Motorcycle Valeting

Hmm I have to say the bloke I bought my tiger off had it washed twice a year by a pro (if there is such a thing lol) £130! And despite it having 12000 miles on boy it looked like it just left Hinckley ! I'm kinda thinking an annual or biannual treat too. Much better if done by a trusted service than...

Re: Cheap camera

Re: Textile trousers

@kwak yeah I get you. Also it wears out pretty fast! It's too anti slip for a seat and so can't see it lasting too long. Although damp still shouldn't get through the goretex I would have hoped given its crucial position of that path. Most obvious place for getting wet :)

Re: Textile trousers

Hi Rich.. Same here on the snapped shin d30 armour on my old Rukka trousers. Bloody £40 replacement. I also found wet crotch on trousers but put that down to condensation having been base level Rukka goretex. I should have tried washing like you said. I never knew that. Anyway I just got a set of ne...

Re: Diamond Rearsets

I've a set.. No bad at all. Very good value. I come off in the Nurburgring and they grinded nicely. Good extra crash bung lol. Only minor issue is the exposed steel bearings start to look rusty if left out and not maintained
