If it had been on the road more often and you had the same level of problems you would have simply shook if off but its obviously frustrating when you just get back on it and boom another problem. Chin up fella your luck will change for sure.
+The XT Donkey You might be right but genuinely I was closer than ive ever been to shelving it. I think its this side of it thats made the difference tbh.
It's all about the smiles per Gallon the bike gives you :D I paid about £95 for my rear tyre and am still feeling the squeeze! Doesn't help my job only pays £80 a month :/ Positive thoughts dude :) Very nearly got a better paying job with it! Stay safe dude!
+Storm Got a couple little bits to do with the ST, some LED action hopefully. I REALLY want a small project bike, 125/250 in the shed for the winter but its a very slim chance atm.
TheTripleTwister I see, yeah a 125 would be cool. Working on a little project of my own at the moment with an arduino (Tiny computer) - It detects pitch or tilt, and if an RFID tag, on say, a key chain is not detected, it sends me a Text. Works all good, but I'm tidying it up now you see, I'll put it on my bike when I save up to buy one lol..
fuel on the road that is not dealt with / metal covers with no rubber hard wearing contact layer. Plus those stupid metal squares at crossing points. Drivers that try and squeeze you when they do not have enough room.
TheTripleTwister When I started Changing my own tires I started with three guys and a milk crate. Then I had a few good teachers that taught me how, the Spoons are what you need to start, you have them. Now just to figure out a way to get the bike up on something to be able to take the wheel off, either front or back.
