Re: what have you done to your bike today??

No it still up on the stand with back wheel off the floor, it will be checked and adjusted with it on the ground and me sat on it. The little CRF will have way less rear suspension travel than your Yam

Re: what have you done to your bike today??
Today I carried out an oil change on my K8 Suzuki DL1000, I try do it every 2,500/3,000 miles. And after ten years of my ScottOiler being fitted I removed it as it's too messy, I'd rather oil my chain manually to be honest.
I do love a moist chain!

Today so far, I’ve adapted a sat nav mount using materials to hand...
I reckon I’ve got about two hours to replace the chopping board in the kitchen.

Met up with a few guys and gals for breakfast at Fradley Junction before riding up through the Peaks/Woodhead Pass/Holme Moss etc for a couple of days walking with her indoors in the Yorkshire Dales.
Ideal trip for the GS but decided to pack light and take the Morini .

Re: what have you done to your bike today??
fitted a rim lock to my crf250L
fitted a new inner tube
punctured the new inner tube with sharp levers
(took a rest, meditated, thought of the meaning of life and things)
replaced inner tube
pumped up
waited for it to go down again
nope
so fitted it to the bike
