  1. Fantastic roads! Nice scenery too.
  2. This is spot on. I learned to drive in London. And although I quit the place 30 years ago, I still revert to type and drive like a nob unless I keep my mind focussed. Doesn't help that I've a nob's car too.
  3. und sahne, I trust. Sounds delicious. Half a mint magnum for me after a stroll along the (utterly empty) beach. Loverly, but not as loverly as the B500.
  4. Blimey. You and Jack are almost twins. Happy birthday!
  5. Sod the weather. Look at the tarmac.
  6. Nooooooo!
  7. Get yourself on the machine and give it a try!
  8. This is the problem. Still looking for something higher.
  9. You can get kits to mount them to one of the forks, like this. I used some neoprene to protect the forks. Here's how they look from the front.
  10. Hi buddy. Great pic! What kind of riding do you do?
  11. Hello mate. Kalispera and all that.
  12. Oh yeah... er, grass snake excretions. I often think that about fork oil.
  13. When my son was preparing for his, I'd blithely said not to sweat it, you can't fail. Turns out he took this a bit too literally and turned up without a clue of what the inside of The Highway Code looks like. He failed, of course.
  14. Have a great time Rob! My tip would be don't ignore the Lowlands: the roads in all directions around Moffat are awesome.
  15. The top box has the following +s More secure: you can lock it, and it's bolted to the bike too More waterproof; most tail bags need waterproof covers Less faff: it's a small point, but a tail bag needs to be unzipped, but a top box opens with the turn of a key Probably worth it if you're using the bike a lot.
  16. That's why I wuz at the travelodge. Everywhere else way too posh.
  17. You may be glad of the small rubber one, I had one similar to the one Bonio is giving away & it scratched the top yolk of my old Speedtriple to buggery. It worked fine on my Tiger 800. There's a little key-fob shaped space between the tank and the ignition; it tucks in there in, leather side towards the tank, and never moves.
  18. That's very decent of you. I'll wait a day or two and see if anyone here is after it. If not, it's yours.
  19. https://i.imgur.com/wLqzE58.png' alt='IMGUR>'> PM me with your address.
  20. hmm. Not sure the Carthaginians would have seen it your way. Nor the Persians. Nor the Scots for that matter. Nor a shed load of others.
  21. Like has been said, you can ride a 50cc moped now without L plates. After you get the CBT, you can also ride a 125, but only with L plates.
  22. Ooof. Never seen one like that. You're hardly allowed to do anything.
