Re: Blipbox - Autoblipper/QS

... real benefits of it but from my current experience I don't feel the need to get one. Also, this isn't a new technology - it has been around for years as one of the World Supersport (James Towesland??) had an autoblipper on his R6 and it apparently was like riding a Moto2 bike with how it was ...

Re: Pet Dog Stalemate

I'm a bit biased as I have 6, 2 Great Danes, 2 Pugs, 1 labrador and a Terrier Cross, haven't had a holiday in years, but not just the dogs as I have 4 pigs, 20 ducks, 14 hens and a South African Leopard Tortoise. It is total commitment but I work from home, on the odd occasion ...

Kawasaki have been pioneering that for a few years Duke. They reckon new tc systems will go this way for road bikes soon or later.

I agree. Leave them all to it. We went to Sharm 3 years ago and through that airport. It is terrible. Sharm as a resort it a shit hole anyway. And full (and I mean full) of obnoxious Russians. I went 20 years ago and it was a nice, clean reasonable ...

Re: Lorenzo denied say in Rossi case

Wsbk used to be extremely popular in the UK ten years ago probably because of foggy. I have no idea why it currently isn't popular as Brits are completely dominating the class.

Re: Hourly pay rate of...

It's just highly frustrating knowing that I won't be able to buy a house for years and years on my own. My girlfriend is disabled and is subsequently unreliable to hold down a job so she has limited income.

It all stems down to everything increasing in price but wages don't go up to match it.

Well I found out the helmet I use most of the time was 3 years old yesterday! I'd love a Red/Green/White Shoei NXR Mystify helmet but I can't afford it. I also need gloves as there is a hole in the thumb (these gloves are over 4 years old). After White/Black ...

Ear plugs

After 10 years....I've finally lost one of my Ultimate Ear squidgy ear plugs. Done me well, but they no longer fitted as they once did.

Anyone got any recommendations on what to get next??
