Not wearing a helmet is about your own safety not someone else’s, unless you are proposing that someone who chooses to not wear a helmet is more likely to take other risks that might put others in danger ... if so please provide your peer reviewed evidence / data to support your assertion. There is of course this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Risk_compensation (which I have a hunch from your post you already know about) I’m aware of that theory, although Wikipedia isn’t considered a reliable source, a bit more investigation may reveal a more reliable source.

Don’t understand the Audi reference No concern for others safety.

Why would they be a danger to anyone else but them selves? Why, because they are obviously not to be trusted in any shape or manner. Bit like the audi and bike doing at least a 100mph and accelerating in a 50, he wasn't catching the audi either. Don’t understand the Audi reference

Started the Trophy Cafe Racer project up, sounded sweet - idle was a bit quick but rear wheel was spinning ( on centre stand ) so it had started in gear without holding in the clutch! Then hit the kill switch & it continued running, turned off the ignition & it continued running - had to pull the plug caps to stop it. As it’s not a two stroke running away with it’s self it seems I’ve got an electrical gremlin... bugger !!

Why would they be a danger to anyone else but them selves? If they take up more of the limited health resources in this country those resources are not available For someone else. Maybe. Best stop riding altogether then ....

I always wear a helmet, but I’m pro choice & anti compulsion. Luckily the helmet law has thus far not led to the compulsive use of protective gear ( again I choose to wear protective gear , mostly) or other stuff such as airbags, leg protectors or BHP limits, not for the want of various nut jobs trying to enforce their unfounded dogma & rebuffed thanks to the likes of MAG.

Freshly caught mackerel on a shoreside bbq ... yum yum. Although they are buggers to fillet boneless.

Last time Mrs Mickly told me to get changed in the garage coz I was soaking wet, I walked into the house stark bollock naked as I was soaked to the skin I’d got nothing to change into .... How was I to know that her sister was visiting ?

Yep, Major Spanking-Hyde & Lady Twinset - Pearl Necklace will galvanise the local W.I. & Masonic lodge to ensure it never disturbs the tranquility of their retirement idyll - “bloody tourists are bad enough, should be allowed to shoot the buggers in season” says outraged local judge Sir Roger Emruffly !!

Funnily enough, while watching a tv programme about how to stop nuisance calls I got this ... & my response - do not view if you are easily offended!!

Bloody hell, took you some time didn’t it... Most lads have perfected the art of shower sex by the age of 14 ..

I was expounding that theory with a couple of the team at work once, complaining about a guy called Simon Craig, said that his parents did it on purpose just to confuse people & he continued to do so in the work place ...... They just stared at me ... Then I twigged ..... their names were Julie Duncan & Mark Simon ..... whoops

Did dark & dirty deeds

Nice way of having fun at under 20 MPH Won’t last long, make the most of it before it’s banned!!

Left in 1978 Me & my mates were leaving the day of our last exam, so as these were all different, we arranged to meet for a drink in the field behind the school on the last official day of school. Obviously shit mates with shit excuses as no fukka turned up.” Except me. On the bright side a group of girls had the same idea, so I sat with them drinking wine, scotch & Newcastle Brown. They got flirty & I copped off with one of them ( who I’d fancied for ages ), she only told me she’d got an older boyfriend when she was pulling her knickers up !! I was slightly gutted, but too happy & pissed to really care.

Back on topic .... Do you wish to replace the oil or has it been leaking & you want to top it up? If it’s just replacing it, measure the air gap before you empty it & re-fill to that level. If it’s been leaking measure the side that hasn’t & replicate on the other side.
