TBH I can't say that I m that surprised about your comment in relation to Kais as I've heard many horror story's over the years about them.

What exactly did you find unsatisfactory out of interest ?

It was a service, cant say Im too impresed, they had em for a while but theyre home now , just need to get hold the bushes to match the bike and we're in buisness, biggest problem i'm going to have is getting hold of decent loom, I though ...

Ditto above, hope all will be well with junior

Builders... It seems my house is worth a helluva lot less now than before the work commenced. It's safe to say that I am just a little naffed off with them and they are making me feel a teensy bit cross. (just as another bit fell off )

... so all those costs you would bear from your net income normally on a car you own, are discounted by your nominal tax rate, but then as you say you cop a bit of fringe benefit tax. over here after 3 years you can 'buy back' the car at a very reduced price, which is calculated on company ...

... I'm old school and save up for things I want and then buy them with my own money so I'm not adding 10% interest on evetything I buy. People might say they can't afford my strategy but of course they can. If you can afford £400 a month car loan repayments you can afford to save £400 its just you ...

... her time to get her feet under the table more. Neil H is awesome, i have always liked him as a racer and then as a pundit on EuroSport, honest, says it like it is, an ex-racer and has funny stories to tell. Keith and Julian, hmm, not too sure I'm fully bought into Keith yet, he is a knowledgeable ...

Liking the look of that, I would love to be able to do a project bike at some point..

I have to say, that bikes in pretty good nick considering it's been sat outside for that long..

... told me the cops had been out last summer due to **** wheeling up and down the main road it didn't encourage me to go and take a look. They did say any issues were now sorted though.

Didcot is fine for a meeting point.

Coming back we could ride around that area then split later on. I don't mind going further south towards say Yeovil then back up across towards Bath or Swindon way.

Those of us heading north can rattle through the Cotswolds via Cirencester then Stow

... she would be Paul's brolly girl on the grid for his races. It was filmed so look out for it on the coverage. It was a lovely moment! I must also say a mahoosive thanks to Itchy for coming to support us and for being a very spirited crew mate...we started running pit boards for the boys, and after ...

Cheers Nutz good info and very interesting. Every bike I have ever owned the manufacturer's say 36/42 which is way to high IMO. . When I had my Road Smarts fitted they told me they were 36/42 .. do reckon I should lower them fractionally ? I think they do that to make ...

Im sure my Kawasaki reccomends 26/42 in the manual and thats what Pirelli say for my tyres but I tend to run 34/36 when the suns out, I find it doesnt turn it quite as quick but I have much more confidence in the corner

... she is just asking scripted questions, even if the conversation goes onto a different direction she just reverts back to what she has been told to say, which I have no doubt is because she doesnt feel comfortable with the subject., theres no passion on her part from it, Also I wish Keith would ...

Cheers Nutz good info and very interesting. Every bike I have ever owned the manufacturer's say 36/42 which is way to high IMO. Good to hear Aprilla take a more sensible approach. I tend to run 34/38 if cold and 32/36 in warmer climes. After reading your post I think ...

Been out today for a couple of hours this morning and I must say Ive made the right choice with the RoadSmart 2's ....
even go as far to say that I think they're better than the Metzeler M5's which Ive had 3 sets of.

We know tyres are an emotive subject but I cant recommend these enough

... much better than the Dunlop's. Could it be as simple as tyre pressures with the M7 being set higher by the tyre monkey ? They're sales brochures say they have stiffened the carcass and it is quite evident. I've checked the tyre pressures and I even dropped them a few PSI (3-5) for the ride yesterday. ...

... booked a test on the S1000R to see how it compares, obviously both flat bar power houses, so it would be nice to see how they compare. Have to say BMW offered me two hours, where as the test on the Tuono was only 30 mins.... Either way a nice day for a ride on someone else's wheels :) I fancy ...

... wish to watch. Air field, can be cold and blowy, no real place to sit, no food or lunch, basic tea and coffee on offer, and a few biscuits. As I say a lot of wedge for that. Saying all that it was still a lot of fun, and doing with like minded people makes it fun and also competitive to say the ...
