    Rear wheel paint

    I have now put a ceramic coating on them so hopefully that will solve the problem. I know the Tracer was made to budget but not putting a decent finish on a wheel seems a bit mean.

    Rear wheel paint

    Anyone here having problems with the blue paint coming off the rear wheel when cleaning. I only use bike products when cleaning and no alloy wheel cleaners and a canuba polish to finish off, but find the paint rubbing off on to the polishing cloth. My dealer is not really interested and I'm...

    Loose Screen Adjusters

    I took the adjusters off and fitted bicycle seat stem clamps. You can adjust the tension of these and the screen stays put.

    Skid plate

    New seat

    Have just replaced the OEM with a Sargent heated seat. Not had a chance to try it out yet but it seems more substantial than the original. Will give a report once I've done a few miles.

    Pdm60

    I fitted a Fuzebox similar to the the pdm and connected to a brown wire at rear to light. Had to peel back insulation to get to it then soldered the new feed wire to it and re-taped up. Run camera from it and soon a heated front seat. SAT NAV front camera and fogs run from spare connectors under...

    Clean bike

    I have just got one of the best non biking piece of kit you can have and if you haven't got one I suggest you do. We all know cleaning bikes for some can be a chore but for others quite therapeutic plus it gives us the chance to check it over and make sure everything is ok. So after a good...
