Only five toes Fred ? that's pretty unusual in Ponty isn't it ?

I bought a Nitron for my previous DR650, they are very well made

I thought you were poor, have you started charging the DBM’s for your ‘services’

Well im now back home with said new goggles, luckily I dodged the rain for the most part but its started raining here now.

@boboneleg just want to pick your brains abit so it rides fine though abit snatchy at low rpm and the idle when warm is rather high 1800-2200rpm and the it isnt sharp when i rev it takes a couple of seconds for it to return to idle and seems to sometimes run on 3 cyl. 

I'm starting to wonder if the injectors are abit bunged up or something, I know it needs a service (plugs and oil+filter) but I wouldn't expect that to fiddle with the fueling with exception of the spark plugs but they were replaced in the service it had just before I bought it. 

Would you recommend some fuel additive or something or dive right in with a full service?

You could try a fuel additive and the go and thrash it , see if it’s any better.

Sounds like it could be injectors or tps ?

whats the tyres you got on sled like on the road bob ?

 

Those are Bridgestone Battlecross AX41 , they're fine on the road but as with any knobbly tyre you have to watch out for overbanding and stuff like that.

Hey Fred, it looks like we've got us a gay trail rider ............

The cider place next door also gave me a Cornish Cock 

Twas a lovely spring morning so I dug the Sled out of hibernation and rode it to work , pretty nippy though

Looking 4ward to a Ride or Workshop report on that beast....

He might ride it about a mile if you're lucky but you definitely ain't going to see him twirling spanners

I'm pretty sure none of them looked like that though Marcel

Pete wouldn't have this kind of dilemma if he would just take the time to school himself on how a Wrench works!

It's called a spanner over here Scott, which is kind of ironic as Pete is a bit of a spanner

Why don't you have a bash at setting up your own bike night, just need a friendly spot with parking and set up a face book group.   Build it and they will come.  

He won't because he doesn't like people.  He even broke Dell's leg when he went there just to get rid of him ................

We met this chap (Andy) on a trail in the Peaks while Sandro was fixing his puncture.  His XR650L was a bloody lovely bike 

What we need a is a poll 

Washed the bike, packing the camping equipment away .  Sat here having a coffee now as I feel f*cked

Or a couple of midgets. 

I like your thinking 

This is what you want Pete, you don't go far and there's hours of fun to be had on this .  Plus you'll probably get 150 mpg
