experience

Hi all; Having been a member of various bike-specific communities I know how annoying new members are when they start asking the same **** you have been over a million times. However having tried to find answers to a few immediate questions I have as a new owner of a 2005 RSVR (picked up a...

All, So last week I took my V4r up to Griff for its 12k service after some advice from here. I can now say that it was absolutely brilliant, It may look like a small industrial unit but it is spot on, The guys there are awesome and Griff is a character who really knows everything Ape...

Pulled into the garage on Sunday morning ready for the ride out with my mates & filled up with juice, started the bike to move it to the parking area & when I pulled up the started was still spinning, that's an interesting experience, had to leave the engine running with the starter spinning to...

Just in case anyone else has the same problem, I'd thought I'd give you the benefit of my experience of late as I couldn't find the same symptoms whilst searching this forum (unless I looked incorrectly, which is possible). I’d not started my bike (std. RSV 2003 model) in over 5 to 6 weeks and...

Hi Guys, thought i would share my Gearing Experience with You. GEN 1 STANDARD GEARING 17-42. I recently owned a 2002 Mille with Standard Gearing which made it very smooth to Ride, with bags of Torque on open Roads but a total pain in Town. So it definetly needed at least to go -1 Front & 1...

Doh, Sorry guys double post :stupid

Now I hope this is OK in here. This is all about a charity. The charity is called The Bike Experience. In short, there all about getting disabled riders (disabled from the chest down) back on a bike for a day with some track time! Its been going for 2 years I believe now, and were trying...

Picked up my lovely new RSV1000R in white. Great bike. Running it in, and trying hardest NOT to go above 6K. I have though, a few times whilst changing gear (and finding false neutral:whatsthat), blipped momentarily to aroung 6.2K. Dealer said 'I will know' if I go above 6k. Has anyone else had...

Thanks Allen for sending me his excellent job on his grills and air vents and pumping me up! heck yeah! now I got very sexy grills, I didn't have the material or the patience to make the rubber edges like you made so I just cut the scrap perforated Aluminum sheet which I had from another project...
