I have had plenty of experience with the Athena 170. Bad quality casting and bad overall performance. There was even a hole in my cylinder which leaked coolant. Athena wouldn't bother. Don't buy if you are looking for performance.

RE: Break in new cylinder
O my god what a relief! Athena is up and running! Jesus Christ I have never ever been so afraid of something going wrong. Hopefully the worst part is over. Still afraid a circlip will come loose and mess EVERYTHING up. But, I've done my best, bring on the summer

I stripped a cheap pair and polished the aluminium. Pretty satisfied. -

Ordered the xx14. Seems good enough. Have to engineer some sort or holder under the seat so I can bring it easily.

Equipment for mc storage outside
Might have to store my bike outside during a couple of weeks. Thinking of buying a cover and an alarm. Can you guys give me any recommendations? I already have a couple of beefy chains.
