    Spotted Rob this morning!

    Hi Rob, I know it was you because there is not another S10 even remotely like yours! You were going around the roundabout on the B4067 by the Mond factory and the Mond golf course heading up the valley at precisely 10:45am with another blue bike, (Yamaha?) in tow. ;)

    Cerakote anyone?

    I am thinking about getting my exhaust Cerakoted, just wondering if anyone on this Forum has done this or had any experience of Cerakote? If I go ahead, then it won’t be immediately, but it is on my wish list at the moment.

    Engine coolant temperature

    Nothing quite like opening a can of worms is there, so here we go! One of the things I notice about flashed ECUs is lowering the temperature that the cooling fan kicks in. Does anyone have a definitive reason why lowering the temperature that the cooling fan kicks in is a beneficial given that...

    Well, it was good to see Rob, AKA Bimota at Tesco fuel station in Pontardawe. I missed my mates in Neath and called into the Owl’s Nest in Llandovery but didn’t see you there so off I went and then spotted Rob again on the M4 but we were going in opposite directions! We will have to synchronise...

    Re-spoking your S10 wheels

    I posted this after seeing the Excel rimmed rear wheel for sale on here and I didn’t want to hi-jack the For Sale thread so I am starting a fresh thread. Seeing your wheel inspired me to find out about changing my S10’s rims and so I emailed a very experienced and well respected wheel-builder...

    What DON’T you like about your S10?

    Maybe what don’t you like is a bit strong so maybe I should include what would you change if you could. So here goes, this is the one thing that I would like to change and it is……. The wheels! If I could, I would have a pair of cast wheels for mine, (I don‘t ride it off-road you see and cast...

    Portable rechargeable tyre pump

    I have just bought a Xiaomi portable and rechargeable tyre pump. What a cracking piece of kit! Apparently it will inflate 8 car tyres on one charge and many more motorcycle or bicycle tyres. It is solidly built but nice and compact to fit easily into a top box or side case. You simply screw it...
