ASBO (07/09/2008) Looks to me like everyone is a summer rider. Ive seen about 4 bikes out today and thats it. Nobody at the BCR meet, nobody atFinchingfield.... nobody anywhere apart from some loon on a moto pulling wheelies in the wet  Nah, I was out a few times this week. Nice-n-early mostly and out the other afternoon in the monsoon!  Wet riding is fun, the fun just happens at a bit slower speeds. Its still about balancing the grip to my bottle!  I think that MD was out one Sunday in the snow!  Now thats a good crack in the snow, been into quite a few bushes in the past because i couldnt stop, kept it uprite though just had to pull myself and the bike out the bush  MD said his chic wouldnt let him come and play, she put his leash on  Ive had to learn to not just pin it, gota get into just easing on the power when its wet. Well apart from when i wana get the front wheel up(not on the public road ofcourse)

| I love riding in the torrential rain, get on the pegs and go find some floods 
However on Saturday I was blasting down to a local flood-spot (in Oxford), ploughed right in, water went everywhere, and my damn pannier frame cracked under the thermal shock

Ive always praised KTM's id complain to them and see what they say.

Lol, it's a Touratech part, and it's the second one I've had... and I'll be having a chat come tomorrow, along with the already cracked sump guard.
