Tell me about it mate. Doesn't matter how much I spend on a cover, it still doesn't protect the bike like they're supposed to. Thats why it's now in Sharon's folks garage because of all this horrible weather. God I miss my bike
Not only that, but if I had £150 to splash out, I'd buy that racing stand from Sy!! |

swap them for stainless m8
when i clean my bike i prepare for the next week, wd 4 is a good product
and give it a good clean with it afterwards, except rubber bits and disks!
let the bike run for a bit, lets the wd40 get in the nooks and crannies !
clean and lube the chain ,, done
i clock up the miles m8 but thats all year ridding m8  |

Get a car.......
Mint 41k on the clock with a removable tow bar for track days......and it does 120mph and 50mpg
£180 fully comp £180 tax. Cheaper than a shed. And its got a heater and CD player
Leave the bike in the front room Sam. Mrs.Sam won't mind
