  1. Do what everyone says: -1, +2 will make it a proper tool. If your paint is pulling off then it's likely a respray - why not just rip it off and re-do the while lot?
  2. I going to show this to my wife to prove it happens some times.
  3. Think you got that the wrong way round Stu - dash said 28, speed trap said 41 means huge sprocket on the front and tiny one on the rear. That would account for the shit acceleration. The PO probably wanted max top end bragging rights. Using a theoretical ratio to attain the claimed figures (which would no way physically fit), the top speed would be 250mph. No wonder you beat it on track as it would be bollocks to ride and would accelerate like a wheezy snail.
  4. But... I don't use FaceBook.
  5. +1 Most of the above. I bought a GPZ900 immediately after passing my test. Within half an hour I was trying to max it on the motorway (no speed cameras back in them days). Couldn't spend too long doing it as I had to be back at school for afternoon lessons.
  6. What are "friends"?
  7. Yeah, I remember you telling me about that just after you lost it.
  8. What did you put in TC? I used to stick the Halfords ultra brilliance bulbs in because I got them cheap. The current car is HiD which are superb on full beam but not exactly phenomenal on dipped.
  9. In all fairness, he looked like he'd done a quick shop and the bike bit was nowhere near full. He also failed to rise to the taunting of some grubby oik which amusingly annoyed them.
  10. I is wrong.
  11. My eyez iz gud! No. 4:
  12. I can't really see properly but I reckon that rubbery bush should locate in the plastic clip that I think I can see on the top of the mudguard.
  13. Hold up. £20 is not free.

    New VED

    Exactly. Just because you want to spend £40k+ on a car. Plus it's an extra £310/year for 5 years. It'll be interesting to see how many manufacturers offer a base spec at £39999 when the new policy comes in.
  15. Finally, an up side to living in Milton Keynes!

    New VED

    Looks like it's cars - couldn't find anything on bikes from a quick scan. The whole thing seems like another means-tested afair which seems to be the in thing at the mo.

    New VED

    Might have been on here before but I just saw the brilliant new VED rules. Just seems like yet another way to tax the nob of people who work hard and want decent things. Grumble grumble.
  18. Have you heard back from them yet Beefs?
  19. Looks good! I've got a soft spot for the Varadero.
  20. Must have missed that bit!
  21. With a beastly (nearly) 7hp it'd go like a rocket ship! How do they manage to get such low power out of it? Mind you, $600.
  22. "It's not like he was racing through the city at 70mph or something". Classic.
  23. I really can't type what I'm thinking .... back peddling? billy? jackanory? It's alright everyone, I've got loads of earplugs and a couple of pairs of heavy duty defenders for those next door to painkiller/OH. Looks like we can all stay at yours after all.

    Vietnam

    Not Vietnam but I hired a scootypuff in Thailand for a week or so for a few dollars/day and bimbled about the place solo.
  25. Why fanny about with eBay when acetone if freely available from builder's merchants as UPVC cleaner and Boots/Superdrug etc as nail varnish remover. Alternatively, nail varnish remover can be stolen from your wife/girlfriend/father.
