  1. Fitted a Translogic shifter. I think it’s been sat in the garage for two years!

  2. Fitted a slightly lower screen to the bike as I have the low seat fitted the original was a little in my eye line.

  3. Better for anti buffering also.
     
  4. Gave the bike a decent clean, after it got covered in crap on the last few rides. Noticed that all of the bolts had come out of the Evotech engine guard, so am quite please I noticed that, as it could have caused an issue.

    I'm normally meticulous about cleaning the bike after each ride, so am now kicking myself for leaving it so long, as you tend to notice these issues when up close.

  5. Hi guys, purely by chance last week I was riding up Hartside when a pro photographer was doing a photo shoot of cars / bikes using that route, I came around an “ S” bend and nearly shat :poop: myself cos I thought it was a copper with a speed gun for a moment, so I had rolled off a bit compared to my normal velocity,…ahem ;)
    One of the guys did a quick google that night, found us and I’ve since bought the high quality digital images, first time in 12 years I’ve had any pictures of me actually riding the bike and I’m quite pleased with them,..it almost looks like I know what I’m doing ffs :D !!..

    The cool thing is that it’s a young lady who takes these pics, Mellisa Haig is her name and she’s contactable on instagram as “ Melonsnaps” I believe, she’s great to deal with and I’m dead pleased with the images, I know she does Hartside, Helmsley and Croft
    If you were up Hartside on the 8th April it’s worth searching her images on Instagram, you never know :upyeah:

  12. Cheers, certainly different riding position and experience to the new multistrada I've been riding at every opportunity.
    Pulled off the drive and couldn't lift my feet high enough to find the pegs
     
  13. Did the same when I sold my multi, also the steering lock took me by surprise on a few occasions.
    I really liked the multistrada especially on long haul holiday jaunts where it really comes into its own. However I just couldn’t shake the hankering for my first love of Ducati and its old school charm.
