  1. It is unfortunate to find out in this way, but it does prove how important it is to do your own checks, and don't just take for granted that all is well, it is so easy nowadays to check a vehicles status, if you see a bike you like, take down the reg number, a few minutes online will tell you everything you need to know about it, it could also give you some bargaining leverage knowing the facts before a sale, good luck with the outcome
  2. All the best for today
  3. I don't know about the legality of the contract, but if the seller sold the bike which should have also had a full MOT, i would think that could be cause for concern as to the road worthiness of the vehicle, trading standards might not be too impressed, i would contact a solicitor, you may have a case to sue, under a breach of contract agreement,
  4. have a look at some metal working forums, you may find a hobbyist local, or see if there is a men's shed local to you,
  5. It makes no difference as to the style,make,type of bike, someone owns it, nobody has the right to attempt or even steal anyone else's bike or property, most people work damn hard for their possessions, if it was up to me it would be 3 strikes, 1st time cut off a finger, 2nd time cut off a hand, 3rd time feeding the fishes or the tigers
  6. Now if only they could find a way to stop them doing it again, I know what i would do to them
  7. wire it up to an electric fence kit, just make sure the stands are isolated, or fit a personal attack alarm with one of them removable pins, and fit it somewhere it could easily be activated if it's moved
  8. I was the same when i got my Xena
  9. So sorry to hear that, the b'tards when caught should be made to do gardening , on a positive note, go get your full licence then do this to the a'holes
  10. Thought it might be nice to share recipes of what you like to cook and bake Pulled Pork, i usually get a cheap cut with plenty of meat on it, normally takes 5-6 hours of slow cooking, high heat for the first 25-30 mins, then turn down to around 150 C, use about a 1 litre of hot water in with the meat, then every 20mins or so tease it apart, it won't completely break down for some time, add more water if needed but only a small amount at a time, then for the last hour and a half, mix some bbq sauce with some honey, the honey will caramelise without burning too much, the amount of sauce will depend on the amount of meat you have, and the mix ratio i use is 2:1 honey to bbq sauce, you will need to keep teasing and pulling, you may need to increase heat to get it to go sticky, took me a lot of trial and error, it can be a bit tough to pull apart at the beginning, don't rush it, it will break down, have fun
  11. try the report button, and leave a message to have it moved, or pm one of the mods to move it,
  12. When i did my CBT, the other lad that was with us, kept getting told by the instructor to switch off his indicator, but as i was in front quite a lot i was always pressing mine just in case it was still on, and i was doing that on my own rides, after turning, press it a few times just to be sure,
  13. ...... Is it mean to ask if you mean the one that's currently in 50+ Pieces? Cos if so, from here forth it's called Jigsaw So got my new steed him so do the honours... here's a couple The Flash, or The Red Baron,
  14. Nice!, sounds like you're nearly there with the engine not bad going for a few hours graft over the weekend

    The last one to fly XH558 is residing here at Donny airport,
  16. you can do the same with wood, just glue some strips round the edge of the plywood,
  17. before you start the engine, crack open the drain plug and just nip it up, then when engines warm will be much less fuss removing it,
  18. Maiden ride done, thoroughly enjoyed it, went round my local streets, then took some minor roads to get me close enough to fuel up, without having to have much travelling on the A18, but it was fine managed the major roundabouts without issue, filled up with pay at the pump, to save messing with helmet, went on my again, back down the same way, but pulled into an industrial estate, place was empty, big car parks, so was able to practice figure of eights, U-turns, plenty of slow riding and clutch control, the bike itself is a very comfortable ride, suspension is great, handles bumps effortlessly, was able to go through all the gears, the braking is much better than on the YBR that i did my CBT on, probably because it is dual braking, next run out will be longer and will be going further afield with some long roads and just cruise
  19. In these situations you have to go with what you feel most comfortable with, hope it all goes right
  20. I'm not sure, but if it is paid as friends and family, the process can't be reversed there is no buyer protection using that method, but just check with PP's terms and conditions
  21. I will, going to go round my local streets first just to get a feel for her, 20mph speed limit, then will move onto some quietish roads i know
  22. Maiden ride planned for tomorrow afternoon , I have been waiting, for what seems like an eternity for this day to come
