  1. So Trump isn't allowed on the forum then as he lives in the wind and spills trumps all the time if he is out then I'm in Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  2. Bring him to the rally next year and he can hang out with my kiddo. She might smack him though but I'm hoping the trying to murder every other baby is just a faze with her..... Lol you want to hope that's just a faze haha. Hopefully I'll be able to get to things like the rally ect and get him into it too Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  3. Thanks you two. Been up the hospital tonight, they could have come home today but I talked her into letting me have the bed to myself one more night She is still far too uncomfortable and in pain and Elijah is only just taking a proper feed and still got a lot of mucus which causes him to choke and have to catch his breath which is scary to say the least apparently is because he was delivered by c section and all the mucus ect wasn't squeezed out while travelling down the birth canal. So place of mind they are in there one more night. He meet his grandparents tonight and has another set on Saturday to meet when they travel up from Luton So much for never having kids and not being paternal this lil fella is a right gem http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20161020/3771b032557624a91ce3bc49ea6cdef9.jpg he even has my hairstyle round the sides and not much on top haha Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

  6. Well it's taken some time but we have finally made a 2016 minion he will be ready for light duties such as car washing sweeping floors and general dogs body duties In around 5 or 6 years which isn't the most efficient but we will be able to train and hone skills custom to our needs and as he grows older the duties can increase and our workload around the house can slow down Please be upstanding for our very own little treasure Elijah weighing in at a whopping 6lb this morning at half 9. Both mum and baby are doing well still in hospital as she had a c section but coming home in the next couple of days all being well http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20161019/a2d1b755a3b8968cbb6529de0ea56e3c.jpg Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

  8. Accepted units are combined because it's what people are used to and universally approved and used Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro
  9. Your a star pal thanks for that, none of the pdf's ever work when I click on them but this one does brill! Will come in very handy thanks again Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro
  10. I warmed it and left it draining while tilting the bike every now and then. I never even found that the other day all the manuals won't let me download them. Think I'm gonna finally buy a Haynes manual Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  11. If you ask my mate he will prob say that's how it's supposed to be like his r6 I have told him it's shagged but he refused to believe, lol Stock unit someone has removed should be just fine as a replacement or there's plenty of upgraded parts out there Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro
  12. Rant warning********** Decided to service the bike the other day. Couldn't remember oil quantity from last service, looked on engine casing and it says 2200ml well that's handy Bike is gsxr k6 750 I had 600ml left in a bottle from last oil change so I go sportsbikeshop and buy 2l of oil and a filter. Get back drain oil remove filter go to install filter........ wrong! In store comps listed it wrong. Not a prob popped back swapped went and fitted. Poured in 2200ml of oil left for 5 mins and checked level, wasn't in sight glass so I keep topping up until I run out of oil, still not in sight glass. Shops now closed so I go online, its all American an they are talking quarts and random litreage (as us litre is less) best I could find was 2.9 litres not 2.2 Ring halfrauds but they don't stock the oil so go home in the car instead. Done the responsible thing when home and checked owners manual, which says 2.5l......... no! As I have 2.6 in there and it's barely at minimum. So bought another litre following dat topped off and got it to 2.9l in the end. Normally I just buy 4l and keep pouring until full but thought I would save some dosh and buy just enough. Well at least now I know but spoilt my plan of a ride out that night. How can the owners manual be wrong? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro
  13. Spot on. Licencing wouldn't help. Are the overstretched police going to stop dog walkers asking to see their licence? Of course not. And even if they did, and found the owner to not have a licence, what would they do? Impound the dog in the already overcrowded rescue centre? Or simply crush it like they do cars... My cat draws more blood from people than my dogs ever have or would. My cat should be on the dangerous dogs list. Mine too, my cats evil when she's playing, nothing malitous, but cats don't have a dangerous list. Trouble is this dangerous dog problem has been allowed to escalate so far that its past a remedy. I don't believe in dangerous breeds only irresponsible owners not socialising their dogs, miss treating or bad training/ training to be viscous. It's not the dogs fault yet thousands are destroyed every year and owners walk with a slap on the wrist. We have a staff and yorkie at my family home, me and my brother bought the staff when we lived there partly as a therapy dog for my step dad and it worked a treat, well behaved and a soppy family pet, and welcomed the hyper active, licky, happy yappy yorkie with open paws. He lays with my niece (5months) and lets her 'pet him' and I won't think twice about letting him near my lil one that should arrive next week because he has been raised right (now 8) I say euthanise the scummy tw**s that get the dogs for status symbols or that think a dog is actually for xmas Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro
  14. Perception of hazards and avoiding them comes with the territory of being on the road. I have closer calls daily yet it's not worth pulling up along side people. Do it to the wrong person in a 2 ton ramming tool and it won't matter who's in the wrong. Just enjoy the freedom learn what you can and when real close call comes thank the Lord above when you get in safe and sound. Bikers don't need any more camera warriors out there getting on cagers tits. Wear one by all means for documentation Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  15. I have pr3's on my gixer can't rate them enough they are a 2ct last ages, good grip and predictable Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  16. I ride all year round. You just have to adjust riding style for the conditions, think about your gear on the cold rides, can you be seen since its getting dark earlier? There's no harm in putting your foot down to test the surface while riding along to get an idea of grip ect. Key is keep it smooth! Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  17. Having alot of fun. Its as difficult as I thought it would be but i'm getting there. Going to try this for a few hours every week to get myself more relyant on foresight and observation than relying on a brake system that wont be the same whatever bike I have from here till the last day. Il make sure to gopro it next time so we can all have a laugh Good lad, it all gets easier the further you look ahead and pre empt what the other road users are going to do, mind reading is a valuable skill out there lol
  18. I want to add..... Fairplay unseen your taking this on the chin, many have come in asked for brutal honesty lost the plot and poppa smurf has had to hit the ban button. Look into something like bikesafe or a das course and you will be taught all the finer points. Trouble is on a cbt you may hve prior road usage but thats it a car ect and there is many differences. Try this...... Do a journey (maybe not a commute through central london) and try not to touch your brakes, this will teach you approach speed, judgment and forward planning
  19. Trouble is london is s**t for riding or driving. Everyone is as bad as everyone else and its just blind luck more than anything that people dont get killed or injured more than they do. You will learn either the hard or easy way but imo you need some hazard avoidance and defensive riding training. Piling along a road because you can doesnt mean you should, theres a time and place and better 5 mins late in this life than early in the next. Im not a squeaky clean rider, yes i speed and yes i have great fun out there but on country roads not through towns and cities
  20. I think their shape is they get narrower at the back IIRC. That's why the HJC is slack on you......it's for roundheads. Yh i dont have a round head lol, i use it for to and from work and the agv for the weekends now
  21. Agv head for me, my hjc is a bit slack on my head and next size down dont fit. I bought a ls2 for my first lid, £45 and not a bad helmet with all the stickers for safety. But wished i didnt order online as i could have done with a different size. Buy try and send back if wrong
