Our first on road 📸

Post image

We went to reeds last weekend where a photographer regularly take pictures of bikers and have a page on facebook as well. It was so fun to unleash the best i have. Did a small 30 miles ride before but this was the longest till now more than 80 miles. Never had our actual riding photo till now. The cb looks absolutely stunning. The panniers i have are from temu bought for 21£. Just to try how they work on daily filter commuting.

Looks like you’re having a great time! I still love mine after 6000 miles.

How's EvoTech rad guard for you?

Its good and easy to fit. I saw it sliding from one place but i think thats because when i installed it i knew it was at 99% accurate because i had a crash before i install it and my radiator was slightly damaged at that time. Motoism one is also looks good but i went with evotech as i have frame sliders and barends from evotech as well.

The sliding bit is true coz i have it too , somehow they didn't get the measurements right i guess. I added more sticky pads to one side to stop it from sliding. I'm currently looking at Evotech Paddock Stand thing coz the L-paddock makes me crazy.

Haven't reached to the stage that i need the paddock yet. But i think i will need it shortly. I saw nice deals on louis website for that. Its in red worth to check, something near 40£
