I looked hard but not that I can see.

210 right side and 230 left side off memory.

So this will sound strange but on a rear work stand and a level slab my left footpeg is 20mm lower than the right one. I have dismantled and can see no evidence of anything not being as it should be, I cannot feel this whilst riding but it can be seen when bike is parked up and others have noticed. Has anyone else found this?

So my 2019 already has heated grips but I take my life in my hands when I’m trying to turn them on . Contemplating some new Five GTX Heated gloves and maybe eventually try some aftermarket heated grips with safer activation design if gloves don’t deliver. My gut feeling is they might perform better by heating back of the hands but battery time might be limiting factor? Time will tell.

I do like the grooved headlight trim .

New seat! Top sellerie. Haven’t ridden yet. And nice front brake reservoir cover.

Definitely talk to a reputable suspension shop imo. The springs in my last three bikes needed doing but I’m a fat bastard @ 107 kg.

Was hoping someone had tried the KLIM Adventure GTX as they are allegedly good for walking in but they are hella expensive! Was thinking wearing goretex boots good for walking in would save packing extra boots on tour. A stars web getting good comments.

Finished fitting Ohlins today, will put up a video of my efforts to date once I am happy the bike is displayable lol.

Can you move your arse back in the seat to stretch the legs a bit or is one sort of locked in to a possie? I have read elsewhere that someone couldn't push their butt back with the Corbin. I do this alot on longer rides.

Did he wear Sidi?

Great post and yes, as the fine art of maintenance goes out the window so does the requirements. I do remember a mechanic mate telling me this some years back now you mention it. My worry is introducing a small hole to an alloy casting might cause fatigue cracking if not drilled and tapped in the correct place.

So, showing my age here but have always been sad that grease points gradually disappeared. Any brains trust fitted nipples to appropriate places? Maybe rear linkages etc?

If my Michelin 6 ever wear out lol, im going to try Dunlop Q3+.

Am going Evotech for that, got it covered pardon the pun.
