Thought about starting my 24k service.

Realized it was too cold to be in the garage.

Stayed the make the beast with two backs inside.

Gee you Northern Hemispherians do it tough with the cold.

You're off the road for a fair whack of time each year.

5) Noticed that a chain lube is now 100 miles passed due.

How often do you do that?

I put baffles in my exhaust.  Happy neighbours and less likelihood of upsetting the local Plod.  Not that you can hear the difference, over the clutch rattle!

I tried the DB killers in my Leo Vince pipes a while back. Not that much quieter, but able to ride fine without ear plugs.

I prefer them out though!

Great idea for a thread Ung!
I don't know why you didn't do it sooner  cheeky

I checked the status of my Monster's battery tender.  Green lights seem like a good thing.

By the book, every 600 miles.

Brought the bike inside; lubed the chain, scrubbed the grime off and waxed the tank and seat cowl.

Thought about getting the front of the barn dug out so I can get both bikes to the vet.

I'm gonna need a piece of equipment to do it though. Undecided
