    Welcome to the forum @Gsxrman1100 That's a nice collection of bikes, are they current, or past ownership. Obviously the Nighthawk is current. Love the look of that XS 850, when I was a teenager, my friends uncle kept one (XS250) in the garage of my friends house, used to have a sneaky sit astride it now and again.

    @Grumpy Old Git Crikey, hope you didn't get flooded.

    @curlylegend Deserted roads, 14 degrees and a beach sounds like a great holiday, but you actually live there. Very nice indeed.

    That's a proper tidy machine!

    Hey @ThomasDC welcome back to motorbikes, and welcome to the forum. The single, best piece of advice is as above, get a proper workshop manual. It really is worth paying for the book, and not a cheap eBay download. The cheap downloads are photocopies of the real thing, and are terrible quality.

    @Hairsy Could you borrow a Windows laptop? Just to rule out that virtual serial layer.

    Hi @Dammt, that's a very narrowly targeted question. However, someone may have them and offer an opinion. Meanwhile, welcome to the forum.

    Sadly, we're also trying that too. A few years ago we did get one at Boots the chemist. We're all killing retail, even pharmacies.

    I'd have it if I could get it. Every time we try to book it, there's no availability.

    There's a few threads on here. Here's one for starters. Also, does your insurance specify that the bike has to be garaged over night? Chained under cover around the back is way better than at the front. Thieves love 125's https://themotorbikeforum.co.uk/topic/52445-storage-size/

    Firstly, it's good to hear Sue is up and about, secondly, have a great, and cidertastic afternoon.

    This is so important, and often very much overlooked, so it seems you've already made a good decision. For a long time Chinese bikes were thought to be badly made with little support for maintenance, but it seems this is rapidly changing with manufacturers like Voge and CF Moto leading the way. Congratulations on your purchase @laughsatcats, welcome to the forum, and welcome to biking

    Is that why we always see them with tin foil, or a piece of ply over the grille?

    Wow! Thank goodness for quick thinking, well done for the save. "Happy birthday darling, sorry about the charred remains of the garage" Probably wouldn't have gone down well.
