  1. Could be right there tbf, I do remember the times I wash my bike the radiator would sound less noisy. Ironically though I washed it yesterday and today it blew
  2. They are there to visit the dashing doctors and beautiful nurses
  3. May sound strange but try listening to music with some decent earphones, if your brain is focusing on the music it will blur out other inputs and it can actually help you with tintus. I hope this helps.
  4. Hi everyone I got my motorbike in October its a triumph speed triple r 2016 model. So I took my acf50 out and sprayed it on all the prone to rust areas. I even did the radiator - but ever since doing that the radiator would smoke, I thought that is just the acf50 being burnt off..... But then after awhile the radiator was making an annoying noise but the engine temperature was fine. This was ongoing for a few months but today the radiator smoked a lot at a stop and then water came pouring out. So yeah...the radiator blew. I'm wondering if this is down to me spraying it with acf50? Anyone know if you should or shouldn't be spraying the radiator with that stuff. Many thanks

  10. Hi im bought a 20 year old bike the paint on body work is great, although on the engine bay its starting to peel and you can see specs of the metal behind the paint, there is some rust on some of the bolts, and metal parts here and there. I was wondering if anyone knows places in the UK that can repaint your bike and put in new bolts clean some rust off etc etc? Cheers
  11. My mate prepared his bike for winter riding, he acf50'd it, and ofc him being him, he put it on the brakes also. He ended up going out of his garage and crashing into his own car. At least he was only doing about 10mph eh'. He called me over to have a look at his bike because his brakes suddenly stopped working. I arrived and could smell the stench of the acf50 and told him that he is a prick and walked into his kitchen and made myself a coffee.
  12. Watch these youtubers Advancedbiker RoadcraftNottingham McRider
  13. Been riding for over a year now 70 miles a day 5 times a week every day, any weather. I have always been practising motorbike safety rules that you get from advance training. Although I have not done my advance I picked up a lot from certain youtubers, like Advancedbiker, Roadcraftnottingham, McRider, or Police biker videos. So on a right turn I always stick left, away from the white line, every single time, every day. Never have I seen someone go over that white line coming the opposite way - but I kept being safe day after day, never tempted to kiss that line for a nice apex. Then yesterday, someone in a blue van came storming around the corner half his vehicle strayed over that line and almost had me. If I did not contentiously practice the safe riding techniques I would have been clobbered. I know some riders out there who get bored of riding this way especially if they have never seen danger coming there way they start to think all is well lets tempt fate. Well yesterday was a prime example of why to never do this. Keep safe out there, do not tempt fate.
  14. My bike was parked up and someone reversed into it, it took a good hit on both sides they took my 2016 model away and lent me a 2019 model. I really hope they take many months to return it as i am loving this hire bike, everything done free of charge
  15. Well a sun roof is a moon roof depending on time of day and if Honda calls it a fog light then I am not wrong for quoting them
  16. Pinlock applied using a hairdryer works really well have no issue all winter.
  17. Yea but I do not understand how really, I will lower the lights and see if that helps because they are not that powerful. I definitely do not want to dazzle others!
  18. They seem at a good angle in person but alright I will see if that helps, cheers.
  19. Best pic I have for now, no chance in getting one taken tonight bikes all wrapped up and locked away. Tomorrow after I ride it back from work I can take a better one if u still need one https://i.imgur.com/7ynAdrp.jpg' alt='IMGUR>'>
  20. I do not have a clear one of them its just the standard ones that comes with the bike if u pay for the extras
  21. Hi I have the extra lights fitted on my africa twin dubbed as 'fog lights' but they are not that powerful, well i though they werent anyway. All the bikers I see also run their's all the time day or night and so do I. But recently I have been getting flashed by cars for having mine running? Without them I can not see sh*t. Are they really that powerful?
  22. Coughing and jerking normally sounds like something to do with fuelling. I would start your investigation there
  23. Well you can make a magnificent and wealthy career by saying POOOOOOOOOOWWWWWEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRR and the best [inset word] in the world
