Not this week but likely next week or the week after.

Sorry Brian, got family visiting at the moment.

One of the sprockets is to blame. It is likely not perfectly round.
Try refitting your old sprockets one at a time to find out which of the new sprockets is the problem.

Thanks for the review Rob. I've been looking at a few of these system as I'm thinking of ditching the Garmin on my adventure bike and fitting something else, like either an Android tablet or Aoocci C3 type clone. I'd only use it for navigation as I already play music from my phone to my intercom, an...

Ditto, also having a spot of shoulder trouble.
Just deciding if it's actually worth tax'ing the 1190 as the weather is mostly rubbish for the first half this month and then I'm mostly busy for the second half.
So no, not gonna be there tonight I'm afraid.

Just put a new front sprocket on my bike so that needs time for the loctite to set, otherwise I might well have been there.

And that was us done, from here we set off for home.
The traffic had now mostly cleared and just when the sun was becoming a PITA a dark cloud came over so we could actually see where we were riding.

Until the next one guys.

Thanks to all for coming out and putting up with traffic. I got to show you guys some of my favourite Dorset roads and also my favourite cafe. Avengers assembled.

Yeh, just out of date I think. If you look on their FB page they confirmed the bike night yesterday.

Just tested my bike after fitting a new chain & sprockets and nothing fell off so I guess I'm good to go.

See you all at the meeting point, I'll be the one wearing the orange carnation.

Also a parts order arrived midday so I've been in the garage all afternoon fitting a new chain & sprockets to the old girl, was going to wait until after tomorrows ride but threw caution to the wind and dived straight in. It all went well so I'll give it a test ride in the morning to make sure i...

I'm keeping my powder dry until tomorrow.

This is the route I'm thinking of doing, takes in some good roads whilst staying as away from traffic as much as is reasonable. Can stay even further away from traffic & holiday parks but then we'll only ride boring roads or tight country lanes... so I guess we'll just have to hope the bank holi...

Yup, trunk roads and also the holiday parks.

Yeh, that should be fine. Will likely be a 14:00 set off but need to sort the route to be sure.
