Plenty of Normal drill bits and plenty of coolant should do the trick... Lubysil/trefelex etc..

I read about this in last weeks MCN... Nice! Shame i've recently bought an XR1000.

Well done!!!

My dad went to this, I didn't want to waste the weather walking around so I stayed on the road! Looked like a good event though.

Interesting. I grab a handful of disposable plugs from work every couple of months, they must be good ones to comply with regs etc Wouldn't be without them.

Good luck! Hope the weather stays decent for the day.

Racevisors weren't quite as cheap as Helmet City, even with the free visor. I got the my tinted visor from RV though!

Arlen Ness do some nice stuff but you do pay for it. I was looking at the Sinister lid in a shop the other day and the graphics did look smart. I've tried the Dainese leathers on that I posted on the previous page and they felt alright, but I didn't like the way they looked at all! Also tried an RST 2 piece on and found it quite comfy and it looked good aswell, so will be purchasing a set in black. (and saving £300 or so over the Dainese!). If they fit, think i'll get some matching RST gloves. Cant find those SP-1s in black and dont want them in red anymore.

Helmet... Check. (Iffy photo from phone) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v178/berryyar/31032009344.jpg Its every bit as good as everyone on here said. Comparing it with my Arai RX7 Corsair; its lighter, fits my bonce better, quieter and looks better. And it cost £199 of the net.I'm happy!

Was a bit annoying at first but like everything you get used to it. Shoei on the way though tomorrow

Looks smart that.

Think so! https://www.jsaccessories.co.uk/view_de ... -1%20Glove

Yeah it is a nice one that. Like the idea of mosly black with bits of red.

lol Found some gloves im interested in, the Aplinestars SP-1. Now i've got some of these in red/white (which im selling) but they must have changed them recently because they look different. Anyway, they seem a good price at £56 so i'll find somewhere to try them to get the size right, then order. Still not made my mind up about the leathers yet. Thanks for the replies!

Right so thats the lid sorted then... Does £245 posted sound like a good price for the one pictured?

Im wanting to change my summer gear soon - leathers and gloves and a new helmet to match. Originally I didn't want to spend loads, I was thinking of RST Rift 2 piece leathers/gloves and an AGV Stealth helmet so I went to the Rocket Centre to have a look. The AGV was a horrible fit, felt too tight so I tried a Shoei XR1000 which felt perfect. Better than the RX7 Corsair I have (going to keep that for winter use with textiles). So does anyone have experience with the Shoei? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v178/berryyar/p17_artifact20tc-1_b.jpg Leathers, I want black 2 piece. Tried the RSTs on which felt good but then the GF pointed out these Dainese Laguna Seca (2 pc in black) which looked and felt mint! But they cost a bit more than what I originally wanted to pay. Are Dainese worth the extra money over RST? For some reason i've got into my head that Dainese are bought by people my dad's age (really old) Is this accurate? Obviously not according to the photo... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v178/berryyar/T_Laguna-Seca_div.jpg I could do with some recommendations for gloves - leather, black and long cuffs. Around £60. Cheers

Doesn't matter because you'll have changed your mind in 18-24 months anyway

Its not the actual test itself I was worrying about. Its the faffing about getting to the test centre that is alot further away, the costs involved and the time off work. Obviously getting a test at the local test centre will be much easier. All I have to do is practice the f'ing u-turn... until I can do them in my sleep.

Thank f*** for that! My re-test isnt going to be a complete nightmare now. YEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D 8-) 8-)
