I did 120 miles on Thursday but it was just going to work and then back and forth to a few sites when I got there. I also went to the Isle of Dogs Asda to see if I could see the large man who demands a pound from people as they return their trollies and gets violent if they say no but he wasn't there, I heard an old Italian man decked him the day before. The police never seem to keep hold of him for long. Up the road from Asda is another large man known as The Blue bridge Man who walks up and down the same street (by the Blue Bridge) then deliberately barging into people and then threatening them for getting in his way. The police keep letting him off with a warning as well. Two nut-nuts so close is strange. I wonder what would happen if I could get them to meet? First time I've dared ride the bike since my back went twang last Wednesday week. I thought long and hard before deciding fuck it and putting it on the centre stand when I got home, it's a git to do that, especially compared to the Versys. Back out for a short trip tomorrow. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shouldn’t mess with the wildlife nursing a bad back. Is it a bigger suspension travel on the Yamaha that makes it harder to put on the center stand? Maybe increasing preload helps a bit? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
