Roxter ones on ebay. Less than £30 delivered. They are differently branded oxford ones, they even turn up occasionally with Oxford branded stuff in the box.

Apart from being knocked unconscious for a fair time, my caberg did it's job and no head injuries in a big crash. It stayed closed despite being fairly externally battered.

Heated grips and muffs, keep warm and dry, heated insoles and a heater vest thing. Nice and toasty.

Don't fall into the exercise trap. Couch potato all the way.

Maybe it was a crappy bit of road. Some collected water and it's game over. Yes, too fast for that particular piece of un maintained 10ft piece of road but how do you tell?

I've used caberg flip helmets for years, always comfy and suit me. 5* sharp rated and survived a big off a couple of weeks ago after making quite obvious contact with the road. It knocked me out but have absolutely no injuries to my head. It was time to replace it anyway, nearly a year old but I didn't plan on doing it this way.

If there is anything specific you want, give me a shout. I can do cut vinyl or full colour printed stickers to suit. Whatever size you need to cover it with.

.

If it's something low powered, don't worry about a relay, just take the live from the brake light switch supply. It'll only be live with ignition on and will be fused via the bike system.

It has to be in resaleable condition. Would you buy a helmet with the new stickers and tags missing?

Toad / Datatool Snitcher.

Insurance doesn't cover a broken key unless you paid for key cover. You can buy broken key extraction kits. Using both bits you can get a key cut if you don't have a spare to copy. I can't see where you are but anywhere near salisbury and I'll get it out for you.

I use a basic but reliable cyclone alarm via ebay for under £30 and a Datatool Snitcher which texts me if anyone tampers with it. Disk lock and a cover on it, so far so good.

Generally it's ok but if in a newer build property it may be prohibited under the terms of planning. This would show up on the deeds. Ask the neighbours, someone will know.

Or do a ohm test with meter to see if the earth is ok.

When it's cold (to avoid covering yourself with boiling water) take the radiator cap off and start the bike, rev it and you'll see the water rushing about and likely the level will drop a bit when revved. This shows your pump is fine, if the pump wasn't working it wouldn't take many minutes long to boil up. Put a meter on the terminals of the fan switch and run it to see if it switches when hot enough, problem being that the fan won't come on while you are going this, best to put a test light between the output of the switch while still connected and the battery and see if it comes on at all. Sounds like the head gasket could be stuffed, this could show by making the hoses hard by pressurising the system when running and would likely make water exit the radiator filler swiftly when the cap is off while running. Boiling up a bike is a swift way to a screwed head gasket so if it's not this, you need to sort it before it is.

Decent shoes work be be better, his feet would sweat less.

Any truly waterproof camera will mist up. If it has damp inside this is what happens, with any brand. You can buy anti fog inserts that attract the moisture and stop the fogging. I use a gopro on my lid a lot and never had any issues with neck or it causing my head to tip back.you probably need to use it more to build up your neck muscle.

You always get horror stories about bad handling yet I'm yet to find anyone who has suffered this. I've had mixed tyres on various bikes many times and I've never had any ill handling problems. I have no issues or hesitation having different brands front/rear.

The security thing is bullshit. Telling you to take your helmet off while stood at the till isn't going to be stopping robberies. Is a robber going to take it off? All they are doing is losing their self custom. A robber will rob regardless, a sign on the door saying no helmets is of no use at all.

When they get 50p to deliver a parcel there is a good chance of problems. The problem these days is people want a £30 service for £5 If you pay a tenner for a delivery service you get a £10 delivery service.

They don't even teach how to use indicators, what hope is there of passing on legal requirements.

It's no worse than anything else. At 70 it says 76 on the clocks.

Taking the sat nav on a track? Of course, I wouldn't want to go the wrong way.

It's probably got a rev limiter on it which stops you destroying the engine trying to get 100mph out of it. Also. the displayed 75 mph is likely a real world 60/65mph, speedos are accepted to read higher than actual speed. Strap a sat nav to it and try again, see the difference. My GSXR shows 175 on the speedo when you are doing 150 on the sat nav
