What have you done on your bike today?

Surely you just wear gang colours and ignore the lights on a hardley 🤔
There was a guy yesterday on a HD and i nodded to him out of habit and he didn't do anything, he looked like a wanabe club member. I looked in my mirror and he didn't have any colours on the back of his leather waistcoat( just saying that is fucking gay:)) fucking knob!!

Harley and gay in the same paragraph, who'd have thunk it 🤣
To hot for riding at the moment but will be out later, i was talking to my friends in Italy earlier and Marco said they are getting boiled alive!! 🥵 When the natives say it's hot it's fucking hot.

There has to be a few of you so one can block the road while the rest of you blast through unhindered !! Safety in numbers !! :ROFLMAO:

I've found the majority of Harley riders are like BM w*****s & only wave "to their own". When I'm out on my old nail they always wave !! W*****S, I don't even bother waving to them now. I think the most ignorant are BM riders on them 1300 touring things, two up with matching clothes, words fail me !! :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:
 
Harley riders who wear normal clothes and bought their bikes just because they have retirement money to spend and fancied a cruiser do wave, I find. The fingerless gloves/village people chaps brigade, never.

Sports bike squeaky leather types, occasionally.

GS all-the-gear-no-idea riders with spotlights blazing, very rarely.

Ancient old farts on Enfield Himalayans or vintage Brits, never. Probably because they can't see you and are too preoccupied trying to recall where they are and what they came out for.

They ain't spotlights they are actually part of the headlights .. I just replaced one at 353 euro including vat 👀 a Guinness is a Guinness and won't wave regardless of the bike they are on, but I do find harley riders the worst..especially the waist coat wearing wankers but they are probably only riding 6 days since owning a bike .. then I've met harley guys and talked motorcycle shit for an hour over a coffee standing in the sun 🙄 let face it Ducati guys ain't exactly anyone's favourite 😆

The trouble I found with that was at Silverstone and I had got there early for a good spot but got a call that I needed to get home for a proper emergency. I'm leaving, tens of thousands are comming in, I was like one of those bobble head dogs and I swear blind I thought my head was going to fall off.

The worst one ever was, I saw an older style bike coming towards me and as I nodded, they started throwing hammers like a tomahawk machine gun. Fekking enfield owners

As I mentioned on here before, recently, anyone coming at me on the road, feet first and especially on a HD…they can #### right off…

The set up on mine is ok and not stupid, the real set up on a Sportster is the normal set up with legs down. Mine has a relaxed and not silly forward facing affair.:)

1 Down 1 to go. Got a new skin on the KTM, fekkin $125 for a single tire change, mono rear at that. Thieves. Thankfully I gor a deal on that Rosso IV Corsa for $118 from Revzilla so I still managed to save a little. I swear I want to make riding affordable to everyone and tire changes are such a rip off. Cost as much a 4 on a car around here. I want to just change tires and beat every mofo's price. This one thing really pisses me off.

Kept the old one, checked the plug, pussy strength was the problem, I barely got it in, so I'll patch and keep for spare.

Just need to service the SF and all will be good.

Them bumps on the ride....ooofff. Can't wait for this kidney shit to be over and done.

If only I had your problem.. Rang Ducati Sunderland today for a ride in-ride out quote for a pair of tyres on my Diavel: £459.

Admittedly that's with Rosso Corsa IVs as suppliers aren't listing the cheaper 3s any more, so that's probably added 70 odd quid over the 3s I bought last year. I can get it done a little cheaper at an independent workshop but not enough to tip the balance given that the dealership can get the tyres in 24 hours. And they've got a free coffee machine while I'm waiting...
 
The other day the screws rattled out of my visor and peak. Today I rode down to West Bay and the lid into Helmet City They took it to bits, cleaned it, replaced a missing part, lubricated it and handed it back, no charge.
Then the lad told me that if I didn’t mind the embarrassment that silicone lubricant was a lot cheaper in the chemist shop than that sold for moto helmets

I can’t understand why anyone would want to sit on the beach underneath an overhanging sandstone cliff which could collapse at any time without warning!
 
Right, not so much today, but this last week or so.

Went out Lincolnshire way, introduced my mate to Bardney bends and tried to show him where we used to keep the boat. The road didn’t exist anymore, it stopped here

Went to a new biker cafe on Sunday morning

Went home, watched some motorbike racing while eating leftovers from the previous night.

Went back out for an evening bimble, passed a church remote enough to be in a guns and roses video

Caught a nice sunset over Chrome Hill on the way home

On Monday, ChezzyM took me out, he’d plotted a route to Hawes avoiding main roads and major conurbations (Holmfirth doesn’t count), did pass through some nice places though

Those are the past bits of week that I recorded on my camera, I’m sure I’ve done something else, but didn’t take any phottys..

The last few times for tyres I’ve bought from Demon Tweaks and got the local guy to do them - 2 minutes away and does them while I’m there chatting to him so I know he’s not cut any corners on balancing etc, and he likes cash 👍

I used to do that. My local bloke here won't fit tyres he hasn't supplied. I wish I still had my clean and spacious double garage with power and lighting and then I'd fit my own.
 
Today i went down to Sammy Millers fo BMW day, i got down there a bit late as my alarm didn't go off so not many bikes there. I then headed for Ringwood and on to Salisbury for a Greggs Mexican chicken bap and a drink, i see Southons of Salisbury is closing down at the end of July. This is all i've seen so far this year companies closing down it's rife all over the UK.:( Southons has been there for as long as i can remember and after a Google it was Founded in 1907.
