  1. It's mainly cars and young kids on bikes with cheap eBay exhausts here. Which being a city is constant. There definitely are not as many noisy motorcycles as years ago. But I see a guy warming up his R1 for at least five minutes some mornings. Straight through pipes at 6:30. I bet his neighbours love that.
  2. I've had a slow leak from the front tyre for a while now. It will lose 5-6 psi in a week. I could never see anything piercing the tyre. So today I removed the wheel and found it leaking from the rim. Broke the bead, cleaned and inflated again. There did seem to be a small amount of corrosion inside the rim. It doesn't seem to be leaking now. Fingers crossed.
  3. A lot of dealers are booked solid this time of year. But if you are selling vehicles that need preparation, you should allow for that.
  4. That's a real shame. You will just have to try again. It will be worth it.
  5. It's just a thought. But had the same problem on a Suzuki address scooter. When I took the original ignition switch apart. It had a 100 ohm resistor between two of the wires. It was well hidden. Put a resistor inline with the new switch and it worked. Obviously the ECU is looking for a certain voltage. It might explain the difference in voltage on the original post too.
  6. So KTM is now ending it's dealer affiliation to CF moto. From next month dealers will only sell KTM models again. I wonder if they were losing sales when people were comparing prices?
  7. It's probably had the throttle cable replaced at some time. And like @Old and Withered said. Not replaced correctly. It's a good thing they found it.
  8. Morning everyone, Simon.
  9. That's great service. They are well know for it. I've noticed Halfords do a similar thing when I wanted a part for my cycle. I looked at the price on the website. And when I went to the store it was quite a bit more money. They did match it when I asked though. But a bit sneaky if you ask me.
  10. What a great mix of bikes.
  11. My brother had a similar thing with motorcycle city years ago. Three months wait for a gift service.
  12. No it wasn't a taxi. Low miles in excellent condition. Apparently the finance companies have lost hundreds of millions of pounds as they thought EV vehicles would hold their value better. So now they are taking a dim view on pricing to not make the same mistakes again.
  13. I was watching a dealer talking about a EV Skoda Kodiaq the other day. £52,000 new. Was three years old and he was having trouble sorting finance for it. The finance companies have its value as £8000 when it's six years old. Shocking.
  14. Congratulations @Fozzie. Looks like a lovely place to get married.
  15. But then they look at you like. Why did you do that?
