Re: Road rage incident

I honestly don't know what is wrong with some people. They are like Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. People who would otherwise be normal turn into nutters when behind the wheel and its on the increase if anything.

Road rage incident

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??

Took off all the road grime, cleaned up the chain, sprayed the breaks up and sprayed it with WD40 just to protect it a bit. Also played around with the tyre pressures a tad as they were over in flated! Must admit it looks fabulous now. Also booked a MOT too for later in the week

Re: Perks zx10r review

It will be that most likely then.

For some reason they have a little welded tap you need to tap of with a little chisel.

Wow, what a mess, that guy was real lucky. That's why so many Germans have been killed over the years at the TT, in a moment of excitement they have forgotten which side of the road they should be on !
