  1. Lowe's bike dumped itself in neutral. That's the cause of his crash. Lorenzo lost his front brakes.
  2. I use Drift. Great bits of kit and official BSB onboard cameras
  3. I'm using a Mammoth disc lock ATM. Certainly feels better than the old one I had.

    fambly

    I don't have any pics to hand (and not sure if I would be able to find pics if I wanted either), but my grandad trained as a para on greenham common airbase where my current job is. He also was in one of the Horsa gliders that captured Pegasus Bridge. His brother was a POW in the Pacific and was either around the corner from or working on the bridge that Bridge over the River Kwai is based on.

    Any dentists?

    I've got a couple of ice hockey sticks here or a cricket ball. £10 a tooth (note, I cannot guarantee I get the right tooth first time).
  6. I use dark brown ones that come with ceramic swing tops. No way those are going to randomly pop open....
  7. I use the tins. They aren't as bad as they used to be. I have some bookmarks on the pc for suppliers, I'll find them for you. Make sure you bottle it in dark bottles, it stops the light getting to the beer and ruining it.
  8. I got told I wouldn't be getting a pay rise just before Xmas despite it being a year and a half. I should hopefully start my new job in April.
  9. I think the holiday has come at the right time. You can recharge and then get back to it. I'm totally cheering for you on this.

    Flat?

    10 hours or so. If it hasn't shown any signs of life after that get a new battery. OK thanks, can I get a replacement that doesn't need water etc? It's a real pain to get the screw through the terminals too will any replacement be the same way to attach? Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Yeah they all screw on. I normally find it's restraining straps that are more of a pig. Most batteries you buy new for a bike require you to put liquid in them (but they normally supply it in the box) from experience. It's not rocket science fortunately.
  11. As it is a mandatory stop they are forcing on them, they set a minimum time to try and stop the better teams gaining (or too much of) an advantage. It's to try keep the gaps the same coming out the pits as going in.
  12. When you get it from KFC Other fried chicken options are also available.
  13. Given your username I think I know exactly which pizza company that will be. A dual SIM phone is defo a good shout as it's also one less device you have to lug about. I know Huawei make some.
  14. A lot of people swear by yuasa. Personally they have failed too often for me so I'm not so trusting of that particular brand.
  15. 176 for a mechanic to do all that? If it's fixed it I'd say not bad as they have checked a fair bit. I also imagine they are charging for the fresh fuel so at a guess I'd say they have probably charged for about 2 hours labour plus parts.
  16. Looks good and a nice shiny exhaust system will finish it off beautifully. Love the colour my self you did the tank in.
  17. Having driven the nice a roads from Bristol down to Shaftesbury on Monday, I'm thinking of getting the bike down to Blandford direction in a few weekends time. If anyone fancies meeting up for a brew or a bit of a jolly then let me know and I will keep up dated on dates.
  18. Because kids these days want everything for nothing. It amazes me the attitudes of those just 10 years younger than me. Self entitled most of them and scared of work.
  19. I do trail brake and engine brake far too much, and I lock the rear up and poo myself Slipper clutch is a winner for that Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Having downshifted to fast once I can confirm they work. Brilliant things.
  20. Trail braking into a corner is best left to the race track. Though I would always have worked on using the rear brake to close trajectory along with easing throttle.
  21. Ooh an Aprillia breaking down. Italian build quality at its finest!
  22. Well done for sticking with it. Just makes it all the more rewarding.
  23. Thanks [mention]RantMachine[/mention] for liking my post Friday, I'm crying after reading all this again.
