Fine choice sir.

Insurance renewal came yesterday. £250 fully comp including legal and leather + lid cover. Still amazes me that it's cheaper insuring a custom bike over a modified bike (cool)

Who was that with D6? I'm going to look into this come renewal time.

Bikesure, have a look in dealers and steelers sure there is a discount offer in there.

I was really impressed that they actually spent the time to find the best possible easy of insuring my bike, not just looking at a list on a computer screen.

I got my tankslap stickers to put on my track bike

Don't forget the photos when they're on.

These landed into my possesion today. Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk

A book about Yogi philosophy.

Not the Yellowstone bear.

My large microfiber towel for the Exmoor trip in a couple of weeks. It's massive but folds up so small, great for the trip

Some PPI forms to fill in. I'm not sure if I've ever had it but a company will do the work and they'll only take a cut if they recover any money.

Renthal grips, what an utter T@wt to fit!

I found it easier to cut the old ones off then put the new ones in very hot water.

30% + VAT usually

25% for the company I'm using.

Bit better I suppose. You're a lawyer, couldn't someone do you some legal sounding letters on headed paper from your firm? Save you some money.

After a bit of swearing I stuck a terminal driver down the end and squirted some ptfe up it. Then after more swearing I used some hair spray to get the new ones on.

I would get the sack if I did that. I'm not allowed to pretend that the firm I work for is acting on my behalf.

That and I'm too lazy to do it myself. The way I see it is that I'm getting 75% of the money I don't currently have (if I get anything).

These firms are only in it for the money and they only get paid if they get a return, so they're more likely to push the banks.
