e are doing a four day Sierra Passes Tour, back and forth across the mountain range, starting the first day through Yosemite. Should be an EPIC tour!
Sounds like it'll be amazing Skutorr - looking forward to seeing your write-up on it!

Yeah it could have been my £250 bill for front and rear tyres that I'll be paying tomorrow thanks to wear and tear and two screws :D

Still the rear tyre has lasted 12000 miles and the front much longer :D

Funky what tyres do you use ? I cant get anywhere near that sort of milage on the srv 6k is about tops at the ware bars and with the original pirellis i struggled to 4k . Ahhh thats it yes i inspected and serviced the brakes ,which i found to be all good . Matched up a load of fasteners ready for when the panels are removed next week . Sorted out paint for the panels . lubed the chain .Modified the under seat compartment to allow easy access to some bolts and installed blanking plugs . Made measurements ready to fabricate my own exhaust to fit under the engine ,which with removal of the existing brackets save 10 kilos` and will lower the mass .

Got "Bod" out of the garage.
Road to work - passing several petrol stations on the way... :P
Parked up.
Got busy with work stuff (after attending to the maxi-muppets of course) ;)
Previous bikes, many and varied. Last: KAWASAKI J300 SE

Ferret: Current set are Bridgestone Battlax somethings... I know the new ones are Bridgestone Battlax SC's, I'd say its more down to my riding style and where I ride than tyres, I know I don't ride like people think you should ride.

That's only because you haven't actually stolen it, it's yours! :lol:
