My 12s

Postby Grant » Thu May 08, 2008 9:14 pm

Story so far is that I bought the bike on 6th Oct '07 after trading in my Sprint ST. On the way home after about 120 miles I managed to highside it about a mile from home. I got a broken collar bone and 4 ribs. The bike got broken plastics, mirror, head cover and footrest along the left hand side. Couldn't ride for about 8 weeks but since then I've done about 3000 miles (mostly it seems in the rain!). Mods so far are Remus headers and Y piece, Laser titanium cans, hugger, Schnitzner belly pan, Wunderlich double bubble screen and Ventura luggage.

Off to the NW200 next week so that'll be the first long run. The only thing I would say is that I seem to have got the Ohlins set up the way I want it now but it involved taking 2 turns of preload off front and rear and quite a few clicks of damping.
I never want to fall off again!!
