Hi all... (principia)

[fjones]

Welcome to KB and to riding. I have PM'd FJones about the Bikers Bible. I hope you are able to get a copy, as it is really good. Send me a PM sometime and we can team up to do a ride. Get Crashe to tell you about my first time on the Motorway!! Hehehehehe!

All the best with the practice.

Yeah was going to go to borders tonight, but I am just too damn lazy. We are definately going for a decent ride including the motorway this weekend!

No worries...Plenty of time!!!

Crashe, after our ride the other day, we adjusted my right brake so that it was closer to the throttle. It was so much better! I think it frustrates me that the bikes are brand new, and they obviously weren’t checked over before being sent out to us. I guess what can I expect for the price we paid for them. Fjones is ordering a maintenance manual, and we'll get the break fluid sorted out when that comes.

It shouldnt matter what price you paid for it. They are brand new bikes.

They should have been checked out before they even left the shop.....
They are assembled in the shop when they are taken out of the crate.

Good to hear that the brake lever is now in a better position for you....
it will make it a lot easier for you, when having to brake.

As to the brake fluid levels in both brand new bikes being at different levels...
shocked me..... your one was at the lowest level....... and Joe's just slightly higher...
You had only done 104kms and Joe 140kms at the time.

This is why i should sell the GN, and get a Ducati 1098. And to confuse Johnny Law, i'll put the GN250 emblem back on the Ducati.....

Noone will ever know.....
