Hey.

I am free tomorrow and Thursday pretty much. I can bring the Haynes manual and any tools inc soldering gear. Can teach you how to do it, or do it for you. It's up to you.

What tools do you have? (so I know what to bring) if I need to bring the car (dependent on what tools i need to bring and if its ****ing it down) would you mind contributing towards the bridge fare?

PM me your address.

Look forward to meeting you and getting you back on the road.

Default Re: Crashed My Curvy

Hi guys 3 new points regarding the crash.

Have new (old) fairings , where can I get candy grand blue spray can from to touch them up? One piece has a filled crack that hasnt been painted.

Secondly , my bike is using about 35 Miles to a 5er now , seems like the consumption is alot more?

Finally , I'm not sure whether I'm just being paranoid but I feel a lot more vibration, especially rythmically in the foot pegs

Thanks a bunch !

Rhythmic vibration in the pegs... check your chain.

Stiff or very worn links. An odd link may have excessive play in length where the pins have worn.
