ride

Has anyone adjusted the rear ohlins shock (the two bolts at the bottom) to make the steering angle steeper/raise rear by a few mm? If so how much thead you got showing? :thumbup (Tempted with a play)

Okay here goes have been reading alot about ride out happening south of the border and gettin pissed off i cant go soooooo how abouts some of us on the forum from Bonnie Scotland get together(not in a weird sexual way mind)....So if anyone comes up wi some dates and places lets get the ball...

Superb weather here today so me and Lucie went to The Victory open day at Arrow Mill, Alcester. Nice roads ... 175 mile round trip, treated the wee lass to a MacD on the way because I am a high roller me. But ... we took a Victory Hammer S our for a burl in a pod of 8 other Victorys ... and I...

Like many others, had a great ride out yesterday Harrogate / Masham / Leyburn / Hawes for some scran, Then Kirby Longsdale / Thwaite / Muker / Reeth / Leyburn / Harrogate Roads were fairly quiet, with a good mix of corners... Pic from me phone (but doesnt do it justice) scenery was...

Once again the weather was lovely here,womenfolk out for the day,....best get the bike out then!:yes Did'nt get very far when she started missfiring and then cut out completely.:mad:I noticed the sidestand light was glowing on despite being in the up position.Pulled into a feild gateway.Out with...

Hooked up with DaveB and TubbyT this morning and headed over to Wales. Usual loop, up the stunning Usk Rd, Aber, Brecon, Llandovery, Builth etc. Beautiful weather, not too much traffic, ideal conditions. Naturally we took it steady and obeyed all posted limits. Met up with Evlin at Aber on...

hey guys, got out for the first proper ride of this year, loving the weather ! The bike feels great but ive got a little problem. Throttle openings from 0% to about 10% travelling at slow speeds (ie through town) are really 'fluffy' and a bit 'laggy' (not very responsive). my bike also spits a...

Eh up fellas. As per request I realise that theres a ride out in May being organised by Gilo and Shotgun but there was a request for another one in between. My suggestion for the people who joined us last time is Abergavenny, Lower Chapel, Upper Chapel (roads we didn't do last time) onto...

Hi All. Does any one ride out in cambridgeshire/suffolk. I will be interested in coming along sometime. Thanks Jamie

After the success of yesterday's forum ride in Wales, who'd be up for a ride to the seaside? I'm thinking Bristol down to Bridport, then along the cracking roller coaster road along the Jurassic coast into Weymouth for fish and chips on the beach. Not as good roads as in Wales (coast road...

I'll post this in the rides section too, but I figure more people will look on here. Great ride today, weather wasn't as good as we hoped, overcast nearly all day and cold, but the roads were dry. Dave B, me, and Windy meet at Aust services: The main group meet up at Abergaveny bus...

Hi All, What with the weather improving and me having a free weekend this weekend - does anyone fancy a ride out Saturday or Sunday. We could meet at the services on the A12 at Boreham say 10am and go from there - route to be decided, maybe back roads up passed stanstead into suffolk? Let...

just a quick one. To increase ride height, do you increase the amount of threads showing on the very bottom of the shock? Its a factory so shock is ohlins, just in case it matters Thanks in advance.

Hi all Just bought an rsv and the last owner has lowered the back by about 3 inches and pulled the forks right through the yokes. In case anyone was wondering this is the worst possible setup! Its a 99 model does anyone now how to adjust the ride height, the shock is sachs. I asked the...

Couldnt wait any longer and had to get the old R out for a quick blast, been a long winter and busy with work etc. Bike hasnt been run since I did the full service in January but before I set off I did notice the usual Ohlins fork seal slight weep....nothing too bad though. Great run up to...

Just to confirm the post that said Saturday 18th March ride out has now been altered to Sunday 27th of March. Hopefully same people will still be able to make it. Aka_Gilo to lead the ride out from Abergavenny in his new Fireshark helmet cos if anyone gets lost we can just follow the Flames.

So the rain finally stopped yesterday and me and another mate on a tuono went for a quick blast to High Beach. After getting over the initial cold and at how tall the bike first felt - I can honestly say this is the first bike that I have come home grinning - and with all the crap I have been...

Took my t out for a few miles today to blow out the cobwebs (started 1st press & no optimate:thumbup) It took all of 10 meters to put the most ridiculous grin on my face and my plan of going easy on the throttle as it's cold, greasy and I've a new tyre on the front lasted about as long:lol...

So today was the day, a mate had organised a decent test ride for me at one of the shops he has had a lot to do with on an '06 RSV. got there nice and early meet the bloke I spoke to on the phone and sat down to read some mags while they got the bikes out of the show room, the RSV was out the...
