Re: What do you want to vent about today?

The LibDems telling us what they were going to do if elected to govern this country is the same as me telling you what I'm going to do to Dita von Teese.

Of course he doesn't. The Tories were blatant about what their intentions were before they had a majority, when Nick "I'm not pointless, honest" Clegg and his useless lot were supposedly holding them in check. Now, they're just ...

Re: Head or Heart?

My zx6r is an ongoing project and I've replaced loads of parts on it, including bolts. But I did that on the D600 and the 1050 Speed Triple as well as the CBR600rr and there were no build quality issues on the Honda. I like stainless steel bolts on a bike.

A couple of them were glorious. Really nice bikes, if you like the older kit.

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??

... whizzing past cars stuck in queues of traffic. Yeah, it was raining a bit, but so what? A little windy, too - I couldn't help noticing that there were less motorbikes on the roads this morning. Weird, because all the cyclists were out.

Braved the weather and rode it to work.

Good job as well because the motorways around Brum were more clogged up than a Glaswegian's arteries.

Re: The Redhead appreciation thread (keep it SFW)

Re: Head or Heart?

I don't think there are any particular horror stories about the 2010 Daytona as a lot of minor issues were ironed out in the 2009 update. It is quite stiff and tall though if you're a bit short! Just noticed you've already tried one so what are you waiting for lol?

Re: Head or Heart?

If it were me the 675 for the noise but as Kwacky says there isn't enough difference to make the choice anything other than which one would you want to open the garage door for and see it waiting for you.

Plus you have the best Triumph dealer in the UK not far from you in Stoke.

When you posted "refresh", I thought we were talking new big end shells & new rings etc.. 8.5k miles isn't even run in yet for a Honda IMHO,

Re: What do you want to vent about today?

It's a UK cultural thing, we take people who are really good at their job and make them managers. So now they're not doing the job they were good at and they're given little or no management training.

Most other countries train people to be managers

Annoyingly the first boyfriends both our girls brought home were really nice! They may surprise you.

Sadly both of them are not with them anymore.

Ummmmm, actually my point was that those were (possible factors) that could have enabled them to avoid "getting what they deserve"
Anyway, unlikely we'd ever know if that were the caseanyway IMHO.

Re: How to get away with hit and run

I suspect it's a leased car not a hire car as there were two driver that had access to it. Him and his partner, not that that should make any difference. This loop hole is used a lot to get off speeding fines so the 6 points and £150 is probably devised to counter that not a hit and run.
