I haven't changed anything at all. The tyres are newish, but they were changed 3 months ago. I've not even put air in them in the last fortnight (which could also have had a minimal effect). However, I've just been out and back, put it back on stand, and now all is fine. :) I can only assume...

Thanks for the suggestion, but I doubt it, as the carpet is very thin, and appears to be as level as ever. However, I'm planning on popping out on the bike tomorrow, so will deliberately park it in a slightly different place afterwards, to see if there's any difference. :d

Hi all, In the past my rear wheel, with the bike on the centre stand, has always spun freely. Today I noticed that it's ever so slightly dragging on the carpet (yeah, carpet in the garage!). The wheel will still spin, but with a slight rubbing noise, which was what attracted my attention to...

Nice one. :up:

This doesn't answer your question, I'm afraid, but I had one of those on my last bike - a Bandit 1250. Because it was faired (and there was lots of plastic on it) it was a simple task to hide the wiring from one end to the other. I'm interested in the answer to your question, but even if it is...

Welcome mate, from north Wales.

Welcome, mate. Tuesday's not far away! When I bought mine I had to wait 10 long days to pick it up!

Things have changed a little ....

Here's a couple of classics - on Triumphs - I don't think we've had.

A couple of pics of my 2011 T100.

I'm fairly skinny. Never had a problem with mirrors!

This thread makes an interesting read. When I started biking in the late 1970s I don't think the word 'countersteering' existed; I certainly never heard it used. Good riders just learnt to do it sub-consciously. Having come back to riding in the last decade, I can now exploit it more because...

Great looking bike. (And, as others have said, great garage!)

Oh, I am. :banana:

I clearly stand corrected here. If I use my usual conversion program (or indeed the conversion facility in Windows calculator) they both confirm your figures, which are obviously right. Yet when I ask them both to convert a UK gallon direct to a US gallon they both say that 1 UK = 1.2 US...
