did you win this one from ebay?????
yeah
good one , did my fork seals 2 mths ago with new fork oil, the front is a lot firmer now, even under heavy breaking, and made the scoot handle even more rigid, a pleasure to ride :D
I cant seem to remember.. I don't know where I'm going, but I'm on my way.

Went to smc sheffield to order a bearing for transmission case, and I picked up some front brake pads. On my way home my bolt on my exhaust, oxygen sensor fell off. Sounded like Ian chopper at Buxton. :D Got it home and bodged it till I get another. 10p and jubilee clip.

Took it out for a test ride after I finshed both jobs and the exhaust is fine, but the front brakes stopped working, by this when I pulled the front brake lever it came flush with the grip, checked the calipers to see if the fluid had come out, NO. So I had to travel home with only a rear brake. A mile down the road it worked again???????????? What could this be? Just so confused??? :?

Sing along with Dean Martin....

When the brakes seem to fade, exhaust's crappily made,
That's...... Aprilia!


Only joking Aprilia fans. It's Steve... He can break anything, Burgmans, Tmax, etc. etc. :kiss:

Sandy and I had a nice little ride out on our Burgman tonight. Went down to Lands End and had a bite to eat, then back up to Marazion for a stroll on the beach and an ice cream. Burgman’s going really well now and fuel consumption has increased to 62MPG.

^^ Very beautiful pictures Raven. It seems it was a great day to ride.

Really can't decide if I like the front screen cover Plasti-dipped. What do you think?

Will order a new exhaust later.
