  1. They use the master cylinder mounts.
  2. Try this http://www.pmrcomponents.com/pmrweb_045.htm
  3. Shock N Unlock works on the temperature variation theory. Heat first might help shock it even more.
  4. Halfords Shock N Unlock has a good reputation.
  5. We are supposed to be roughty toughty bikers not fluffy softies
  6. Catching or rubbing on something.
  7. Once again, size wise if you can't get it here, it doesn't exist. https://www.jtsbikerclothing.com/
  8. I am a bit envious of people that live in Kent and can just pop through the tunnel for a weekend in France.
  9. For the past 15 to 20 years they have been temporarily repaired and then temporarily repaired again, Get yourself off to France for some decent road surfaces, or Germany or Italy or ....... you get the idea.
  10. It depends a lot on what the wheels are made of or coated with.
  11. I have had the Rider 550 and the Rider 400 before it in torrential rain and both were fine. I have never been brave enough to try the phone in torrential rain
  12. One of the drawbacks of using a smartphone on a motorcycle is the very harsh environment they have to perform in. Whilst they have ingress protection if you happen to drop them in the bath or bucket of water, if you introduce vibration to the mix they are out of their design parameters. Which is why I use my S8 and Tomtom App as a back up only. The dedicated motorcycle PNDs are more expensive, agreed, but they are more expensive because of the extra engineering they need to cope with the motorcycle environment.
  13. As well as the Rider 550 I have a Galaxy S8 running the Tomtom App as a back up. Phones are OK but dedicated Motorcycle PNDs are better for use with gloves on. The Tomtom App uses the same interface as the 550.
  14. The Tomtom Rider 550 certainly does update by WiFi but it needs to be a direct connection, not a connection you have to access via a web page as you do in many hotels. You can however use your smartphone as a WiFi hotspot and do it that way as long as you have enough data allowance.
  15. I think you just asked and answered your own question.
  16. I know a couple of hotels within an hour of Santander. http://hotelpicosdeuropa.com/ (Arenas De Cabrales) https://hoteldonpacollanes.com/en/ (Llanes) pronounced Yanez https://www.hotelesmontemar.com/ also in Llanes You can book via the websites or use Booking.com or Trivago or Hotels.com or any booking site of your choice.
  17. Maybe we can put the whole spelling and grammar thing to bed eh? It's not just this forum that has poor spelling and grammar it's most forum I visit. The education system has let down so many people, or they were too busy bunking off
  18. After these comments I thought I would check my grammar just in case, and according to https://www.grammarchecker.co.uk/ it was fine.
  19. Ya bin at the google fing agin
  20. Did you use a comma where you should have used a semicolon? That would be a no I think.
  21. A good source of information http://www.fema-online.eu/website/index.php/consumer-information/riding-abroad/
  22. There are a few things that might change in the event of Britain leaving the European Union without an exit deal, driving permits, insurance green cards, and some are saying we may need a visa. You might want to hold off making plans for a month until it's all over.
  23. Read post four.He's already ordered one . He can hold onto this information for future reference.
  24. If you are looking for a bit of an upgrade in filter you could go for Pipercross or K&N which are re-usable.
  25. There are lots of solutions for the rubbing problem. A small frame is one, you can also use velcro straps to hold them out.
