Hi All,
Looking for some advice from the mechanically minded, please...
In October I decided to upgrade my brake pads - installed a set of Ferodo sintered. I really liked them, I felt the initial bite was better and had better feedback from the front of the bike.
In November my bike went for...
Spent a bit of time Saturday while it was raining outside cutting out the useless plastic ridge to open up the underseat storage for the disc lock & making a rear mud flap to help protect the rear shock from some of the road crud.
I bought a GIVI quick lock tank bag for the Tracer last week and installed it (I think the tank fitting kit is BF 23).

Hi there,
