    New ride!

    Thats why i changed it, plus you get the gear indicator. I found i was more able to support myself on long rides with stomp grips on the tank, saves the shoulders and wrists a bit!

    Impeccable taste! What crash bungs have you got on there? R&G bungage. They were on the bike when i bought it. Best thing ive done to it so far is fitting the 07/08 clocks. http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff215/tuktuk_photo/Mobile%20Uploads/20150615_202211_zpsnawzlbfp.jpg

    Hi mate, nice bike, although i am biased... http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff215/tuktuk_photo/Mobile%20Uploads/20150626_190400_zpsohyknktv.jpg
  4. Just mirror, life saver, manouver.
  5. First sidecar race, one of the bikes dropped its oil over the start finish. They kept saying 20mins for about an hour, then asked fire brigade to hose it off but they never arrived so people just started leaving.
  6. Lee Johnson? http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff215/tuktuk_photo/Mobile%20Uploads/20150719_143230_zpsosbn56bg.jpg Dean Harrison? http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff215/tuktuk_photo/Mobile%20Uploads/20150719_143227_zpszvqn6olk.jpg Someone else http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff215/tuktuk_photo/Mobile%20Uploads/20150719_143106_zpscql71zx3.jpg
  7. Ah i see. I should have known as a good mate is a yorkshire man. Nobody else going then? Im heading down from Newcastle tomorrow with a mate, weather is looking pap but i cant wait! Il try and get some photos.
  8. Most definately trying it on!!
  9. First off, where did that name come from? Secondly, who is going? From what ive heard, racing is taking place on the Sunday only this time?
  10. Get yourself up to westgate hill mate, m and s or theres a shop at the very top on the right called proto or something along those lines. Also a place over in the metro centre j and s i think its called, near maplin.
  11. Its money i would rather be putting down on a panigale 899 or mv f3 800 but sense might prevail on this one!
  12. Cheers guys, i have the paper work out but its not clear (as if contracts ever are). I remember askig the salesman if paying off early would benefit me and he assured me it would, he kept repeating ''the monthly payments wont be reduced but the term of the contract will''. Il call tomorrow and see how much its going to sting.
  13. I bought a car on finance nearly 2 years ago now on a 48 month contract. Is there any financial benefit to paying this off 2 years early? Ie will the outstanding interest charges be excluded in the settlement fee? I want to know how things work before i call them to pay it off incase they try to persuade me that the original full payment is always due, surely there is incentive to settle early?
  14. Cheers guys. Il post up if I'm going to go down!
  15. Sounds good! Which of the big name riders will be racing? I heard Guy Martin mention in a press conference that he was pretty much finished for this year, I always thought the gold cup was one of his faves. Would love to see him there. I'd probably just be there for a single day, not a fan of camping lol. Is there generally a better day of the two or are they similar? Also what's parking like for car/bike? Not sure which I'd take. Sorry for all the questions lol.
  16. Which would you guys say is the better even to see, this or cock o the north? How do they differ? Will be my first ever visit to a road race.
  17. Excellent cheers scoot. As it turns out, I think he's a mate of my boss. Might try and get over tomorrow and see what can be done.
  18. Been hitting the gym hard lately! Chest shoulders and back are filling out and my suit was already a tight fit to start. Plus I want to fit my back protector in which is impossible atm. I'd buy a new suit but I've hardly worn this and I'm going to lose shed loads on it plus the cost of a new one probably exactly the same suit just larger. If I can get it modified for £100ish il be over the moon! Just can't see where they would expand it, but I need to speak to the pro's about that.
  19. My suit is getting uncomfortably tight and for a while I've been thinking of getting a new one until I found a website of an alterations service. Is this something anyone here has had done? I'm looking to have the chest opened up around 3-4 inches. Looks like it will cost £80-£120 which seems more than fair as I imagine it can be labour intensive. Just looking for experiences or recommendations!
  20. Sounds like Guy is happy with the BMW. He was looking well on last night's show. Hope its a good one for him.
  21. Matt black plus tinted visor for me. Depends how lively your other kit looks as the second design may suit better.
  22. Yeah just jacket and jeans needed mate. Got some sidi boots a while ago and have a couple pair of decent gloves. Just want a set of black leathers that arent covered in branding or patterns. Id like the alpinestars black shadow phantom i think its called but im sure the jacket alone is the same price or even more than the full rst kit.
  23. Theres a few places local which i can buy them from but they dont keep them in store and you have to order your size in. Think im going to have to try some of the tractech stuff and get sizes from those. Also cant find out if the back protector is removable or not?
  24. Has anyone came across the rst black series in any shops? Ive had to retire my dainese 1pc after wearing it about 5 times as it no longer fits and fancy the black series for the summer. Only none of the shops here seem to stock them in store and can only order in your size.
