That is what really winds me up, the scum have the law on their side, but the victims have jack

They might have mistook you for Geofferz, and wanted you to spank their bottoms

Have you tried Chorlton ok, ok , coat time, i know , well actually bed time, Xena's calling me, no not my bike, my dvd box set

An A1 is for your 125 licence, what about going for your A2 as a compromise, will allow you to ride a more powerful bike, i think an A2 test requires a bike with a minimum of 35 bhp,

you can also use your own bike to do the cbt, as long as your current one is still valid, and your bike is road legal, tax,mot, insurance etc,

It's all the same test, an A1 will restrict you to 125's, an A2 will restrict you to 47 BHP, and an A licence is unrestricted, it just depends on the size of the bike at the time when you do the test

Give them a choice, National Service or be executed

you should see some of the micro boats that are being built nowaday's ">

Perfect solution, i was wondering about being able to tow a boat to go fishing with, now the brain has something to chew on

Have a look on the map, there are a couple of cafes in the north pennines area

[mention]Gerontious[/mention] yes it has a centre stand, and tubed tyres , and i do agree with the recovery, otherwise i would need to have a pit crew following, every time i went out on the bike

Round my way, there was a nob, who had a sports quad, riding around all hours, over grassed areas, pavements, being very anti social, his noise levels were sky high, haven't seen him around for some time, probably been arrested, crashed, or no longer around, so relatively peaceful now

I would practice, do the same as you would for your test or cbt, just practice the slow maneauver's,

Which race did he win then

Ah, proper bushcraft, now you're talking

When i did my cbt, my instructor was adamant about " owning your lane", basically meaning to keep central as much as possible, on my second ride on my own bike, i had some twat up my arse, so i slowed down and held him back, always checking my mirrors to see what he was doing, then when he backed off, i resumed normal speed , i won't allow anyone to try and intimidate me, and if i did get a nudge i'll just leave it there To be honest this isnt smart. Brake checking someone can cause serious incident or even a gradual slowdown can cause them to get frustrated. Last thing you want is an emotional driver behind you. Probably not, but most drivers when they see L plates, usually assume a wet behind the ears teenager, they would soon find out otherwise

Everyone has there own view on this but my experience with smaller bikes is that they are often over geared. The engine doesn't have the torque to hold top gear at high speed. Fitting a smaller front cog just one tooth less can transform performance. Not only increasing acceleration in all gears but enabling the engine to be at the right rpm to hold top gear better. In theory the overall top speed is decreased of course, but in practice I found it enabled me to hold higher speeds. I was forever revving it in fifth, then into sixth, at which point is slowed down until I was back in fifth again. With the smaller cog it could hold sixth against the wind resistance and even climb modest gradients. As factory my 125 rarely got over 60, with the smaller front cog it would cruise at 65 hitting the limiter at 68. Hence slipstreaming wagons made life more comfortable, if at times somewhat geographically challenging. Interesting, mine hasn't been completely run in yet, about 60 miles on the clock, but i have had it to 60 mph, with plenty of throttle left, but until it's run in , i can't really see the top end performance, but the lower end is pretty quick for a heavy bike, but i do need to get the rev's up, also there is no rev counter, which makes it impossible, or the very least difficult to judge rpm's, plus there is not much in the way of general info about it, which doesn't help with research, the jjoy's of biking

I have read about tooth count on the front and rear sprockets, does it make much of a difference ?, sorry for

You're talking about your car here I presume , not Xena . Correct , I doubt i would take her on the m'way, even if i do get my full licence, would be suicide on a 125

I would say that many drivers, are unable to judge another vehicles speed, when i come onto a motorway, by the time i reach the point where i can enter the nearside lane, i will be at the speed limit, then it's just a case of judging to either increase or decrease my speed depending on where the vehicles are, there have been many times when i have slowed to go behind a vehicle, then straight into the middle lane and floor it, but if the slip road has a long lead in, i would just floor it to get in front, but each situation is different, and all depends on your own driving ability and confidence or lack of, experience is the best teacher

Probably best to avoid motorways

Said in a spitting image accent...."allo allo allo, and were was you on the morning of *** and at the time of ****? and have you got any witnesses that can back this up sir"? Yes!, i was doing a bank job in the next town

Buy the road, then clamp the buggers

Seems a sensible option, depending on cost, and lifespan of the tyre
