  1. So decided to fit RSR carbon dash surrounds as I am struggling to find an undamaged OEM part for the RHS...

    So I now have 3 sets of OEM dash surrounds in various states of distress! The search continues...

  2. Ita easily done. I ended up missing the apex and taking a similar trip across the grass on the exit of the Brands hairpin when trying to show off for the snapper last year. Unlike you I managed to keep the bike shiny side up though. Hope you’re ok and there’s not too much damage to the bike :upyeah:

  3. Fitted my latest eBay buy, SC Project exhaust & Evo-Tec hanger. It's road legal with the cat in the link pipe so just a bit louder but a lot lighter. I was surprised how heavy the OE exhaust was when I took it off!
     
  4. Went for a bank holiday bimble on the Triumph , headed out towards Longleat , stopped at Greggs nr Frome for a coffee and a doughnut .

  7. Always on the lookout for garage floor ideas, do you have any details on the tiles in your photo, and if so how do you find them?
     
  8. I like the striple, it’s a nicely shaped bike my mate had 1 and loved it. Everything you need in a naked: light, nimble and quick enough for all conditions what’s not to like. It was my second choice for a bike but took the KaaTooM 790 instead.
     
  9. When I’m back in the garage tomorrow I’ll take a picture of the spare box with all the details for you. Really good tiles and scrub up like new with some degreaser and a soft brush every so often
     
  10. Some faultfinding in the electrics.

  13. My dad has the 790 in his stable, he's 73 and loves it. Makes him feel like a hooligan again.

  17. Oil change on Hermann (the German) after a good ride today. Always amazes me how it looks like the bike's puking out coloured water when it's coming out hot!
    R1200S definitely the better choice than the Hyper for pillion rides this w/e!
     
  18. Out on M1100 today.. Petworth to Billingshurst not one car in sight - brilliant.

  19. Was on the 899 on Sunday at the Italian car and bike show Newby Hall nr Ripon, so it was the Kawasaki’s turn today ( they get jealous if they don’t get equal turns :joy: ) so me and 2 mates had a ride up to St Mary’s Loch just outside of Selkirk, that’s a 285 mile round trip from where I live, stunning day weather wise , 20 c and wall to wall sunshine :sun: all day.
    Got home with a million flies stuck to the front of the bike and my arse is just about paralysed :dizzy: , :joy::joy: great day out though and good crack with the lads :upyeah:
