  1. Had you seen me and the boys last night we were in a similar state
  2. Were I not nursing a monster hangover I would have met up Rosie!
  3. Actually the Deauville has quite a narrow profile and would be ideal for what you want. I agree with Korbs, get a helmet that fits well and make sure the shop doesn't just fob you off for a sale Check out Alt-Berg for boots too, i have had a pair for 5 years and never ever had wet feet
  4. Spend a bit more on good quality breathable waterproofs with CE protection, remove liners in summer, insert in winter - all sorted
  5. I thought Maplin did a 'over the ear' attachment for this system Para?

    50- 72cc.

    Firstly - power or no power - How old are you? If you are under 17 then you cannot ride it as it is a motorcycle, not a moped. Mopeds have to be under 50cc design speed of under 30mph (unless reg before 1977 and fitted with pedals -don't laugh MO-PED motor-pedal bicycle!) If you are under 17 and ride anything that doesn't fit the definition then you ride a motorcycle which requires a different (ie bike not ped) licence. Someone technical will be along in a moment to answer the techno stuff! Oh, and fiddling to make it go faster makes it a motorcycle too. If the insurance find out then they will invalidate it and possibly refuse further insurance
  7. You'll be lucky if the shop takes it back. Most have a policy that once it's left the shop they won't exchange
  8. You have time yet....................
  9. Then shamefully I must be the Carrie Bradshaw ((9 pairs - still in service )
  10. I have a pair of Hein Gericke and a pair of Richa summer gloves - both cheapish and both do a good job in't summer
  11. Got to be on 2 lines and in 2 letter, 2 number 2 letter format. 64 mm high. Musr have manufacturers address and/or postcode and Au145 mark - also cannot have any other stickers on it
  12. Try the EDZ balaclava -really thin material

    Vibration

    I reckon if you keep to 140ish the vibration will go away for 6 to 18 months
  14. Whilst the shorter one are nicer looking, the 3/4 ones are better as the water doesn't get into the join (even zipped) between the pants and jacket so easily. I have been there!!
  15. Boil wash then hot airing cupboard - Wear em though, should come out like this http://i144.photobucket.com/albums/r183/Hoody_photo/tightpants.jpg
  16. Try EDZ under garments - excellent stuff, wicks sweat stops leathers/textiles sticking, keeps you cool in summer and provides insulating layer in winter. Combine with an inner shell (top and/or botoms) and makes an ace system. Oh, and don't crash!

    Two Questions...

    On is where it should be. Reserve is what is says. Prime will be to restart after running out / disconnection etc. Re gear selection, wait until you are stationary before trying to gently engage neutral
  21. Not enough money in motorsport or interest in this country to build another new circuit. Rockingham was an ambitious project to revitalise the scene and that's largely been a flop, even given it was designed for both Oval and short circuit (like Indianapolis!) to have best of both worlds. It'sfairly centrally located for both north and south, and the facilities were 21st century. There is money in the sport, but it is held by the corporations. What we need really is government investment and profile raising like other countries get and proper development programmes to support new blood. Hell we don't even do that for the 'popular' stuff like athletics etc. so what chance does non environmentally friendly motorsport have? Like has been said, there are some cracking circuits in the country that just need investment in the facilities - Donington should be first class when it's done, sits in a natural bowl, good views for everyone etc. Silverstone has lost out through unfulfilled promises Viva Donington!
