Your Day Today!

The bike had an oil and filter change yesterday, so today it got fuelled to the brim and then went through the Jet Wash!

Next stage is a good polish and then clean and lube the chain.

Plenty of time to do that though.....cos it's not going anywhere soon! :classic_sad:

It’s a Mitas rockrider supposed to be a replacement for the discontinued army special thought I’d give it a go 

Ah yes !  I've got a mate who uses them on his 690 enduro 👍

I had one of those on the front of my Himalayan and it worked just fine.

Had a leaky fork at work yesterday so I tried making one of those seal cleaners out of an old milk bottle and had a bit of a scrape last night. It seemed to stop the leak, but the ride to work tomorrow will let me know for sure.

Gave the Kriega fork cover things a clean up and refitted them, quite a bit of grit loose inside the one on the leaky fork, but clean as a whistle on the fork that is behaving, so I'm hoping that was all it was.

What’s he think of them I haven’t read any reviews 

He likes them, he rides a lot of the lanes around Devon so they must be pretty good 👍

They've put you in the sin bin solely because you're a member here?
