  1. Yup,tiktok,dark web and spice I think......
  2. Using muscles and tendons a lot, also the bars and controls aren't really setup for an individual, something you can sort when you get your own bike.
  3. If It wasn't for the hot bit I would presume you've just rocked up in hull.......
  4. To quote monty python "we are all individuals" I was fine with CBT, took 3 goes to do mod 1 and passed mod 2 no faults. I had my 125 for a year for gaining experience, some go straight to big bike, I like you was In no rush.
  5. No advice will really help you with the actual riding bit yet, other that relax, which is easy to say and hard to do, being tense on the bike is bad for control.. When I did my CBT it was a mix of newbies and re sits, one woman gave up halfway through, more from the stress she put on herself because she wasn't doing as well as she wanted to be doing and falling behind the rest, place weren't pushing her and we're happy to have one guy just for her. Hopefully another day and you will feel better but tbh if it takes another 2 apart from the financial hit it's irrelevant.
  6. Better to take longer and actually learn something than them just shove you through and straight out on the road.
  7. It's not completely Chinese owned although they are collectively over the 50% threshold with various Chinese company's which probably all boil down to state owned Italian gov took steps to stop them actively being run by Chinese. They have manufacturing in china but also extensively around Europe, also south America and Russia that may be state owned now
  8. See your all just spoilt rotten here
  9. Tin Of wd40 or any other oil as things start to rust pretty quick afterwards, quick squirt and a rub down works wonders
  10. Why can't you book it in early one morning and start later, MOT work, home.
  11. Was supposed to be going away but wife full of cold so that's a no.
  12. Moderation everything in moderation, see what I did there
  13. I've been very moderate in my moderation, it's dead exciting stuff re-sizing pictures for big head Kevin's posts and keeping an eye on new members to see what blatantly looks like a bot or spam or a twat, it's edge of the seat stuff, ohh and checking first posts from new members, excitement that you just can't find in the real world.
  14. Somehow I think bender may have had a hand in that edit if I'm being honest
  15. Chances slim, sods law highly likely. I'm no good on this subject, I drove a van with no MOT 300 miles to the MOT station, I did take the most direct route though
  16. Just about everywhere up here says get off the bike while filling up. I have center stand, never used it when filling up.
  17. I did flag a spammer or 2 in the user list, maybe I deleted a friend Does make you wonder how sad your life must be when you feel the urge to keep making up accounts and trying to stir shit, ohh well, next.
  18. I think his main problem will be his employers and unexpected events think he's flexible too
  19. Just part of the job I did, it wasn't all bad, I was paid for it
  20. You can start with much harsher than t cut, as long as you work your way down to brasso it's fine. I spent many an unhappy hour polishing stick men and knobs out of acrylic windows, usually drawn with the nearest pointy stone.
  21. Will depend on use, computer 5 days a week and out weekends prob less than that, odd weekend and only in the sun probably way more. You can get helmets tested and checked https://helmetinspection.co.uk/
  22. This offer is not available to any one called @geofferz
