  1. You want a watch? Sit over there and be quiet then.
  2. A dirty bike is a poorly maintained bike and a breakdown waiting to happen. Make cleaning and lubing part of your routine. It may save your life.
  3. Just had a look. Two broken DVD players A VHS Video recorder A Large box file containing important documents Several out of fashion suits two sizes too small Oh! and two sets of bongos and a banjo.
  4. Silvermans do a brando leather patrol in 5XL. Not sure what size that is but my 3XL is 56 so maybe it around the size you're looking for. https://www.silvermans.co.uk/ProductDet ... fault.aspx They have a HiViz Cordura in 6XL https://www.silvermans.co.uk/ProductDet ... fault.aspx
  5. With enough tools anything will fit everythinghttp://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z28/Colin_the_bear/welder.gif
  6. By this we learn that doing it once slowly is a lot quicker than doing it three times quickly and so next time we do it quickly by doing it slowly. Do it once, do it right
  7. £720 for a second hand parts rebuild? What's the bike worth? A complete second hand engine may be a much cheaper option as may be a complete second hand bike.
  8. The phantom sump plug finger tightener.
  9. No.If the bulb works then it's not the bulb. Front and rear brakes have seperate switches. Locate the rear brake switch and clean adjust or replace it as required.
  10. Horse is better and kangaroo is best. Kangaroo gloves and a hide jacket is my choice. I only wear bottoms if it's cold. Cow for comfort. It may be bullocks but who can tell? and stingray is better still, but is there a full stingray jacket around... probably not Probably good in the wet though. You can get a stingray jacket here ">

  12. Silk under gloves make a massive difference. You won't believe the difference they make till you try some. I was amazed. http://compare.ebay.co.uk/like/16073266 ... adtype=pla
  13. Excellent choice. I've been having a pink retrospective hour ">
  14. Research http://www.youtube.com/embed/Dm7KSSBcU7Q?
  15. No no. If it flips over that's an accident. A stoppie is riding on the front wheel. A wheelie is riding on the back wheel.
  16. Start in 1st. It's called first for a reason. Change up and down to match road speed. The target isn't to get into top as quickly as possible. Match road speed to revs and select appropriate gear. Or get a twist and go
  17. Pretty limited list really.....the stories I could tell

  19. Check the visor is fitted properly and is the right one. It might adjust for a tighter seal or even fit a bit of tape or draught excluder foam to seal the gaps. Shows are good for bargains but you can't take it back easily and they know. You'll find a lot of seconds and returns posing as bargains. Some are, some aren't.
  20. Is Halfords oil suitable for a wet clutch?
