Thanks bud (y) It's WiFi only and I'll have to see if it drops the signal as it's connecting from about 25m away.

Quality isn't the best but I can't argue with the price of it. I have a Yi Dashcam too and am very happy with that. The mobile App is very easy to use too

2 cans of Muc-Off all weather Ceramic chain lube, it used to be called Endurance but it's the same stuff and at £6.99 each with free delivery it's a bit cheaper than I can get it locally.

Haha it's not great is it.

My subscription ends in 3 months and I won't be renewing (blush)

Very sad demise of the great PB mag (n)

Yep, I'm going to cancel as well. It's not for me.

Agree not for me either.

I'm sure it's great if restoring 80's bikes is your thing, but it's not a good partnership for PB imo.

Two different customer types and the cross over is probably not as wide as the editors of the two magazines had hoped.

I might buy the odd copy, but I won't be keeping an annual subscription which is a shame as had I've had PB mag on subscription for about 15 years.

Might pick up a coppy of fast bikes for a try.

Fast Bikes recently has focussed on the same shonky old 80s sportsbikes, but in an even worse way. I cant see Fast Bikes lasting much longer TBH.

I've only has a flick through while on the throne but didn't see much 80's content, a nice £4K superbike article (R1 vs Fireblade), quick review of Hondas new 650 duo, new Hypermotard and the KTM 690 SMC R. Also a workshop section written by professional bike mechanics.

Fast Bikes made me smile more than Practical 80's Sportsbikes...

An interphone Sport bluetooth headset for the helmet, a bit of a step up from £35 ebay specials... Ironically from eBay for just over £100 delivered from Italy.

Not the Postie, but picked these up from the Main Honda Dealer today.

Surprised to see a reference to Ducati on an offical genuine Honda part. The dealers is a solus Honda dealer too, so not like he has any interest in Ducati either.

Which model did you get Stonesie? I have a pair of the F3’s and they work really well. Only designed for rider and pillion, needed to go to a upgraded model for bike to bike, but I don’t need that option.

It's one of the new models called the sport.

It can connect up to 4 people and connects to all manufacturers. Should allow chats while on rides with my friends and phone calls, or just a bit of radio/music on motorway stints.

Ive picked up a break rewind tool. For £9 thought I'd try it. It's a weighty bit of kit and can see it doing the job but unsure if it will ruin the pistons. Suppose I've got to try it with careImage
