Oxford not-so-Boss Disc Lock
Fleck replied to a topic in Clothing, Luggage, Accessories and Security
I've had many alarmed disc locks. Oxford are one of the worst brands, the small Xena one is OK, the big Bluetooth one is useless and lasted about 3 months... But the best so far is... Still working and on it's original battery!

Do you bother with a Pinlock?
Fleck replied to Simon Davey's topic in Clothing, Luggage, Accessories and Security
Never had or seen one. My last 2 Shark helmets come with a useless visor coating that does nothing to stop the visor steaming up so Shark say they aren't needed I open the visor 10mm sometimes when I stop -
When the insurance is more than the bike is worth, it's time to insure 3rd party only
-
Well the two in the photo don't look very nice so definitely sell those. Africa twin a good choice Just my opinion of course feel free to ignore
-
Yes
-
Had a look on their website, none of the helmets are branded, just Chinese crap at about £150, the markup must be over £100
-
Cleaned the downpipes with autosol
-
Have a look at the Honda CL500. It's nearly double the power, has a smoother twin cylinder engine and is lighter.
-
OMG that bike is 9kg heavier than the 750 Hornet and is only 24bhp. If I had to ride that I'd give up motorcycling
-
I bought the new Hornet 750 and it's fantastic, easy to ride, plenty of power - in fact it's too good because I can never sell it
-
I wear a balaclava so the helmet stays clean, bit warmer too
-
Got me for a minute, thought it must be a 650 twin engine or something.. Then saw it's the inline 4 so googled 70kw and it turns out it's 94bhp as expected
-
70kw is 94bhp... it says 47bhp above which I presume is the A2 restricted version
-
Fit the brief nicely apart from it's 46bhp. That would soon become tedious for me I'd go for something with more power like the 750 transalp.

I'm going to try a Viper modular next, British made and built in intercom. Sick of my Sharks visors breaking
-
Covering the back seat up with a piece of plastic. Why? I don't take the back seat out of my car
-
Honda 1100 over the HD. The Harley maybe cooler but you won't look very cool when you're miles from home and there's a problem with it
-
It's useless on the 750 Hornet, I've unpaired my phone with it now. Could have been great for navigation if it displayed Google maps... Waste of a colour screen
-
Morris wouldn't supply the Minis free of charge for the Italian Job film, they had to buy them
-
No it's bad engine design I think as the 790 is made by CF Moto in China and the 890 made in Austria. Both have the same reliability problems
-
Multiple problems and record debt, Can they recover?

Alpinestars boot's peeling
Fleck replied to V650's topic in Clothing, Luggage, Accessories and Security
I was putting my boots on today and thought wow these sidi boots are 23 years old! They're immortal -
We're out for a ride and lunch tomorrow as long as it's 8 Celsius or above we're good to go. Usually get out once a month in winter
-
Used to be £7.99. I got rid when it went up a quid
-
Towbar noseweight is usually rated at 50kg. Rather you than me. My rack is on the 2 chassis rails and is still only rated for a 150kg bike
