So I did a little plastic welding today on my side fairings, sanded down the welded joints and sanded out the scratches and a then wrapped it with a black carbon fibre finish wrap. Also replaced the sliders with an old one I had in storage for my old bike. The red doesn't fit Simba but she has to manage it for now! After and before pics... 2 Likes

Clutch cable and Clutch lever Was riding out to a meeting on Friday, while turning within the compound the clutch cable cut at the middle into almost equal parts, I conclude it's the point I had a cable tie hold it down to prevent it from rubbing against the ignition when turned fully left. Brought out my spare, installed and tested, there and the the clutch lever broke! At the point where the cable attached to the lever. Disassembled and glued the part together then reassembled and allowed to set. Next day went out with Simba and at about 8km into the trip the welded joints gave way!!🤬🤬 Had to push it off the road to business. Called for the lever no luck! Went to oyingbo couldn't find a replacement! I was left with two options 1. Weld the broken lever (couldn't be done same day in 3days) 2. Order the part online (would arrive in 4weeks) I went with option 3! Retrofit regular qlink/bajaj lever. Did this with a spare clutch lever I had at home. Voila! We are back on the road! 1 Like

One man has about 8-10 collections of power bikes on my street. His house always looks like bikers are doing meeting there. I will snap pics from afar when I'm passing there 2 Likes |

oweniwe:Same here. I have a guy that has 5 different collections of my favorite dream bikes. I have a 250r and I have never beaten him in a race. Even when he's riding his lowest cc which is a Taro 400r. He is probably the only one with a 2018 Ninja H2 in the whole of Ondo state. Whenever I want to envy him, I pinch myself cos I don't even know what he does for a living. 😂 2 Likes |

Kelvin30286063: You have a 250cc bike, not 300cc and you'll use the HF112. I'm currently out of stock. Fanfare oil M-4T+ 10W40 is your oil. Don't use regular automotive oil as your engine and gearbox shares the same oil.

Kelvin30286063: How do you want to beat a 400cc in the hands of an experienced rider with a 250cc? Never compare yourself with anyone based on what you see, you don't know their story! 1 Like |

Trip to gombe The trip was an interesting one! Total distance from Lagos to Gombe was about 1,280km. From Gombe to my house was 1,230km Total distance covered during the trip was about 2,610km Bike mine was Simba (BMW F800ST) Ride partner BMW K1300S Challenges - Ride partner couldn't wait for me, joined another group - rode through a heavy blinding rain that caused... - my fuel pump controller to die at lokoja - ride partner had several tyre issues on the road - ride partner had a bad front bearing on our way back - some overzealous security operatives Instead of going through Epe I went through the 3rd mainland bridge to meet with my ride partner, the plan was to hit Jos that night, on getting to the meet point he had left with another group. So I continued jejely on my own and at my pace! On get https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEthq7GgOJA 1 Like 1 Share |
