Took the db killer off and didn't change the stock screen for the sport one, since it's getting colder and all.

Had both the engine warning light and battery warning light come on intermittently but neither made any difference to running either at motorway speed or fast & slow A-road cruising. Hooked the scoot up to a charger but all seems well.

Confused and worried. Time for a service anyway so I'll get the dealer to hook up his Gameboy kit and check fault notices.

Fitted a rear tyre, changed the antifreeze.
Paddle harder. I can hear banjo music!

Same with me. Hardly at home at the moment so don't get a chance to take it out.

Took it out of the garage, backed out the car and put it in again.
Haven't driven the car for a while but it will go through service tomorrow, hence the change.

Surprisingly I started enjoying the tmax in this cold and rainy weather. All other bikers have almost disappeared from the streets. They put their "real" bikes in storage until next summer.
