Re: Head or Heart?

... 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 about 60 miss daisy miles today. It's in mint condition for a 6 year old bike, clearly been looked after. The headers look like ...

Re: Head or Heart?

At least it isn't like a Suzuki where you have to have the clutch in to start it. you do on the Daytona 600 too. I hadn't started it in about a year and tried, wouldn't start. Checked the whole electrical system, pulled the starter switch apart and cleaned it (known problem) tested the relay. ...

Re: Weekend plans

... the front is. Having the oil changed and the plugs and filters done too, cos why not whilst it's there? Easier than me disposing of the filthy, 2 year old oil. Sunday, some footie matches with the lads round. Oh, and I'm on call all weekend, so all of that is paid. Yay.

... can add anything between £30 and £70 to the premium. LEI is a wate of space and money and is 90% profit (to the tune of over £200 million) every year to the insurers.
