have anyone got these and do they keep your hands warm. got handle bar mitts but don't like them.

I've got oxford Toledo jacket and Montreal trousers . so far so good but not got caught in any real heavy down pours.

on Oxford products what does 1.0,2.0,3.0 mean? better quality or better water proof?

oi bugger lugs is what got called as an apprentice

typical of insurance they like taking money off you but pay out.they fight tooth and nail to keep it.

opinions. thats what we're for. won't know or learn other wise.

I wash my jacket in the washing machine with a small amount of detergent last year. have I buggered it up water proof wise. thinking of washing it again but using Nikwax wash and spray on w/proofing .or is it to late??

jacket. wife and me both have this jacket. not been tested in the rain as yet. so we don't know how water proof these jackets. can any one on here vouch it is water proof as manufactures states? I ask recently about over jacket but I question myself do I really need one if these are water proof?

not only that salt on the road. no way I'm going to ruin my bike for the sake of it.

got this delivered a couple of weeks ago. not ridden it yet to coooold.lol m/bikes for me are passed.getting sick of numb bum syndrome. this a m/bike with a scooter body on.

OK guys thanks. I'll look into these links.

try as I might I cannot find a water proof light weight over jacket. the one I'm looking for is that you can fold or roll into a small bag. all I can find is the ones with lining in. which I already have but to fat and take up to much space. any ideas??

well I've finally got it sorted tried another web sight which inc no claim protect. didn't bother with legal protection or breakdown cover cost £114.61. thats the cheapest I've ever had insurance.lol thanks for your replies its interesting to read what others have to say.

why is it such a pain in the ass doing these on line quotes ,not interested in riding some one else's bike nor overseas riding. never inc no claim protection etc. tried ringing never get through .sorry line is busy try later or they make you wait. why can't things be simple like the old days full comp is FULL COMP not full of these add on's.

E10 gas has a three-month shelf life maximum. I put fuel stabiliser in my tank and always full to the brim. not had problems so far. on my old bike I changed the fuel lines that are e10 compatible.

thanks

thanks for your kind words. as for Darlo show I'm not really into exhibiting stuff but I dont mind shows. where is it at? heres a better picture of the said bike

this is my current bike,I've about 6 of these inc the GT500(x 2) from pink to mazda soul red.

yes best to try one the 900 before you buy. every body is different.

fazer is an old bike by now whether its a 600 or though so shock will have had it by now. most only last to 10,00 miles if your lucky. I had the 600, I ride two up all the time. I'm no light weight 18 stone wife is 9. this my old Fazer600

that goes for most bikes suspension not to good. it only comes in if you ride like twat. never had a problem with any of my bikes but then again I'm not a fast rider. @ nearly 70 years old I wont mend to easily so I take it easy and enjoy the scenery with my good lady on the back. as for gear box whine that is common knowledge so can live with it others can't.

I'd go for the xsr 900. because I'd get this done to it.

I had the 700x dct. good bikes. I was considering buying the s model till I saw my current bike going for £6200 on the road. so I bought that instead a tracer 700 old model. not a fan of the new model.

horrible whining noise at around 60 mph once 70 and over it goes away. the dash hard to keep clean and very untidy. seat is like a plank add any more padding it will raise the height. cant lower it due to sump being low to start with. always felt top heavy and want to fall over if you lean over while maneuvering while riding. just didn't like the bike full stop. I only bought to do a tour of Scotland then sell it on. in my opinion the 700 is a much better bike for me anyway.
