the poor weather and then got back on it all was good again....maybe you just need to go out on it for a blast to get the SV bug back

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
I went out on mine today for a bit, which I shouldn't have done realllllllly.
I reaaaaaaaaalllllllllllllly need to service my brakes because i basically had none and my tyres are *cough* slightly low. I was taking it very steadily as well with the greasy roads and not having ridden much, but it makes me so excited for summer, dry roads, warm temps, new tyres, proper brakes, ride outs, etc etccccc. Roll on the summer ride out |

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
Had a really enjoyable ride out today, bike seems to be working fine after getting the valve clearances sorted, tyres only have a few hundred miles on them new chain and sprockets on it and the rear shock seems alot better than standard but thats not saying much. Just got to get some new brake lines fitted now and at some pont sort out the lowers i bought. Hopefully if the weather stays nice for the weekend i'll get a few more miles in then give it a really good spring clean and polish.

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
My poor bike is still at my folks - haven't even seen it since before Christmas... All this dry and crisp weather makes me want to ride it though!

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
Went out all day today (the bonus of being out of work...), I went Norwich - Hunstanton - Brancaster - Wells - Norwich, and took my camera gear with me to take some nice blue sky pics
To be honest some of the roads still have way too much carp on them to the point where I am a little weary on the corners 'cause I don't know what'll be in my path....so it's either boring A roads or worrying B road corners right now... |
