Welcome to the forum @md01jm Hopefully you'll get the answers you need

Nothing to laugh about, just shows you're a decent person.

If you're picking up a bike from the dealer, take a bottle of this with you. It really is superb! By the time you get home it will have added that needed zing to the fuel. I use it in my petrol grounds maintenance tools for leaving over winter, and I can pretty much guarantee they'll start first pull come the spring. I also put it in my bike, but didn't need to because I couldn't leave it it alone for long enough https://www.screwfix.com/p/no-nonsense-fuel-additive-250ml/9631x

I think it's just Sportsbikeshop that sponsor.

Welcome to the forum @Paul F That's a good selection you have there!

@Mickly Even the other chap is wiping the tears away.... What a machine though!

Good morning bikers

I've just registered with MRA, and used the web based app to create a few routes, it's bloody brilliant!! So whether using PC or Mac, or Android tablet, all you have to do is login to find your saved routes etc. There's even a choice of export formats, and as well uploading via USB (install the driver part of the app) you can share via link etc. The scenic roundtour is excellent, select a starting (which is also the finish) point, select how many kilometres you want to travel and it will just generate a selection.

Isn't the Scottish summer and winter the same amount of wind and rain, just marginally warmer in the summer?

Haven't you been at sea for the whole summer?

That's great to read @rob m, cheers

I ride when it's dry all year. Don't mind the cold, but as above, not in icy conditions.

I'm going to check mine now.. .

Good morning bikers, ya daft lot

And the chocolate is pretty weird too....

What about the "run" switch?

Happy birthday @ShouldKnowBetter

Good morning nutters

Flippin eck, what a day!

That's a proper sprain, even a week later it looks very swollen and sore. Hope it heals quickly

Nope, it's excruciatingly inept

WTF?!

Out of desperation to just get her between my legs, I just went out for an hour. Phenomenal difference in my front brake pressure now that I've replaced the front disks. I don't like riding at weekends, it's how one ends up with square tyres, it's too busy, but I was desperate and the weather is about to change Got to say, I was grinning like a Cheshire cat when I started her up, and I'm still buzzing an hour later, it's been two weeks since our trip to and from Germany, can't wait to get back.

Wow!! Not bad for 56 years old, and no dents in the tank. Even the down-pipes look reasonable.
