I wasn't gunna ride in 40 degree heat last week so she'll have to wait till next one for a gallop. And you wouldn't read about it, it's 13 and raining today! You can't say we lack variety in weather down here eh, so fingers crossed I get a ride in next week. Cheers Cheers 4

To most of the world it looks like the end of riding season, but here in S. FL. it's just the Live Oaks pushing off the old leaves with new, and the massive amount of pollen that comes with it. That's only 2 days worth. 2

Seven months to South'n Spine raid XXI . . . no pressure. Hey, but pressure is what "pressure angles" do best! 4

audiomick Posted February 16 Posted February 16 22 hours ago, guzzler said: it's 13 and raining today! And another thing: it is currently, admittedly in the middle of the night, about -5°C here, and the weather forecast is promising 0°C maximum daytime and down to -9°C minimum during the night for the next 4 or 5 days. So stop your whingeing, and get on your bike. 1 1
guzzler Posted February 16 Posted February 16 Mate, the rain stopped but temp stayed round 15 ish.... Perfect for a ride! But I got conned into taking the minister to the bi-annual Poowong market today, so the bike remains in the carport with her blanket.... bugger! At least the Burek ( Fried Turkish bread with mince and onion filling ) was great and a local band kept us entertained so it wasn't all bad.... Cheers 3 1

They don't appear to be std V11 Sport fork legs and or you have the axle in back to front. On V11 43mm forks the axle nut is always on the LHS and the axle is inserted from the RHS. Those look like the later 43mm forks with the 25mm hollow axle but in the wrong way around? Phil Edit......Yep just checked. Looks like you bike has Aprilia RSV1000 forks.
