Re: New Toy

... large roundabout near Brum city centre. Thankfully I did a 360 and missed everyone so I carried on as if nothing had happened. Fantastic car. They were awesome. I knew someone with one too. None of that traction control rubbish, just loads of uncontrollable turbo :)

Re: Oxford Protex Stretch Cover

... mine leaves my bike beautifully dry. Although it is joendirty inside because of the dirt on the bike, whoops! I think to be honest if these covers were to lift it wouldn't be worth that amount of cash. I got mine for less than 40quid because of a deal the sales lady was willing to go for (with ...

Re: New hoops. Metzeler Roadtec 01 Review

... I also I need to give the bike a bit of a going over before pushing too much. Relube the chain. etc. I cleaned up the brakes a little whilst they were off but pads are low so could do with replacements. Must remember to pump brakes after working on them. The first junction at the end of my room ...

Nice ride in this morning. The roads were dry and it wasn't cold. Plus there was a stunning sunrise to witness.

... I strongly believe that helmets must be fit for purpose. I expect that you've had a few offs in your time.? Well, I certainly have. If helmets were not compulsory there is a chance that I would have elected to ride without a lid a good number of times. What I can say without any doubt is that ...

3k out of Supercorsas?

Blimey, I used to get 2500-3000 out of Diablo Rosso Corsas, I thought Supercorsas were supposed to do about a 1/3rd less than those.

Re: New hoops. Metzeler Roadtec 01 Review

I think the k3 were about 3000. Supercorsas would have been similar.
St seemed closer to 3500 to 4000 but never took actual logs

Re: New hoops. Metzeler Roadtec 01 Review

Not cheap.

Pilot road 4 fitted to loose wheels was going to be around 245

These were 248 fitted but he said should be about 255+ fitted once the part is setup correctly. He did them at a deal for me.... Supposedly. Might be true but ive not checked them out elsewhere

It's 250km / 1 hr 20 min flight. Does it on one fuel load. We do have refueling facilities On board though if need be.

I've done the platform to Darwin direct in the heli before, there were some security concerns in Timor at the time. That was 2.5 hrs/520 km.

Partly, sure. But the Beeb shows were surely never dependent on record sales? They were artist showcases.

Some of us still buy music.
