  1. HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH hey Rant! Rant you seen this??
  2. Glad a sensible decision was reached
  3. errrr yeah of course I read those.... I mean you're my favourite group.. that kinda counts right?
  4. This is completely true. More gear AND more bikes
  5. Nah Bonio is well flakey I have another bike thing on this weekend (weekend thing with already paid for accommodation!) So I'm a no. Try and hold up without me guys.
  6. Hmm I suppose Jay will be going by bike next year? OK who wants to carry my stuff down to the rally? Oh wait I don't have any stuff... Gin can I borrow your tent again? OK who wants to carry my loaned tent to the rally!
  7. yeah I get a couple a week and have got just over a fiver in two months
  8. Top stuff guys. Congrats on the passes the real learning starts now!
  9. Nerves are a kicker on the mod 1! Congrats and good luck for mod 2
  10. Top stuff as said take it nice and easy getting used to the power and keep an eye out for slippery bits I think I can almost see your grin from here!
  11. Wow that's forward planning
  12. Hey Phooey,maybe try these guys they do free quotes! they are based in Kent but say they do a lot of work over to the South West maybe worth a try http://www.movingmotorcycles.co.uk/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
  13. Oooh top stuff Is the ride bone rattling hard with no rear suspension??
  14. ack bad luck Manc, keep your head right up when doing those slow speed turns. You'll nail the next one
  15. Worked on getting the ole chicken strips down. Sure Hooner will comment on them being huge still http://i.imgur.com/5Pf7vJK.jpg (Don't tell him the other side is about twice as wide )
  16. Maybe give vauxhall a call? Pretend you're going to buy from them then accidentally get "cut off" Take it there's no part numbers on the stuff you need to replace?
  17. Have you stuck the reg into eurocarparts or equivalent to see what comes up? I know you said Google buy wasn't sure if you'd tried a parts site
  18. Whilst it sounds silly, seriously take 10 deep breaths before you start. It will flush out any adrenaline from your system and help you focus. Remember lifesavers, speed limit awareness and try and relax as we all know it's not easy to steer when you're all tensed up! And as previously mentioned, ride as if you are by yourself - don't wait for gaps for two to get out on, if a traffic light is changing and you can make it through safely just go for it. The examiner knows where you're going so will either catch up or ask you to pull over. Oh and if you do have to wait for him somewhere, stop a good distance from anything in front and keep your eyes peeled for him (although they have crazy hawk eyes so you'll probably be told t go before you see him!) remember CHECK CHECK CHECK before you pull out just as you will when you're doing the scheduled pull overs. Oh and if you miss a direction or realise you're in the wrong lane just GO THE WRONG WAY. This is not a fail. Swerving across lanes to "correct" yourself is. Never ever ever turn right at a roundabout from a left hand lane (well.. until you pass then you can do what you want )
  19. oooh darn it you're pulling away there a bit Rennie! Stupid Pedrosa and his stupid tyres
  20. That's my closest services so I suppose there's a teeny tiny chance I'll see you there
  21. The above post should be read by anyone considering a Chinese bike. If you do nothing it will fall apart. If you are happy getting stuck in, will constantly check for loose nuts and bolts and know how to fix stuff when it goes wrong, and want a cheap run around go for it. I'll still advise going Japanese to people... but for super cheap bimbling can't really argue. *starts looking at 125 idiot challenge again*
  22. Rant please make sure you film yourself hooning it down there
  23. Ah thanks Fizzy. Yeah most of the people who take their own bike to do the CBT on are doing refresher course within 2 years so still insured and have a CBT
  24. What about heavy hooning? But I know no one would heavy hoon on the roads, that's for track only right
