Enjoying the Sunshine

After being cooped up inside for the past couple of weeks feeling crook it was nice to escape and get out and enjoy the sunshine.  The calendar says that winter started on Saturday, and the sun was out.  I’m outta here.! Today there was no real plan.  Just a ride in the sunshine. Okay the…

Lighting up the SV

With the handling of the little SV now transformed with sparkling new Wilbers suspension, it’s time to look at the next thing to fix / upgrade.

Emma has always complained about the lack lustre light on her SV.  With the help of Provision Lighting we have upgraded to a LED insert whcih has made a huge improvement.

Just Going For A Ride

Walking out the door at 3:15 last Saturday morning I briefly thought about grabbing my electric vest but as it was going to be a minimum of 2 degrees C it shouldn’t be too bad.

For the next hour and a half the temp hovered between 0 and 3 degrees. Maybe I should have grabbed that vest.

Dad to the Rescue

After the rear shock on my daughter’s Suzuki SV650 sheared off at the base we set about upgrading the suspension on her bike. With the help of Melbourne suspension specialists “Spension R Us” we upgraded to a 50mm lowered Wilbers shock and progressive springs up front, transforming the handling of the bike.

Joyous

If there was one word that best describes my daughter Megan’s wedding it would be joyous.

The day was perfect for an outside wedding. Goldcreek Station was the perfect location – so close to Canberra but felt a million miles from the city.  And Red Photography was fantastic at capturing the special day for us.

Screen Test

My attempts to find the best screen for ZX14R have seen me experiment with a range of screens with varying sucess from the Laminar Lip, a few different double bubble, the Zery Gravity touring screen, and finally the MRA touring screen.
