Service Time

Bike was booked for a service at Honda Sandton today (14th March 2014) exactly a year into ownership. Picked it up a little earlier, the bill came to R1035.96. Doesn't seem like much was done, mostly oil and oil filter and the gasket for that, then some general lubing. Hopefully we're good to go for another year then! I'd like to strip her down sometime and perform a proper lubing, something I always do regularly to my off-road bikes. There will of course be lots of pictures when that happens.

It never rains, it pours

It's been a while since I updated this so here goes. It's been raining here a lot lately so I have been caught in a good few rainy rides. The little Honda has held up fine. The roads are not doing so well though, there are serious potholes forming everywhere. I have hit a few and the Honda seems to cope with them just fine, they're almost irrelevant which is awesome. Fuel consumption is still around the 3.5L /100 km mark.

On Friday is the second service and exactly one year of ownership so I will be reporting back on that once it's done.
