I spent a couple of hours today cleaning the tiger. It was extremely dirty following my trip in Ireland.

Today I’ve been grovelling around on the floor in the rain fixing my bike… Don’t worry, nothing serious! Not ECU this time, though that did give me a heart stopping moment when I switched on bike and got funny set of lights lit on the instrument panel, and trying to connect TuneECU didn’t work. Fortunately heart started beating again when I deactivated the engine kill switch :laughing:

No, today’s main problem was that when doing final bike checks ready for tomorrow I noticed the left pannier rail was loose. This was caused by me fitting the airbox wrong a couple of days ago (they share a bolt) so I set about remedying this. Unfortunately, in fiddling to do this I lost a top hat spacer into bowels on bike. Couldn’t see it, and it didn’t emerged when moving, tilting or bouncing bike. Then I remembered I had a magnet-on-a-stick thing so went fishing blindly and got a bite, phew!

Back to the job I was intending for today which was packing and working out the correct method and order to attach things tomorrow.

packing

One pannier bag is full of tools and just-in-case bike stuff. Probably should only take half that but there’s space. (Assuming I haven’t forgotten something important that I remember later.)

My take on that is that when you’ve got the space, take whatever you think you might need. Better safe than sorry.

Safe travels tomorrow, and enjoy every minute!

I agree. Also means I’ll have things to help the guy’s I’m going with or random strangers. E.g. I have an air pump which with tubed tyres isn’t going to be of much help to me. (I definitely won’t be fixing a puncture at the roadside on my bike!)

Thanks!
