So just over a year of owning my 2nd whitey (and 7th TDM) she's all but finished. 

 

Been out this afternoon and perfect in every way. New tyres makes such a difference.

 

Cat's being Cat's it's normally time to sell, but not this time. This one is a keeper!

You need to complete a full set of white lights, you do. LEDs rule!

I'm told you need a special LED light as the abs effects it, doesn't work?

I'm told you need a special LED light as the abs effects it, doesn't work?

If anything, it is the other way round. The ABS light occasionally comes on without any good reason, but it could be me applying a sudden strong force beyond the trigger point. AFAIK the rear light works 100%, and I check it regularly, for both sidelight and brake. I'm not aware of the ABS light flashing having any effect on the rear light.

 

The ABS light hasn't misbehaved for quite a while, and stayed off the whole time on track events at Knockhill. If it triggers for a sudden heavy application it stays on until the ignition is switched off. Dunno if that is correct or not.

 

 - and LEDs save bulb replacement hassle.

 

Here's what it looks like on taillight, not brake, in daylight.

Oye! Catsbum. Bike looks stunning. What size Delkevic end cans have you got on. I notice the baffles are in, too noisy out?

 

Also, i might be wrong but is the bike jacked up on the back? If so what size dog bones.

 

Cheers, thanks for that.
