More plastic fantastic.

wow, you know there's nothing going on when the most I have to report is replacing a plastic indicator (some ding-dong car driver backed into the Honda when it was parked):


Let's salvage some of it just for laughs...


And on with some new spares:


I also replaced the left hand grip, which was looking a bit tatty:

It never ceases to surprise me how satisfying little jobs like these can be...

Dakar 2014

Guys! You guys! The Dakar rally is on, right now! Head on over to http://www.dakar.com/index_DAKus.html and your local sports broadcaster to check it out. As usual, the bikes (and trucks) are the ones to watch. Obviously KTM, but also BMW, Gas-Gas, Sherco, Husqvarna, Beta, and all of the Japanese big four are taking up the challenge, with Honda unleashing their brand new CRF 450 Rally. That's the one I'll be keeping an eye on...

Plastic fantastic.

My buddy Keith has an Aprilia heat seeking rocket RSV 1000 that needed a new panel. After a long worldwide search, he finally found it: go bolt that sucker on!
