I'm in Kent so will try to join you and ride some of the Kent section if you want?

Saab 9-3 Convertible Open air driving helped me move towards a bike

They are based on the set of questions used by DSA in live tests, so blame them for the obscure ones I find this site easier to use http://www.2pass.co.uk/theorytest.php?t=2 but the occasional car question crops up in the motorcycle test, unless motorcycles are now fitted with a "gas pedal" Got my theory test on Tuesday, so I hope these practices are working!

Thanks. Realised that but got confused cos he said it HAS seized, which I took to mean that it still IS seized. My brain works too literally sometimes

I'm confused. If it turns over, then surely it cannot be seized.

Being further away from the sun would mean that the engine would run colder though

Nobody has mentioned turbo yet either

I had assumed (maybe wrongly) that if the clutch plates were worn to excess, that you would lose drive, as in a car, 'cos the clutch would slip? And I didn't realise you could adjust at both ends, so maybe a quick read of Haynes is in order

Have noticed over the last few days that my clutch needed adjusting as there was a lot of slack at the lever. After adjusting it was OK for a few days then needed it again which seemed odd. Tonight I had no adjustment left and still had slack at lever. Then gradually I seemed to lose clutch so that eventually even with the lever all the way in the engine was still engaged, which makes stopping tricky and waiting at lights hazardous! Got round it by stalling, selecting neutral, loads of revs and drop it into gear (managed an accidental wheelie as a result which got a strange look from a biker going the other way ) Not sure if it makes a difference but its an Aprilia RS125. Any ideas?

Trade it in for a blunt knife so you too can castrate basta*ds

Aprilia RS 125 -- derestricted it is capable of 100+ mph, although fuel consumption is crap and reliability can be a problem. Insane acceleration at 7k rpm though, so its not all bad

They also tend to be quite smokey when first started

Well of course you can, all tank bags are washable surely?
