25th JULY 2018 - YOSHI

YOSHIMURA

We all like to add a bit of bling to our bikes don't we? Well sadly, I can't afford to replace two perfectly good silencers with expensive Yoshimuras, so I did the next best thing and fitted two Yoshi decals instead, LOL.



24th JULY 2018 - PAINT FLAKING OFF!!

DISAPPOINTING PAINT FINISH ON ENGINE

After a short ride-out the other day, I arrived home and washed the bike. During that process, I noticed some paint had come off the front lower part of the engine, so I lay down on the floor and discovered that the whole sump pan was effected. I could hardly believe my eyes!


I emailed Richard at Blackpool Honda with the photos and told him that I was very disappointed to see this happen on a brand new premium priced bike after just 500 miles! I was also concerned that they wouldn't have one of these in stock in time for the bike's 1st Service (which would mean me having two 80-mile round trips to get the service and the warranty work done.

Anyway, that aside, I enjoyed my day out around Lancashire and North Yorkshire....
