What did you buy today ???

[grog]

Can Am Spyder? Mate has one sitting in his shed, years now. Always telling me to take home and use, just havent got around to it, dont like trikes or sidecars. Hope your Wife enjoys.

One of the bmw club members has one, she was knocked off her bike and smashed her hip, so  cant sit on a regular bike anymore, the CanAm let's her still ride but sits more like a car seat. Horses for courses

Grog, it not a spider, it's a Ryker, same idea but smaller and only has a 900cc engine, the spider uses a 1330cc.

Vevor tyre inflator arrived today. Looks feels good quality, large battery size.Fits easily under 14 seat.Great price from Vevor direct, over $100 some tool shops.

Checked on Amazon, they want 70 bucks for the same thing

Bought a Ravaconda tyre changer, pretty easy to use and packs into a small bag, pretty well made no rim damage so all in all a success

Bought a pair of DrRider Nordic riding pants. Includes remoavle thermal liner and zip to attach to the jacket.

Seems well made, has CE approved armour built into knees and hips. Vent zips and extra long in the leg so it goes over my boots.

I've always had the jeans but seems these pants  would be more suited to longer rides. Waterproof too.

Will report back how they go.

Nice Eric,  I've had those in the past myself, bit restrictive with the lining in for me.  One thing you'll have to watch though is, after a short while they shrink, I reckon it's the UV rays & rain / getting them wet.    They just get tighter & tighter to put on & ya end up getting some new ones.  Wish they'd pre-shrink them when they made them.

thanks, I tried on the 36R (my jeans size) and they were too small, wemt up to 38R and much better.  Will have to moderate the...ahem....'nutritional' intake when on rides to minimise "shrinking".

Ordered new bar end mirrors. Have used same Chinese type around 13 yrs. Current ones just chrome& bolt rust, paint gone off a bit. Still work perfectly, about my 4 th set, only one had imperfect glass, got a free pair from them.Pretty damn good for around $25 pair.I cant see how Rizoma etc are any better for 10x price🤷

No need to send it that far, just send it to me. I wash my vehicles once a year, whether they need it or not.

Oberon clutch slave cylinder, My slave cylinder did have a rebuild kit fitted last year but has never been a great shift even with a new clutch line, I'll report if it feels different/better.
