Saul Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Properly cleaned my car today, first time in coming on for two years given we had a hosepipe ban for most of that time. The old jalopy scrubs up well Then got the bike out for a bimble up to Damerells I’ll put some pictures up of the pretty things on a different thread. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I do not need much encouragement to not do any gardening. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 When we get a dry day I will measure it, it's something to pass a little time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saul Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Just thinking about it, twas a joy to go out today in my Leather, jeans and open face, just so much lighter and less restrictive than normal gear. Also on the plus side the increased vision from an open face . Much prefer it when the weather allows. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both dominator seals and one on the TDM have just had the cleaning tool run around, cleaned and reassembled, will see how they go before replacing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look after your rear suspension on the dominator there's practically nothing available for them collar wise now that includes the one that holds the swingarm on 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had it rebuilt last year as the adjuster had seized but otherwise it was good value for money What other choices are there for the dog ? do Hyperpro do anything ?

I'm hoping someone will start making them their easy enough to do if you have the equipment though. The bolts are unavailable as well i checked a few other bikes but they all have 10mm bolts and not 12mm like the dominator 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
