Re: Deletion of Private Messages (Sucessfully)

Problem solved.
What I was doing after going through the deletion was "going back" to previous pages. I have tried closing down the forum after the deletion then re-opening and that works fine.

Re: Best oil for your bike

I do recall investigating use of a good quality "Car" oil in my RT's but found difficulty in sourcing one with the required 15w-50 viscosity.

Re: Time for New Brake Pads

Be careful using the original Brembo shims on after market pads such as EBC. Check overall thickness dimension. You can have a problem !!.
