On his bike Jules :Flip:.....sorry mate had to be done

Where have you got the camera mounted

I do believe Mike now has the camera mounted from the side of the radiator, or should that be from the top bolt, that holds on the radiator cover / protector.

:thumbup:

Nice one Mike! Not quite as "full on" as some of the other ones you've sent me lol So I guess it takes new tires, rain and huge white arrows painted on the road to get the tape off your speedo eh? lol
Look like you had fun, at least there wasn't much in the way of traffic!

that last camera angle was sweet. One question which im sure already has been answered.

What camera are you using?

I suspect you also use your bike for commuting and ride during all weather like myself?

Since people learned of me getting a new bike all I have heard from people is lets go for a ride but "not if its raining".

LOL. Yup. If I was to sit around waiting for that perfect 27 degree, windless trafficless, daytime ride I'd still be on my first set of tires.

That makes two of us at least then. I rode everyday last winter averaging 500kms per week.

 

[aussiejules]

what mike just like me after 4 years, and they still have tread, to think when i had to commute to work got riden every day rain gail or shine, now iv done the same km's in 3 years as i did in its first.

 

[Wolfman]

500km's a week is about average for me, have had bike 12 months, have done 23000km's...bike has been off the road for about 12 of those weeks....crash & mods, so it's actually probably more like 570km's a week....but that aint taking into account all the long trips!

Oh who cares...just ride when you can boys.
