Is that a direct quote from Mr Flyn or Mr Mercury? Cheers Ian

We all did back in the day lol. Wouldn`t be surprised if nanny state has changed things since then though. Bet unrestricted AP50`s or FS1E`s are a fair price now. Cheers Ian

He is a nice guy and I am sure you will be ok. Cheers Ian

Well done @dynax hope it works out for you! Cheers Ian

Wot no beer for the journey ? Cheers Ian

If Malton near York is better for you I would give John Warrington a call. A very nice guy and very knowledgeable. Cheers Ian

Just looked on Wemoto and friction and steel clutch plates come up at about £100 so if you are planning on keeping the bike for the forseeable future it seems a reasonable price to me. Good luck with whatever you decide and enjoy the trip. Cheers Ian

Totally agree with this suggestion and indeed its why our trip this year will be the reverse route as laid out. We will arrive Santander then after an overnight stop near Bilbao take a relaxing trip over the Pyrenees via Andorra to Perpignan then onto our base for the next week in Minnevois and return via Calais with a stop off enroute. Cheers Ian

Damn I paid the dealer extra for a backrest and rack lol. She is fun especially between about 60 and 90 though. Cheers Ian

Very similar ! Mine is stage 2as well looks like just the seat is different reall. Cheers Ian

I have owned the Tiger 1050 and now the 1200Gtpro and if it is anything like it`s bigger siblings then the Tiger 660 will be well worth a test ride. Cheers Ian

Very cool.Thanks as I said we are still planning the route so most appreciated. Cheers Ian

A hill .......................................................... In Norfolk ??? lol. Cheers Ian

Thanks for that I will have a good read of that. Cheers Ian

Really interested in this as spent last night planning a route from Santander over the mountains to the Carcassone area via Andorra for Sept this year. Any suggestions will be gratefully received. Cheers Ian

You are not alone, the same appears to be happening down here. Hence my recent purchase of a 2005 CG125 to do up and see if the other half will take to being on the front end the way she took to the rear lol. My rationale was that as it`s a Honda I will be unlikely to lose on it. Cheers Ian

Yes I had forgotten the Hel thing, it was a thumb operated unit under the left grip if I recall? Much enjoyed by the stunters up at Santa Pod. Cheers Ian

Great minds think alike Sir! Cheers Ian

Have you tried speaking with the NABD (National Assoc of Riders with a Disability) They should be able to put you in touch with someone. Cheers Ian

Hi Mike The saet is by Viper. The only place I can see images of them these days is the just bandits website but I am sure they are still about. Cheers Ian

Not a bad little bimble and very happy with the improvements. Cheers Ian

We are aiming for a bimble on the ZRX now the tail is back from repairs and Dream Machine paint and I get to try the Dymags !!! Hoping for good weather. Maybe continue running in Tigger on Sunday as weekends from now are going to be back working on the house lol. Cheers Ian

Name and shame if there is any more grief ! Ironically I have dealt with timber frame companies a lot over the last 30 or so years and I feel they only come in 2 varieties Absolute brilliant or absolute cr*p with no in between. Cheers Ian

Sidestand version just needs a hinged circular end to be padlocked round the lower frame rail and a solid circular end for the stand to be passed through. I am sure it won`t be quite that simple lol. Cheers Ian
