What's pi$$ed me off today.........!!

(Just thought fornicate sounded better than FUCK Hanna)..

I'm trying to be a good boy...... Maybe........

 

Stop shit stirring you old git!

 

My Bike.......

 

Whassup wiv it? Can I help?

 

Lack of power but missing at the same time, Clears its self once speed and revs pick up. Like no fuel or something like that. Plan is to check the easy stuff, filters plugs etc then get the carbs set???

 

You done anything to it recently???

 

having to apply for jsa again !

 

Washed it?!

 

Less of the old.......

 

would be Numero Uno cause of the problem, wet/damp electrics check around coils. HTleads etc.
Start it in the dark and see if you have any fireworks going on

 

Thanks. After washing it I always start it and let it run for 10 minutes or so, the thought process being that heat off the engine will dry out the moisture. Would the ride from St Leonards to Icklesham and back have cleared any moisture? Its never happened before. It does need a little bit of TLC in the maintenance side of things so I feel a day off soon

 

Okay on to my favourite gripe on my Journey to work I often turn onto Bunny Lane to avoid having to go through Tunbridge Wells, to see at the junction three potholes the size of which The Corps of Royal Engineers would have dug at the Somme battlefield trying to get the council to fix them more chance of winning euro million, mind you should buy a ticket might help.

 

having to buy new brake pads for the gixxer because thanks again to medway council salting the road white for a week has made my brake pistons clog up and wear the pads..

 

Have you reported them? http://www.eastsussex.gov.uk/roadsandtransport/roads/maintenance/default.htm

 

Waiting on an answer from them, being as it is a main road I am sure it must have been pointed out at least once before

 

And cos they insist on using tarmac on the roads, its worn my back tyre out!.

 

i would agree normally but the fronts are 8 months old.the council made canal road a bus route late last year and they gritted three times a day for a week the road turned white with the salt.After having a bit of fade I decided they needed cleaning omfg the amount of salt in just the front calibers could have kept the local chippy going for a month. The belly sections of the fairing was nearly a inch thick with the stuff and the piston side were jammed solid nearly with the crap.

 

Bloody UK prices, in the USA they are like £272, but in the UK they are £520......(and they are made in Oz)!!

 

Similar reason I never got the second motor for the stabilisers, shipping cost from US would have nearly doubled the cost.
I did look into US addressed forwarding companies, don't remember the name but the deal is you buy it and send it to them (US warehouse) they then ship it in bulk to the UK for a massively discounted price.
