Re: ukxc enduro - ashby this sunday

lol thanks

eerr no.. that headlight is rather pathetic.

Ill be installing one of the full hid set ups i sell in a new h4 bulb headlight and hid spotlight, with hid helmet light.

Very hid'd!

:D

Run that set up on the 1150gs when i do night time offroading on that and it works a treat.

mk3 choke rpms

One thing though, my mk2 used to run "chokey" when the choke was on.. but this mk3 starts to rev its nuts off when its warmed up and the chokes on, soon as its flicked off again it settles down again.
