... on the frame sliders? Would have got gbracing but seeing as the Triumph ones are already on it... I have a horrible feeling that the Triumph ones were "field tested" not long after the Mk2 was released, and "failed to impress" (doh) I'll see if I can find the relevant thread ...

Crash bungs were invented to help protect the engine if the bike goes down on it's side and slides. That was the reason for them coming about. Saving the plastics is secondary, seeing as they cost racers about £200 a set and most ...

I had the GB racing covers they were good. I ordered them from the Kawasaki racing team so it had MSS Kawasaki on instead

... it just comes down to learning the job and when you have a routine you just fall into line. One thing that made me a tad nervous was the staff were all saying that they wouldn't be finishing until around 1130 last night I was lucky I was on a training shift so finished at 10!! If I find it ...

Worked late, which meant the roads were pretty much empty. Reduced the usual journey time by 20 minutes.

Monty, let me know what those Rizoma reservoirs and brackets are like. I suspect at those prices they're Chinese copies. The rizoma grips I got (copies) were very well made and in official looking boxes, but they soon lost their colour.

I know.. that's why I dropped everything to drive to Reading and pick them up before he sold them to someone else. They were straighter than my original wheels and the tyres had 2000miles left in them. Brake discs were in better condition too

Well yesterday was eventful. Grand parents were minding the kids, me and the missus were chilling and then we got a call to say the youngest had been injured at laser quest. They bring home and he looks like a pirate with a patch on his eye. We ...

Dying from a hangover. Was having a nice romantic meal at home with the missus as kids were at a sleep over. On the second bottle of wine the missus decided to have a downing it in one competition and it got very messy and silly from then on in. Suffering now but we ...

The Peaks is the same mate, this winter of shed loads of rain and freezing nights has ruined them. I hope not Monty. Seriously these roads were undriveable in a car at 10 mph and absolutely shocking condition. I m not taking a little stretch but mile after mile of proper pot holed road. It ...

A little spin down to Newland's this morning, still very cold but roads were dry, very enjoyable.
Tested out the bullet cam to make sure it is still working, so here is where I have been

... gear for 100miles that I was out for. Had a real squeaky bum moment at one time. Blasting along a road and around a bend panther other side there were 2 horses. I slammed on my breaks with engine breaking (2ND gear) and they turned in front of me. I'm so glad I was in the right part of the road ...

... legal aid in 2001 which was meanstested and available to only a select few. Switch it around. If you said that those who deal with LEI cases were the Ambulance chasers, I wouod agree with you 100% because they do not carry out the risk assesment, they take all the rubbish thrown at them by ...

... literally just ridden it home from Nottingham via a fry up in Matlock and given it a clean. Also didn't help that the brake and clutch perches were set almost horizontal so I had to take my hands off the bars to brake! Suspect Duke might have a point with the shitty touring tyres as the profile ...

... oil from their shale which is flooding the market with more oil than is needed. Common sense would dictate that the US would prefer oil prices were higher so they got more revenue from their oil but that doesn't seem to be the case if they are flooding and already over producing market. That ...

Well I tried Carole Nash and they were 4 times more expensive

My old gsxr 750 had bags of character the induction noise and engine was epic Shame they looked like shellsuits and were made of cheese My current zx10 is like a mental 600 to ride and has character by the bucket load I've read from a few owners of bmw s1000rrs that they feel a bit ...

Aye.

For example, if money were no object...



Oh my.

... everyone's conventions, we're doing what we want!" Basically a supermoto with superbike performance... If only the Chassis and handling were done by Triumph, the engine done by Aprilia (V4) and the Styling by MV Agusta then I believe it would be the perfect bike. Oh, and the build quality ...

... always been that way" does not mean it always should, nor that it is correct. Two days rest out of seven is pretty good IMHO. But if the days were more evenly distributed, then perhaps society may be inspired to be less lazy.?
