... the Isle of Man trip seems to have died a death. I can't make it anyway as FIL's health is worsening. <br/> <br/> I still have the day booked off though so I'll spend the day on the bike around Wales. The kids should be back at school so I'm hoping the roads will be quiet after 9am. <br/> <br/> ...

whats the point of it though ? I didnt think the end result was all that good , certainly not worth all the time and effort spent on it , unless he was being paid to do it .

... has been doing it for a few years and always seems to enjoy spending time with his grandchildren. My step mum is nice enough. We've never bonded though. She's one of those classic middle class types who does loads of work for various charities and likes to be seen doing her thing in the community. ...

Just wondering if anyone had tried them and if they were any good? The guy in J+S reckoned they were brilliant but then he is trying to sell me something. £120 for the Shoei one though!

They have stopped doing extended warranties currently. It was said to be a legal issue with the company providing the cover ( even though it was factory backed) but there is no info on anything new to replace it. My extended warranty runs out next June so that was why i have started looking ...

... box section is true first. Maybe on an inspectiontion table or some other guaranteed flat surface. And not overtighten the bolt. Looks well setup though. Why do sssa not need this out of cuirosity? I have to admit in all my bikes i only ever checked once on the daytona using the marks on swing ...

... my Multi in on. Thoughts are: The engine is a corker. Smoother than mine but with an induction roar similar to the Panigales. Pulls like a train, though doesn't feel quite as fast as mine but i think that's down to it being much smoother. The speedo said my mind was playing tricks. :D Colour dash ...

The SP has a fabricated and machined swing arm Andy and susequently the standard marks are pretty dam accurate (didn't know this this until I used the jig to verify it though) but it's useful on the kawasaki who are not Honda accurate with there markings.

will be going to see this. only 1 showing in a local cinema to me though!

The only reason I'm wearing jeans at the moment is that it doesn't fell right wearing shorts into the office. Others do though.. As soon as I get home the shorts are back on.

I personally can't see Ducati making a triple as there sports bike roots are well and truly lodged in the vtwin camp. Happy to be proved wrong though. Regards middleweight etc I think that's exactly what the 899 is and you have to see it more as middleweight power and performance rather than ...

I would have put money on them not upping the capacity as it would put it too close to litre bike. Do like the sound of a 955 triple though. The 899 has 148 bhp so they must be looking at 160-170 next?

Looking forward to seeing your new tank all in Kwacky. I've managed to take off my CBR400 and Daytona tanks off. Never did the ZX6R though. I remember the other 2 being very easy no problems what so ever

Welcome to the site. Love the loft looks absolutely amazing. Kwacky that June ride would be fab - I will have to pass on the off roaring though (I'm a real short arse and can't touch the floor on these off roaders so there's only one way ofs stopping...falling!! [FACE WITH TEARS OF JOY]

Sorry it seems to be only windows 7 and 8.1 at the moment but extending the offer to vista has been mentioned. If your laptop is slow reinstalling windows can work wonders though.

Your going to have do your own dirty work soon Duke

That wing suit lark is a bit hairy, not saying the zip wire isn't but becoming a large stain on a mountain is distinctly possible with that hobby, iirc there's been one or two top guys wiped in the last year doing stuff like that. Either would be a huge rush for me though!
