Took my alloy footrest hangers of and sent them to the powdercoaters for a covering of satin black.


Anyone any suggestions for replacement mounting screws/bolts of i am correct they are M10x1.25 x30 but I can only find socket head or hex head not the domed socket heads like OEM

Got mine yesterday too! I ordered a tank bag as well but they forgot to send it! Hopefully it's on it's way now though.

At 6:55 in the morning, coming to work from ten inches of snow (and still snowing) - this is a provoking question.

Did you ride in the snow ?

 

I know someone in Norway, inside the arctic circle,, a female music teacher in a primary school, who fits studded tyres to her maxi scooter and rides all year round....making us real riders look like wimps.

 

After doing this she jumps on a scooter with studded tyres and an apron over her lower half and rides on the ice  !

Is this why Norwegian men are known to get depressed ?  Wink

Back on topic, I wheeled out the 9'er today and started her up.  Then wheeled it back under cover. Smile  Also SORN'ed the mk1 as the tax had expired.

Yeah, I know a few driving at winter, too. Small(ish) bikes like DRZ400, studded tires. Methinks it would be a better idea in the countryside where you roads would be covered with snow and Ice for long periods. Where I live (near Oslo), bigger roads are salted in the winter making them full of mud-like, moist goo. On the smaller roads, you may find a thin ice coating when conditions are right. I guess even studs aren't sufficient under these conditions. If you need to, of course, it would be possible. It just doesn't look that fun.....

Answered questions by a colleague about why i wasnt scared of ice enough to ride in the current weather.

he restores old bmw r25's back home in Netherlands.


i couldn't think of a reason ....except that the bike is stable ☺

Picked up the footrest hangers from powder coat today and got them fitted up. Going to need to tidy up mounting bolts with some satin black hammerite as stainless alteratives seem to be non existent.


What Have You Done To Your Tdm Today? - dablik - 03-03-2016

Had trouble sourcing those last year Tam, wonder if something with a bit smaller button head would be suitable.....oh Leeeeeeee !!




What Have You Done To Your Tdm Today? - leehenty - 03-03-2016
