Crash!

No, not me, but right in front of me. Riding home on a dual carriageway with a central reservation. I'm in lane 2 of 2 but I'm to the left. Traffic is heavy but moving at about 50mph. There's an HGV to my left and just in front of me, so I'm close to it's ...

Re: Performance Bikes magazine

Still the best read by a long way. Interesting article inside the BMW Motarrad factory this month. They test run their bikes on a rolling road/dyno without the bike strapped down. The writers are very approachable to. I've emailed a few ...

Re: Motorbike cleaner

Agree about the washing up liquid- way too harsh. It's good if you're doing a thorough cleaning though and you're going to acf after and wax the bodywork. A good quality car wax on the painted bodywork makes cleaning so much easier then next time.

Re: Star Wars - Episode VIII - The Last Jedi

You guys understand this way more than I do.. I pretty much take the film at face value.

I've seen all the Harry Potter films so many times now and still pick stuff up that I never noticed before :D

Toast causes cancer

I give up.

Cooking food to a brown colour will kill you. That's the latest.

We'll ignore the shite sprayed on our foods or pumped into our air and water, we'll blame toast.

Way to go.

Ride it round to a tyre factors that does truck stuff and bung a fiver in their tea fund, their impact guns will handle in excess of 2000nm. (Your MT workshop should sort this for half a slab of beer)

Shame you're not down my way Itchy, I've got a Milwaukee 3/4 drive gun that'll piss that in the van.
