South West Bikers | Motorcycle Forum

It's a nice day out there people, go get your bikes and get out to play. There won't be many Saturdays like it this year.

Wet here at the mo. Looks like its going to clear though .

Why is it when ever the sun comes out the wife has some vitally urgent thing that means I can not possibly go for a ride but any time it's pissing it down I seem to get the bus pass stamped.

Had a look at the bike today and it's been set in the garage for so long that the supercorsa sc2's have flat spotted

Note to self must use paddock stands

Just get up early and go before she wakes up, then be back for breakfast.

Open and empty roads + boss lady asleep = no pass required.

Get up ealry and go and comeback when she is in bed again , win win situation . or find a bird that rides as well . i have , she lives to far away and the missus objects to her coming to stay with me though

Went out yesterday try out some new stuff for holiday, well impressed with our scarla rider g9 intercoms really clear and voice activated with built in radio and Bluetooth for all your media, also new front sprocket down one tooth pulls your arms out on acceleration but alot better low down at slower speeds
Plus put on some 929 fireblade clipons which gives you a 1" rise above standard bit more control with my short arms

well had a good ride on the old Z650 today , went to Bude to the classic show , , then through Holsworthy to Torrington , had a brew at the van on the common , and took some pics of the bonfire , then back through Bradworthy to home

Ye I was out this weekend as well, had the bird on the back so wasn't as spirited but nice to get out, did the A377 up to croyde, spot of lunch and back to Exeter.

More weekends like that please
