TMBF 2011 Rally! W/e of 16th July - chat & gossip thread!!
Decor58 replied to a topic in Biking events
There is also the two wheel centre in mansfield, I'm pretty certain they do clothing, decent guys who you can actually haggle with. Got my lid from them with £20 off Edit: Just checked the website and the do clothing & boots. -
up to 95mph can de dealt with at the side of the road with up to 6 pts and a fine Above that and it goes to the courts where you'll either get points and a bigger fine, a ban or a prison sentence for dangerous driving depending on the riding and whether you were putting other people's lives at risk. If you was going fast but not putting other at risk it should just be points and a big fine. Though I have to ask, how could you not notice the car following and keeping up with you at that speed and not think it might be an unmarked car?

Fancy dress has arrived!! Looks pretty cool too. Though I think it might look a bit better with a wig but I'll see if I have time to get one. -
I use the met office's forecast since it's where most of the other get their information (I believe) and it's generally OK, it also gives quite a good breakdown of the weather over the next 24 hours with a reasonable degree of accuracy.

It's not too bad lilcat, just keep the bike upright and in second gear taking it slow and it's fine. If you really don't like it there will be plenty of people around who could maneouver the bike to where you want it for you. -

Spire is that an old photo? I'm 99.9% sure that picture was taken at RAF Wittering, however when I got there it was a different gate guardian which looked quite new so I'm not sure if it's been replaced since you took that pic. Anyway here are my pics (assuming they count) RAF Wittering Gate Guardian http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd75/decor58/Tags/05072011179.jpg New Tag http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd75/decor58/Tags/05072011180.jpg

I've read the book and found that I was naturally applying most of the techniques as they're common sense however there are some very good points in there and I'd advise anyone to read it. The biggest thing to remember is that you never stop learning and can always improve.

Is it not? Damn it, really wanted to make changes lol guess I missed it too!

If they squeak you know they're genuine! I've had mine for 2 years done over 14,000 miles in them plus worn them just as shoes quite a bit and they still squeak!! Love it

Not quite sure how far you need to drill in to use a screw extractor but could you just drill half way so that you don't get anything going onto the piston? Ideally though I'd agree with Tango, take the head off just to make sure nothing unwanted gets in.

Spirits Susieque - JD & coke stu will be on the JD tracey god knows i will update probably malibu Decor58 - Rum (White or Darn not fussed) I ticked draugh cider as I don't often drink bottled due to it usually costing twice as much!! (If it wasn't I would) -
someone said they broke a clamp by using one doing this though :s Must of either been a really cheap piece of crap clamp or the calliper was siezed solid It was seriously stiff! Can't remember how I did it in the end, think it might have been brute force and ignorance.

I've had this problem every time I've too the GSXF's calipers apart. Clean the piston as much as you can to get the dirt off. Then get some wood or something and place it over the piston and whack it with a hammer (or use a wooden mallet) If you have a strong G-clamp that works too though I've broken one before trying to use one for this job.

I think I'd prefer a standard one for the bike, don't fancy covering my bike in things like that tbh, I'll pm you what I'm after tomorrow hopefully
