Hi, I need to get a right-hand wing mirror for the 2010 Kawasaki ER-6F. Only the glass mirror bit is broken, amazingly the stalk is fine. This mirror, however, is the funky angled version and none of the non-dealer sources seem to stock the 2010 version. The full dealer price for a RH wing mirror unit is over £40. Any one have one to sell, or ideas where I could get just the mirror? I tried a glass/mirror shop, and they would not cut to size. Thanks Alison

Oh No, can't make it now, and I was all psyched up for it!! Hope everyone has a fab ride, and I'll be along to a ride soon. Cheers Alison (p.s. have just done my first 5000 miles on the bike, in 8 months, with 2 months off in the deep of winter, woohoo

the weather is so lovely, can't wait for the weekend and Matlock is calling! I'll be heading up (+/- a couple of others) from Banbury! Alison

Hi, I am looking for a tank bag which is slim (or expandible) but preferably hard shelled. To take a small laptop and change of clothes ... (the eternal change of clothes for work issue). I though I saw someone with something similar, which was like a mini briefcase, but cant seem to identify it online! Any ideas? I currently use a backpack, which works pretty well, but covers up my hi-vis. Thanks Alison ER-6F

Where in Matlock? thanks Alison

Thanks folks for the encouragements - I WILL get there, i WILL

Nerves keep getting the better of me... in my last Mod2, I was doing fine. all goin smooth and up to speeds "businesslike" - then I stalled at a junction, got nervous, stalled again soon after, and then it was all downhill as I was so nervous about stalling again that the examiner failed me for not-making-progress. How do I stop getting so nervous in all these tests? I had the same problem in Mod1 (nerves) and my instructor says I ride just fine. I just don't test fine

Is one better than t'other? Kevlar type jeans (Draggin or RedRoute) or Jeans made from leather?

Took my Mod1 a coupla weeks ago, bundle of nerves, and forgot to breathe. Did not pass due to clipping a cone in the swerve. Took Mod1 again today, first 9.5 minutes went great, cones smooth, swerve fine, U-turn within the lines, then was sent out to do the E-stop, came around the corner, waiting, waiting, waiting for the signal, and grabbed front/stomped on rear, skid, fail. Very sad But, it could've been a kid...

Hi newbie quesiton - do you wear a back protector underneath the leathers? My leather jacket does not have one. thanks ALison
