  1. Anybody know how far the route is? I'm contemplating coming along, as I'm picking up a thundercat next week, but I wanna make an approximate guess at how much its gonna cost me.
  2. Gaerne's have quite a bit of calf room, and have strech panels and adjustable shin protectors, and for the price, are really good quality.
  3. I would suggest that its mostly the name you buy. However, I wouldnt pay attention to the sharp ratings until you've found a few different models or brands that are a good fit. Then you can use the ratings to narrow it down to the safest one. Just dont buy it based on the rating alone, because it might not fit very well, rendering it pretty useless.
  4. Due to it being an rs, and geared, i believe the restriction is in the cdi, which stops it going over 8k. You have to check if the bridge in the cdi is intact or not. You get to it through the back of the cdi, where its filled in with what appears to be black silicone sealant. Thats what my rs125 is like anyway, and I believe the 50 is pretty much the same.
  5. I was under the impression that they'd just changed the fairings and the rear subframe, making it smaller. But problem solved now, found one from a 2001 bike. Cheers anyway.
  6. Does anybody have any idea if the rear suspension linkage from a 2006 aprilia rs 125 will fit onto a 2001 model?
  7. Just taken the bike for an mot. It now has a massive failure list, most of which i can sort my self no problem, but it also needs a new rear shock and suspension bush, which i dont have the equipment to fit. So i now have to find the money to buy them, and then the money for the garage to fit them. F**K IT!!!!!!!!
  8. No, just had a very drunken game of knuckles which got a bit silly.
  9. A quick drink in town last night turned into a 40 quid session, after which I've woken up this morning incredibly dehydrated, with bruised knuckles and glands that are so swollen I can't eat and it hurts when i swallow. F**k it!
  10. I'll just have a small backpack with me, dont need anything else.
  11. What time are you lot getting there for? N which station d'you want me to go to?
  12. Its up to you if you wanna give me a lift, not too fussed. Just wanna get out of this house for the weekend.
  13. Good thinking about the train. That never occured to me for some reason. I'll deffinately be there now, and I'll chip in for the food aswell.
  14. Anybody going from south manchester area tht i could scrounge a lift with? I have no idea if my bike will be ready in time. I'm heading off to strip it down and get it resprayed now, so just looking for a back up plan.
  15. I'll try and be there. I'm in swansea now to fix the bike, then riding back up north soon as.
