What Did You Do to Your Bike Today ?

[Kwasaki]

Uncovered the Blade for another little ride today, so hot at the moment so no protection just a slow cruise on the back roads to the farm. 

 

 

Not bad for a 2536 manufactured bike assembled in Japan and registered in Thailand 2537.

Got my cylinder bored. The wall is a bit thin so if anyone wants some bacon sliced let me know.

Mechanic should wear gloves!

Is it within a engineering spec not to warp and hold up. 

[VocalNeal]

^ No idea what those are. I'll just run it and see what happens.

 

I have discovered that hogging a Grand Filano out to 150 would have the same wall thickness as a stock Honda 110.

Yamahas are well over engineered , compared to honda.

Looks like my laptop bag, and may be able to put 1 set of underwear & t-shirt, to swap out, while the other dries after washing.   Along with the laptop, a necessity when out & about.   

 

The wife's overnight bag/storage case.

That my e-scooter, and no, I don't use the 'box' that came with it, and why I had to use the promo photo.  Does give me the option to be a Panda delivery driver if things get hard ....

 

Scooter, though now has light colored, cloth seat covers.  Damn thing (black) heat up fast

I kicked it.  Then inflated the tires.  I'll ignore it until next week when I start it up for a few minutes.

Did a 50 miles (80k) round trip yesterday and worked out some costs out of interest.

 

Last fill up was 95 costing 750 so going on to reserve which is by switching a tap on my bike I had done 167 miles (267k) and that works out at about 2•8 per kilo.

 

Filled up with 91 costing 770 so will see how that works out per kilo.

I like to see the direction move about... Ball Type Compass....  I find on the CELL MOUNT on my phone it does not stay on long plus not really a fan of the phone mount.   Cheers Mate, on the pegs.

Well I have got one in my truck and I just glued the rubber sucker to the surface.

Maybe there's somewhere to  stick on your bike there is on my bike if I wanted to.
