What have you done with your bike today?

[Fat Rat]

I went out for a few hours today, nowhere in particular but it still took three hours.

   This rarely, if ever, happens when out in the car.

Today saw a second hand (but nearly new) Powerbonze screen turn up to try on the Tigger. I Have the taller Triumph screen in dark tint with a little spoiler which works OK but this was only £40 on the Tigger forum so I thought it was worth a try as I'll easily get that on eBay if I don't like it. It's about 10mm shorter than the current screen but has a very pronounced 'V' to it's shape so should deflect air to the sides. I'll give it a try over the weekend and see what I think.

Sounds like a good purchase hope it works ok for you, will be interested in your findings

Bought some mounts for my Ghost XL and older GoPro cameras. Think I'll have the Ghost forward facing and the GoPro rear facing for now.

Still trying to decide whether or not to take the VFR up to Matlock on Sunday or give the 'Blade it's first outing since last September.....

[Asmith61]

I have mounts in different places on my bikes and helmets just to get different Angles/shots there are great mounts available now days 

Give the blade a run out if it’s ready to go ?

For the first time in a while I was able to get the bike out for a spin after work. It's not often I get the chance but it was nice to put a few miles on as the sun was starting to slowly drop. I had a bimble up the coast and on the way back stopped of at the Queen Elizabeth 2nd park near Ashington. It's usually a mass of sea birds, Swans and people feeding them but was ominously quiet tonight, we have had a lot of the Avian Flu in the area so it might be that ? Who knows ? I'd forgotten how gravelly the car park was too...

Glad you managed to get out after work. I used to love a ride after work. It looked a nice place you stopped at 😀
Yes I noticed the gravel,   I am always wary on gravel especially 2 up

I had one of those 'bugger, I forgot the gravel' moments, but it was worth if for a nice sunny pic

I got out on the bike today for a few hours and ended up out until just after dark ! The Mrs kicked me out and said 'go have some fun' so I did. I realised this is the first time I've ridden this bike at night. I have to say the LED headlights are amazing an easily as good as any car I've had, very impressive.

[Asmith61]

Glad you managed to get out today mate just what you needed to take your mind off of all that’s going on

Cheers, I feel a lot better today and it just show's what a good run out on the bike can do

Today the tigger was treated to a new rear tyre or booler as we say up here. It's replaced the horribly squared off set that has lasted me around 5,000 miles, a bit of a record for me. They've been great tyres and it didn't take a lot of thought to stump up for a second set. The front will be back tomorrow night and I'll give it a right good clean while i can access it easily.
