    Another great night last night, practising our riding.

    Next week we will be doing some carpark work at Mitre 10 Takanini before we put it into practice on the roads.

    its a tractor, crank start it just like the old massey ferg..... you remember them?

    No doubt you would have noticed the cold, maybe not with all those thermals on.
    Batteries suffer in the cold and if you arent riding that much (vs summer) then the battery may not be maintained as well as it might.

    If it was me I would have tried the CTEK and seen if the battery could have held its charge.

    I would only replace the battery, but if you are replacing everything (All Booked) then you should be safe.


    Something for everyone to think about - How is your battery condition, can you jump start your bike? by yourself? (I can)

    Spokes - the Scorpio can and has been kick started, quite an advantage when the battery goes flat.

    Sis, you asked for info regarding accidents and what people should do.
    Below is a KB thread with some info that might be of some use. (I am still developing my own list)
    see post #9

    Its actually a good read for info on group rides - for all abilities.

    Holeshot or Experience motorcycles should have a set at the parts desk, They come in two different sets -The plugs that go in the bars are different sizes for different Vins as they changed the bars . Did you want sizes as I can measure up mine if you want ?

    I want ones in black that will make new faster and sexier. I also want them to help me see a bit I guess.

    Oh, rebuilt the master and slave cylinder in the Bandit so it has a clutch again.
