  1. I would have slugged him, a blue badge doesn't mean you can park like a twat, we had one, but since moving to wheelchair accessible vehicle it became redundant, we didn't need it as the wheelchair goes through the rear via a ramp, so we don't use disabled spaces as it's pointless for us, and as for parking anywhere, yes you can to a degree as long as you don't cause an obstruction, it is nob's like that, that give blue badge holders a bad rep
  2. Extra life insurance
  3. Cruiser and light don't really go together, mine is a 125cc and weighs in at 172kg, the only thing i can suggest is have a look around, and try some for size, sitting on them, and feeling their weight and balance, will give you some idea, good luck, and hope you get what you want
  4. When i was out and about yesterday, i nipped to Sainsbury's, had loads of people complimenting the bike on how it looks etc, they could not believe it was a 125
  5. until you smell your leathers in a month or so ... either shorts or base layers .. beauty is that if at stop and its hot you can remove trousers and still be decent . Maybe dynax goes to nudist places so he would stay decent It's on my bucket list, if i ever get the chance to go, Croatia has some great nudist beaches

    Should be possible, but will be pricey, the paint won't be cheap, as it will need additives to make it flexible enough for plastic,
  8. Well i did today, i got all geared up, and i was sweating before i even started, and was very tight and rubbing a bit, so went back indoors and removed the unnecessary item, was a huge relief, and felt much better, so in future on hot days, it will be the norm
  9. Nice!, keep it shiny side up
  10. I usually go commando, prefer the extra bit of freedom
  11. I can't see the point in buying a bike to restrict it, surely it makes more sense to buy a bike up to the limit, then move it on, once you have got your full A licence
  12. Why just the two choices? I think there should be more choice in the matter, you know, sparkle it up with a bit of razzmatazz. They're as good as dead anyway so I reckon there should be a wild-card option where the victim's family get to chose whatever they want. Thrown into a pit of Vipers, or a tank with Piranhas
  13. Not all injuries are visible at the time, my SIL, had a bump a couple of years ago, it was only 6 months later that a problem arose due to the accident, and never accept their first offer
  14. Rapists and pedo's should be castrated
  15. use a leather conditioner, leather needs to be kept reasonably moisturised as it will dry and shrink and crack
  16. There has to be a balance, and a punishment must fit the crime, capitol punishment should only be a last resort, and repeat offenders made an example of, how many chances do people need to change, the one's that do need to be eliminated, are the drug dealers and pusher's
  17. Hmmm, could have a ride to the Wildlife park, that'll get the primates going ape
  18. Good luck, and let us know how you get on, and have a look at the map, https://www.themotorbikeforum.co.uk/app.php/map, top one is member locations, and below is a map of cafes and meeting places
  19. On reflection, you might be in a better position to your DAS, and i think the majority of members, would probably say that would be the best way forward for you
  20. Most people would recommend doing CBT first, then have a look at bikes, but you also need to take into account the insurance costs, which can be more than the price of the bike, and don't forget to budget for clothing and a helmet, i had a budget of £3600, for everything, i ended up at closer to £4300, but i saw a bike that i had to have, and i bought that first, then had to shop around for insurance, then i got my helmet and clothing, then i did the CBT, completely back to front to the way it is usually done, but it worked for me
  21. Where are you based, have a look for some instructors, i phoned around a few near me, as i initially wanted to do mine over 2 days, morning one day, then the road work on the second, and as i phoned around i found one that could do it over 2 days and was £40 cheaper than anywhere else, but i managed to get it done in one day, but if you phone around and explain your situation, most will be able to help
  22. Nice! enjoy
  23. Ideal candidate to get paintballed
  24. I haven't cleaned mine yet, only done 70km, but i have got some chain cleaner one of them brushes and some banana scented dry lube, didn't know it was flavoured till i got home and read the instructions
  25. Have you got a full car licence, or are you starting as a new learner/driver, the reason i ask, is it might help to get a 50cc geared bike, and get used to riding, you can then practice at your leisure what you do on the CBT, the CBT is mainly to let the instructor know that you are safe to ride on the road, and can handle riding in different situations
