Looking into potentially purchasing one of these. I know Duke has the bumpstop one but has anyone else got one and got any comment or advice on them ? http://www.bumpstop.co.uk/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; @ Duke - How secure is the bike when installed ? Is it as good as...

BT are much cheaper and you will get the motogp coverage which is excellent.

Sky have a lot more channel's that BT but if there not the ones you watch then it doesn't really matter.

I could just leave my bikes at your house then

As you know it was pure agony switching to virgin but now I have it i impressed with both the TV and broadband.

Much better than sky which surprisingly I didn't think would be the case.

OK excuse lack of PC knowledge is 54.45 Mbps good ?

I know what you mean.

Only problem is wait and the price goes up.

The bike weighs the same however the tyre sits, so two pressure points would surely mean half the weight spread between the two? Or is that too easy?

Totally agree

Very good point. I don't think so but will. Check. I have unlimited cover on garage content but think motor vehicles are the only exception to being part of the contents covered.

£240 on eBay Duke. Should I push for a discount on buying two ?

You done a matching clutch mc Duke ?

Got a link to the drift ? Sounds a good tool to own

While there are 2 pressure points the contact area is probably smaller, which would intensify the pressure would it not?

@Duke have you experienced this problem ?

Cheers Duke I will read up on those.

Good to hear you have a bump stop and recommend it.

Jon I have yet to find an insurance policy that will cover muliptle bikes and cover an agreed value. If you know of one please let me know.

D6Nutz wrote:Won't that also flat spot the tyre if you don't keep taking it in and out to keep the pressure points changing regularly?

No more than leaving the bike standing on any floor.

In fact it may improve things as the tyre will have 2 contact patches to spread the load instead of just the one.

I guess thats a fair comment. However it does get thatcham approval so I assume that is as it prohibits bike theft for a defined amount of time perhaps 5 minutes or similar which I think is some industry standard. Nothing is un-nickable its just how long you can delay the process and unbolting an ax...

I presume you ride the bike into it and it holds it upright then you have to slap a paddock stand in at the back? No you just ride it in and fix a chain round the wheel and front stand. No need for a paddock stand the front stand keeps the bike stable. Its like what you see at the NEC on the show b...

Seen this and like the idea. What do you think.

Cheers for the comments and advice. @D6Nutz - Thing is with the SP the insurance will not cover its true value as its worth well over double book price and thats why I really don't want it going missing. In comparsion the Blade has got about a £1500 of bling fitted which is not the end of the world ...

Did a stupid thing yesterday and added up how much bling I have put on my SP2 over the years and it came to just over £8000 That made me think its going to cost me £15000 to replace it if it went missing and even though the mods are declared the insurance are never going to pay out the full £15000 s...
