Roy Beniston tours 2015

Please note the regular Monday evening meet scheduled for 8th September will NOT be the usual ride from Asda lorry park.

Instead we will be having an informal get together at Squires Cafe Bar, Newthorpe Lane, South Milford, Leeds LS25 5LX (that’s Squires of Sherburn to most of us I think).

Looking forward to seeing you there.

Thanks to Martin and Mike for a great ride out on Sunday (17 August 2014). Thoroughly enjoyed by all.

Please take a few minutes to read through these minutes. They contain items of interest to all regarding the future of the club and we welcome comments from any member with a point of view.

IAM Insight August 2014

HAB Member Lee Edwards is selling his Kawasaki; here are the details:

This is a great bike and has been a lot of fun to own, it’s time for a change though so sadly it has to go.

This bike was introduced by Kawasaki as a real racer on the road and it doesn’t disappoint – great handling and engine that just keeps going.

Here’s a list of extra’s added to this bike:
– Datatool System 3 Alarm
– Petal Brake Discs
– Braided Brake Lines
– Renthal Sprockets
– R&G Protection all-round (Bungs, Bar-Ends, Front Spindle, Rear Bobbins)
– Stubby Viper Exhaust (with baffle)
– Maxton Spring
– Double-Bubble Black Screen
– Stompgrips
– Tail Tidy
– LED Indicators
– Wired for Optimate

In the 2 years I’ve owned it the bike has had 3 services, the last being in June 2014, unfortunately the service book didn’t come with the bike but I have some receipts from the previous owner and receipts of the work I’ve had done.

In addition to the services I have had new chain and sprockets and the cam chain replaced last year and fitted new brake discs, pads, braided lines and fluids this year.

The Mot runs up to May 2015 and its taxed until the end of Feb 2015 and the bike has done 22,130 miles.

Unfortunately I had a slip on the bike in May so the bike has a scuff on the side fairing, a small mark on the seat unit and a small scuff on the exhaust can. Luckily the R&G Protection kept the damage to a minimum (the damaged R&G parts have all been replaced). There is also a small crack on the nose fairing where the previous owner has over-tightened a screen bolt. All these are easily repaired or lived with – I chose the latter.

Supplied with the bike will be the original standard exhaust, a seat cowl and a Haynes manual.

Asking price is £2700 ono

If you wish to come and view the bike then please drop me a line to lee@led-design.com or call 0790 992 0887

I’ve been informed that there are still places left on the Rider Skills Day at Croft on Weds 27th August. Anyone interested who hasn’t already booked should call the IAM Support Team in Chiswick on 0845 126 8600 or 0208 996 9600.
