Hi, Mightyjoe.

Hi Joe, sorry to hear about the spill. Glad you are both okay and welcome to the site.

Hey & welcome

Hi Joe

Welcome aboard.
Most of us have had an off or drop that we'd love to undo.
Some more than others

I think the trick is to learn from others mistakes and not make any yourself....or at least limit them to little mistakes.

A case of do as I say and not as I do here I think.

Enjoy the new steed and ride safe.

Cheers
Rosco

yeah wise words there Rosco its defo less painful to learn from others mistakes

so my top tip is don't use the back brake on cold days

Hello & Welcome

Welcome from another newby

Hi and Welcome

Hi Joe, welcome.

Hello and welcome!

I believe the recommendation is to use 70/30 front & back brakes in the wet/slippery conditions.

I wouldn't dismiss it, as it can help you a hell of a lot mid-corner where you don't want to be touching the front

Enjoy!

Hello and welcome

Hello and welcome not been here long, been riding bikes since 78 had a break but back now and the Cat is the most powerful I have owned. How about some pictures of yours?

Still working on it not pc friendly!!!!!! Need to be on computer not my phone

I couldn't make it work on phone. There is a guide on how to post pictures in the pinned posts at the top of the lounge.
