What should i be checking for maintenance wise before i trundle up to the TT?

be good to have an idea on suspension settings, and any other camping tips when biking.
 
recently did the ring for a week, made sure to check every conceivable thing on the bike.... and the rear brake still died on me going into adenauer forst. but i always live by the following rule,

Keys Fone Passport and Mastercard, and the rest will slot into place.....

Most importantly enjoy yourself:thumbup
 
Bike, helmet, wallet, phone and the number for the AA or RAC on speed dial. :nana

Laugh ?? You guys with more experience of Aprilias are starting to worry me :dunno

Had a clutch slave cylinder go on me nearly half way across France riding the big SV, hoped I'd got away from that kind of scenario.:confused

Still I guess there has to be a downside to having this much fun :doug
 
I reckon you are worrying waaaay too much, just get on it and ride, so long as you have ptrol and beer tokens everything else will fall into place :thumbup
 
I think you are right firestorm.

If the fecking thing breakdown ill set fire to it and ring Scotty or Mcbryde to take me up there.

Can wait lads only 43 days to go !!!!!!!

Tim, We have a 12 man tent so if you need somewhere to doss down on the first night, it wont be a problem.

Would have msn'd ya, but everytime i go on, i get about 10 people all trying to talk to me at the same time, and being blonde, it don't happen, so i just stay away from it at the moment.
 
There's 8 of us going from our village (near Sheffield/Chesterfield), and meeting a bunch from Grantham and Burton, for a stag week. We go 6th - 13th. Our sailing on the 6th (Saturday) is about midnight! Hope there's somewhere we can get a breakfast at 4am. We're stopping on the campsite just up from Union Mills, where we stopped in '07. Can't wait!!
 
We are staying at Glenlough so if anyone wants to meet up whilst we are there give us a message
 
Nevermind ill leave the tent up for you and if you find any skiddy pants lyeing around then post them on to AMB67 for me lol
