Where do you guys get your gear?
Hoggs replied to Jricho's topic in Clothing, Luggage, Accessories and Security
Go to a shop try stuff on, give them your money -
I was under the impression that it's actually illegal to ride (or drive) with L plates if you've passed your test? When you passed your instructor should have crossed through the plate or removed it for the ride back. but Hoggs, I hear you say, loads of parents stick L plates on their car then never bother covering them when they use it without the learner. Well they are dirty wronguns and you should kick their wingmirrors off as you go past* *don't this is also illegal

that's flown by! Glad you've put up with us and stuck around

Licence help
Hoggs replied to Liveware Problem's topic in CBT, Test and Advanced Training Information
it may not have updated yet but if you have your licence number (I think they write it on the certificare) and your national insurance number (normally found on payslips) you can check your licence on the dvla website https://www.gov.uk/view-driving-licence if wrong/no info available may be easier talking to your training school first see what they have to say worst case the new Ninja 650 is A2 compliant... -
oh this is a good call! my knees are knackered so I really should get my own pair rather than stealing the OHs (I mocked him for about 3 seconds before realising what a great idea they were )
-
you have to do the cbt first but then you can jump straight in to the a2 tests. you'll need to do the bike specific theory before the a2 stuff best thing you can do is find a riding school give them a call tell them what you want and see what they can offer you course wise

I know this is the eBay pic of the Chinese one you don't want but is the style the same?
-
Aye this is the best approach I think! sometimes I'd rather just wait in traffic especially if I'm tired or it's dark and wet and windy and horrible. or sometimes I just can't be arsed for the sake of 2 minutes Oh and sometimes I like to stop in traffic so I can take up the whole lane and stretch out my legs wheeeeeeeeeeee
-
No! It's fab you're learning about it and asking questions! The only reason I don't post stuff like this is that I know JRH in real life so he gets phone calls
-
Genuine thought: how fast are you going round these corners? Is it just dropping out the rev range for the gear and if you went down to 4th it would be ok?

Congrats! I failed my theory the first time on the stupid hazard thing (it wasn't a thing when I did my car test!)! and it must have been as I was clicking too early so the next round I clicked when I saw it, then again a second later, then again when it was right in my face seemed to work As above... when you got your practicals booked for

make your own rain! take it in the shower with you

I was filtering on the way home on the north circular and went past a motorbike policeman who was waiting in traffic. As he didn't chase me down I am assuming it's legal although I did feel naughty going past him!!
-
Correct: the two black blocks are NO and the two red ones are NC... What do I do now? Page JRH to the thread!

Kawa GT750 advice needed
Hoggs replied to obyapka's topic in Old Motorbikes, Projects and Restorations
Hello and welcome, there doesn't seem to be a lot for sale, a rough websearch seems to put them between 1500 - 3000.... depends how much you are happy to see it go for I suppose. Shame I am poor as I have a massive soft spot for them as probably one of the first bikes I ever sat on -
We have two live ones today! Hope you a great day guys!
-
Yeah your daughter has excellent taste

Does that mean there can only be 2 mods?. I worry about Hoggs' powers as a mod, as a non green bike owner should I fear persecution (and possibly lightning) I'm lovely even to dirty wrongun non green bike owners
