I tightened up the two bolts that hold my side stand on.

Not my bike but my gear.
After several rides in 30+ degree heat my boots smelled worse than Bodytards mum after being fingerbanged by a fish gutter down the docks. Also a thick coating of dead flies.
Top marks to Nikwax leather cleaner and restorer.

MOTs at 9:30 and 11:30. ZX6R and R1 passed with no advisories, but the tester only had to sit on the Kawasaki to determine I'd dialled out ALL the rebound. It still doesn't feel right though. He commented that the Kawasaki was doing well at 61k miles. My annual mileage is much less than it used to be.
Now, I'm not naturally out-going (although I've got better with age) but bikes are such an ice-breaker that I had interesting conversations with two customers, initially about bikes but then about all sorts of other stuff. I love this about bikes, and bike shops. The nearest parallel I can think of in respect of "ice-breakers" is walking a dog and meeting other owners. I can't have another dog though, it wouldn't be fair to leave it at home all day. ____________________ '93 Yamaha XJR400 grey import (p-ex’d), '99 Kawasaki ZX6R (nicked), another '99 ZX6R (still got it) and '03 Yamaha YZF-R1 (still got that too.) |

swapped the cam chain over from the broken engine, into the replacement engine.
valve clearances were way out of spec. timed up engine only to notice everything is 1 tooth out in relation to the crank sprocket. guess i'll be doing it again
sprayed the engine covers in VHT wrinkle red.. it looks meh.
thought about selling it and getting something new that doesnt need so much care and attention |
