    The silo attachment for the rear seat is not an option I've ever seen in the UK...

    It's a flask to keep his drink (tea, coffee, soup?) warm for when he feels the chill!:yum

    I looked at the power graphs for before and after the whole "stage one de-cat air sensor thing" and to the Sprint GT the difference was entirely top end, it was almost bang on the line, the same up to 110 mph.By the time Im doing that Im thinking of decelerating so no real difference for me power wise only the Beowulf does sound lovely. To answer your question no. :)
    This is a Tiger, although you get the idea...

    1/2 day, cos I got screwed by my pinch bolt on the front fork.

    Now I have to get all the front end off, by lifting the bike off the wheel and forks, then putting the bike down some where gently then drilling out the pinch bolt.

    I tapped it, I plusgassed it, I tapped it 30 times, I thwacked it once,I left it, I tightened it. a little. then slackened it a little,then repeated it a lot, I SNAPPED IT.

    It snapped, who knows how, or why, it's snapped . IMG_20171113_123057766.jpg IMG_20171113_123130670.jpg

    Wheres the drink?

    So if the bolt was pinching the fork, with the shoulder of the bolt and the thread.Would I be correct to think the thread would only be on the back of the hole and would not cross to the front halve.
    So if thats the case then the pinch is off.That means I should be able to remove the wheel as normal?

    Yeah mate it's only threaded in one half and the bolt just passes through the other half
    The head of the bolt gives the pinch when tightened

    Excellent, If I can get the wheel off, then off comes the fork and I can get it down the road and put power tools on it. At least I aint trying to lift the bike off its forks.

    A zero mph, brute force, slack bolted, wheelie.

    The cinematic quality of that progamme is huge, the production values far out shine every other programme on the box.
