indoors

My battery has died a couple of times recently, after leaving the bike for around 2 weeks each time. Whn straight off the battery charger I get 12.7v across the terminals, this drops within an hour to 12.5v, where it has now stayed for a couple of days (indoors). Immediately after charging it...

Just got back from a bit of a blast, had my 2001 dommie parked up while i popped into a cafe for a much needed brew, only to return to my bike on its side on the floor, so either someones pushed it over or reversed into it and knocked it over so i will be on the look out for the right side(rear...

Was spending some time this afternoon doing some housekeeping on the computers in the house..... Easily sidetracked I found myself on YouTube This made me think what the hell am I doing indoors. ! Good advert for the GS YouTube - BMW GS 1200 ADVENTURESCHOOL try to watch it without wanting to...

Yours truly. Set off to return the Triumph Tiger I had to review. Left the zebra there on Friday and have been trying out the Triumph ever since. Today I went to drop the Tiger back and pick up the zebra. Got to Watford Gap services before I realised I had changed jackets and the keys to the...

Why cant people who cant drive in the snow stay indoors or not take the car i have lost count of the people who i seen sliding across the roads today because they put it in first gear and floor it to get going and wonder why they don't move all they do is stop other people from getting anywhere...

Hi guys, I just got a 2001 Transalp - my first serious bike and so far I 'm very happy with it. To secure it I bought an abus disc lock (with alarm) plus an almax chain and anchor but unfortunately the bike will not fit in my front garden which means it stays on the road and the anchor is not...

When I parked up the TA back in December, I took the battery (wet variety) out and kept it indoors. I have trickle-charged it twice: once every 6 weeks. I would charge it to about 13 volts on the multimeter, then put it back in storage. When I did it again yesterday the voltage had dropped...

Well, the SLR just aced it's MOT today:cheers:. More a credit to it's previous owner,than to me, as I haven't done a tap to it since I got it. Still, we're almost road legal now, as soon as I get my amended policy In the post, I can get it taxed. On order already, a larger Givi screen and, if I...

Hi, just got hold of these and I'm going to put them on my trusty '85 XR250; will add some pics and video link when they're on. They're practically new as the chap I bought them off put a Pro-Circuit system on his CRF bike when he got it new and kept the Honda system as a spare. It's purely...

Been out all morning, got back at 12.45 but wanted to check my radiator fan was working, having had a tinker, so left the bike running to get it up to temperature. Even revving it a bit, that took ten minutes before the fan came on (At least it works:thumbup:) Got indoors to find two RM...

Capacious, eh! Really, who needs a parking pain in the arse 4x4 and a barking Labrador when there’s an M/c’s only space out front of the supermarket door. That broad pillion piece providing an extra wide resting place for a big box full of domestic necessities. Shopping chores sorted, The...

Hi all. I joined the org the other day with the intention of seeking advice and eventually buying 2 Transalps and heading off for a few months next year with her indoors. Events overtook me and I grabbed what seems a bargain this morning - a 2000W with only 10k miles, a top box, panniers and...

Ok guys so I have had my XR650 for 6 months now and the nearest I have got to off road is riding across a campsite to get to my pitch!! This wouldn't normally be a problem except that the only reason 'er indoors agreed to the bike was if I predominantly spent the time green laning (she is under...

Part of me feels that I'm opening a can of worms here but no matter... I currently use a Khyam Igloo (now called Eiger/ Ranger) I love the tent, however it's a little long when packed and sits across the back seat on top of the panniers. So I'm looking for a tent that can tick the following...
