Took the old girl out for some laps in the sun at Ride Park.. Could not have asked for better conditions for my first ride in 2.5years. 6mm of rain yesterday, prepped, loamy track, and perfect weather today. Surprisingly arm pump was not a real issue and had plenty of endurance for 15-20min motos, but have to admit I'm feeling pretty beat up now, moto is hard work.

These bad boys just got delivered, so keen to fit them to my F800GS. The stock ones are hilariously tiny and shit.
These are ridiculously large in comparison, and not that heavy thanks to the magic of aluminium.

Camping at Phillip island is just about sold out, had to settle for one of the pre-pitched sites, everything else is gone.
Doohan stand is all gone, so I got a ticket in the Champions stand on 10 and 11, just out of Lukey on the outside. Always happy to try a new stand but after last time it’s gonna have to be covered. This new stand is.

Made a rack at work for the XR today. Pretty ugly but proof of concept. Will make it look a bit nicer for v2
Pumped up the tyres on the FX for a ride tomorrow.
And fixing a late model CRF250R with oil supply issues foe a local shop.
Also having impure thoughts of buying a 450 or 500 exc after 20 years on small bore yamahas.

If you're fouling spark plugs there are probably 2 things you're doing wrong... People start their bikes and then turn them off for no reason, like after they wash the bike or just to make sure it will start the night before a ride.....start it and ride it...
Or its just too rich on the pilot jet and you are putting around like a Nanna. Extremely unlikely that you will foul a plug on the main jet wide open.

Took the 2021 Ninja 1000SX to get it dyno tuned today - Woolich tune - Tuner ran into issues as it seems Woolich has not actually unlocked the ECU as they claim so will have to keep checking back until they get an answer from Woolich about the error they ran into.
4/5ths of the tune is done he just got locked out of the fuel mapping options for gears 1-3 so it is still the way it was when it went down so not horrible. They were able to activate the dual throttle bodies and remove the restrictions however - fuel cut gone now and fans come on at 95 degs instead of 105 degs - Speed restrictions all removed as well.

Giant loop 48ltr dry bag, getting ready for a decent 3 day ride in a couple of weeks.
Also ordered some crash bars for my F800GS.
Nothing like throwing money at bikes when it’s raining and you can’t ride.

They’re pretty schmick, accessible from either end, nice easy strapping and it should fit in front of my top box.
I’ve had to ditch the hard case panniers after one exploded on me while I was riding down the freeway and dumped my gear on the road at 110km/hr.
Will go soft panniers but that means new rear racks and mounts and bags and I ain’t that cashed up just yet.
It’s a process! These boomer af ADV bikes ain’t cheap.

Did you have soft bags in the hard panniers? The inserts mean you just lose the whole insert as well as all your gear
