I bought a Shoei back in February and didn't look like that when it came out of the box. I didn't buy it on the interweb though. That is one item that can vary so much in size and fit that it has to be a shop bought one for me. It's probably a new one but it looks as thought it's been tried on by someone, sent back to the shop and repackaged for posting out again to another punter.

he has built around 5-6 for people now and he has got 3 more to build of top of my head.
Just looking at the original post here......and when you consider the OP hasn't been on for some years it does raise some alarm bells.
After all, the top of someone's head is no substitute for a Hydraulic Motorcycle Lift.

What did I do wrong here? would photoshop help perhaps?
Slight under exposure due to excessive light reflection from snow. Apart from that fine.

We got a refund for a non refund allowed hotel, not sure how that worked, might have been down to Paris being shut.
win win
we have been offered a voucher so far for everything which I am happy with as I still want to go to Germany
Just don't mention the war.

I've dabbled for years (mostly with film, which is still my preference) without really getting any better. Then I went to a Don McCullin exhibition last year, which inspired me to give up completely.
Don McCullin one of the true greats of photography. There was a recent documentary about him a few months ago on BBC4. Well worth watching if it comes around again.

What better way to spend your birthday than walking round a ghost town wearing a mask and rubber gloves!
Livin' the F*cking Dream here!
Better than having someone behind you snapping on some rubber gloves
Happy birthday boyo. -
Used the alignment lines on the chain adjusters when putting my back wheel back on after removing it to clean the swingarm properly. When i took it back out it felt really wonky, it was quite unsettling.
I measured between the swingarm pivot and axel nuts on both sides and the chain side 5mm less.
Could 5mm really be enough to that much trouble, i will sort it before i use it again but we are still locked up atm.

I've used Pyramid in the past and found them to be good quality and fit.

Sorry to say this @XTreme, dog kennels in my neighbourhood are bigger and smarter than that. So, not much really.
Where's that exactly?
Just South of the border, down Mexico way.

Waiting on the same railway platform as Geoffrey Boycott after a match he was commentating on. What a great bloke and very easy to talk to. He didn't mind in the least being amongst the peasants and having a yarn.

Death wish rider. The link seems ok.

Make a proper vid out on the bike!
An Irish mate of mine sent me a vid of his bike today with a commentary that consisted of his attempt at a Welsh accent. Which sounded really weird.
So I reciprocated!
Brilliant! There's lovely

Twat being the operative word for the idiot wearing it.

Hi and welcome to the forum.
I have the Softail Streetbob which is pretty much the same bike. Whilst the power is within the range that the A2 lets you ride once restricted I'm not sure it would be rideable once choked down to 35kW. I love the Milwaukee 8 motor They aren't exactly earth shattering at full power. First thing everyone does is a stage 1 conversion (Exhaust / high flow air filter/ tuner) to give more power.
If I were you I'd go for one of the midrange Japanese cruisers for 2 years until you have your full license. The big heavy bikes need big motors I'm afraid. Loads of great stuff to choose from though.
The power unit on the FXDB is just terrific. Best thing about the bike imho. OH and the semi apes were pretty cool too.

I have started using the free plastic gloves that are by the pumps for diesel users.
Possibly an over reaction but I don't know who used that pump before me.
Cheers

I used them before cvid-19 came into existence.

It being such a nice day in Cov, I got the patio furniture cushions out of the garage ....

Look what some furry bast*rd’s done!!
Wasn’t anything in the cushions, well, not once I’d danced the fandango over them to be sure !!
Fu’kin furry fu’kers
Just to add to your misery.. the DFS sale is finally over. So.. you've missed out.

And the legs hop over to France
You know you're eating it when you spit out a tiny ribcage on your plate. Tastes a bit like chicken.
Sounds very much as if you are speaking from experience?
Cheers

I am "ribbit".

Ironically Frog is a very popular source of food in China.
