What exactly for..?

It's up the rugby club in my town.  We are holding a day of song for several groups in June.  Plus it is going to rented out for functions and stuff.  A wedding this weekend.

i got a fork seal leaking on the xt , and steering felt funny today, bit  like dodgy  head bearings ... could not enough oil in one of the forks cause steering to feel funny ?

Bit obvious but have you checked tire pressures?

Yeh checked them , they are ok , it’s deffo leaking from fork seal , so reckon it’s that , or possible head bearings or both , need to get front wheel off the ground see if it’s notchy  when turning handle bars , they feel ok with it on the ground when turning it stationary .

Feels strange to not see some thought provoking possibly acidic posts from Pete here this morning as he invariably kicked the week off and got everyone posting. It occurred to me that we have lost one of the old guard, we have seen a lot of this over the years in the motorcycle scene, some from natural causes, some bike accidents, other more tragic events like Chopstick Jim. It is the consequence of getting older that you see people pass on. In Pete’s case he will be missed because quite simply he was a giant in the online motorcycle scene, he had a unique way of bringing people together online. Unlike just about everyone else who runs forums, Pete never took himself too seriously, he was as fair game for piss taking as anyone else. I’m half expecting to find he has been interned in a crypt built in the shape of a Shad top box and still slightly smaller than the one fitted to his bike. 
 

The internet seems a little quieter this morning and the world feels a little emptier.

it does , he was definitely a one off and a character ... i will miss him for sure which sounds strange as i never met the man....  i would imagine he would of been the same in real life as he was on here... and i reckon when he called me an annoying cunt there was a little bit of affection there ( well , thats what i like to think )
