Re: Mr Postman
... very little or nothing. Their is a huge number of potential votes to be exploited by the other parties here. It wont kick in until this time next year but i guarantee once it does there will be uproar amongst those running their own small business when they are told their 2016 tax bill especially ...

Re: The new improved fitness thread
I'll need more than martial arts to save me if my wife thought I was doing that kind of sparring with an 18 year old

Re: The new improved fitness thread
I'm used to receiving scratches from my 20 year old girlfriend after 'sparring' ;) I'm starting to get abs !! My reduced food intake and increased cardio and heavier weights is having an effect. I managed 6sets x 8reps close grip incline chest ...

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
... the shower without the head and pump water through each of them. Could not believe how bad they were! I've clearly done this at the wrong time of year because now I am going to be freezing while riding as the vents on the NEXX are very good. I should of done this at the beginning of summer!!

Getting over my Christmas Grinch.
The kids have never had a real tree because of my wife's allergies, so we could this year. I always had real trees growing up and just feels right.

Re: Private Plates
I saw a plate on a Ford Puma that appealed to me; F1 NGY I nearly brought a plate for Deany last year, but my bigotry against personal plates made me hesitate, so by the time I had decided to splash out the £ 250 someone else had already brought it. So, no D4 DNY for Deany, ...

Re: The Biking Friday Five
... Worst company I have ever had to deal with and still no better from what I read and hear. 2. Either the trip down to Misano on the bike last year or learning proper knee down on track. 3. Definitely being able to drift the rear round corners. Loved doing that speedway day even if it's not ...

Similar views here, plus a good mate had K31TH B on his van for years, but he got stopped twice in a year and was told unless he restored it to the legal spacing he was going to lose it, he flogged it and the money is going towards his dream car, a '53 F100 ...

Re: Ducati launching 9 new models for 2016
I don't disagree, Cookie. I've looked back at the miles i have done this year and aside from the Germany trip i do wonder if the expense justifies the cost even though i love my bikes. I need to make some changes to my work/life balance before buying any new ...

Re: Ducati launching 9 new models for 2016
I think the days of quantum leaps forward are over for the time being as they all have to be able to pass Euro 4 limits this time next year to be allowed to be sold. I think it has the lower swingarm pivot point and revised bodywork as per the 1299 and a little more torque and power but otherwise ...

Re: 2016 Yamaha R1
I reckon all the 2016 bikes will have the problem rectified.
One of the reasons I wouldn't buy a new model in its first year is most end up with a recall of some kind or another.
