Cracking day and really chuffed with the bike, need to sort the suspension out, new can and a tail tidy though. Not sure about the front end yet, brakes lovely but feels a bit weird/vague tipping in. Hard to say yet as I've not ridden a bike for nearly two years and only done ...

I'm pleased you liked it. But that didn't fit in with my joke.

Not sure in what way it looks less transformer than the MT10, though. In fact, not as nice looking to these eyes.

... seating position, agile handling, sufficient power, characterful engine, great looks, great sound The old ones did suffer with reliability issues though... QA was not something Ducati had heard of I believe

That x2. Hope you managed to get some rest and simultaneously sorted out the digs for 2016/17/18/19/20

Seriously though, happy birthday dude

... under a CFA (no win no fee) at no cost, and you will not get pushed into using a law firm recommended or advised by the insurers (even though it is now illegal they still do it), plus a no win no fee means that they are more likely to fight your corner because if they fail to win they ...

... that way. Someone will have to go to the cost and trouble to re-write them all, which will not happen overnight. Some solicitors will be quids in though. However as we live in a democracy, it's good that we can have all these views and that we are all entitled to express our opinions & our ...

... (plural). One policy for each bike. Both TPFT. I called them up and they had no record of my request for a single policy fully comp (even though the calls are recorded and they have to input the information into the computer to get the quotes). If I wanted fully comp and one policy it's ...

... locking a bike can be a hassle sometimes, but I would use every safety device you have for next few weeks. Good one on taking a pic of the van though.

Yeah I miss riding. My leathers are perforated and my textiles are shit though. I don't mind riding if the weather's a bit iffy but I do seem to do it less and less. Plus I HATE cleaning of any kind. My bike still has its noise pass test stickers on from Oulton ...

I like inception.. I thought I got it until I had a conversation with someone about it...

Awesome film that is though

I think it varies quite wildly from school to school, dependent on the area and so on... although I'm obviously not an expert, I do know teachers who teach classes of 45+. As for the tax thing, agree totally. Our tax laws are specifically designed to help big business ...

... people tell me our schools are underfunded and under resourced ,my daughters school has a teacher and teachers assistant per class and even though shes only in pre school she has been on loads of school trips non of which ive paid for.Where is the under funding and under resourcing ? sorry ...

... adjusting so I asked him how much it actually cost and paid that. I assume he replaced some and swapped others over. He does get shims cheap though, he worked on my SV650S previously and did the valves on that too. It's an old mate of mine who, due to circumstances, has had to give up the ...

Lots of those are turned around by the Out lobby. To what good end, though? "Yeah, greater human rights and better working conditions are terrible, aren't they?" Honestly, if Farage and Johnson and their braying idiot supporters have their way, ...

... some of the older ones to correct the adjustment. Which I assume they must have and this is what I did on my zx6r Where did you get this done though as sounds a bargain ? Can I ask what a recirc / reed valve is ? As not familiar with this on a 4 stroke and I like you like to do home servicing ...

Very nice bike. I keep getting tempted to buy a 675R even though I thought I'd had enough of sports bikes. But it just looks so good.

Looks like a corker [THUMBS UP SIGN] I'm going to be bike shopping in the coming months and as much as I loved my Daytonas and I love the look of the R's I just don't like the face down, arse up ergonomics of sportsbikes. Good luck to you in your purchase though.

Looks like a proper race machine. The seat might sting a bit though.

... vision, just this colossal geopolitical sulk... Actually, that pretty much hits the UKIP nail right squarely on the head. The politics of thought free grumpiness. The only arguments I have heard for out are : we give too much money to the EU (completely forgetting that we get far more ...

... bought an XW ring chain and 2 years later it's still like new, I don't think there's a single seized link I'll stick with a steel front sprocket though, that must take more abuse that the rear sprocket and it's smaller and sprung mass as opposed to the rear which is unsprung therefore the mass ...
