  1. I worked for a company that will remain unnamed that the day I handed my resignation they asked me to handover everything and I wasn't working for them anymore. Got paid the notice period and managed to start with another company immediately
  2. Probably just a civic

    Hi and welcome to the forum from the far East
  4. You won't believe it but. Jakarta on my way to Lisbon for 4 days Some eegit in a bank phoked up some documents and I have to go there
  5. Adding to the green card make sure you have the original V05. Various countries have different requirements for bikers and you must comply with all of them. As example, Portugal and Austria forbid the use of GoPro cameras...
  6. You will need your green card. Check in your policy which countries are covered outside the EU. EU is usually covered by default. Like someone said. Make sure you get a decent European breakdown cover. Cheap will probably take you to Turkey or Tunisia
  7. One way, personally the best one, to control your low speed ride is to use the rear break while maintaining the acceleration on and counter lean on the bike. Not sure if this was mentioned up there yet Sounds counter-intuitive but it will work wonders at low speed
  8. All depends how long you have. In theory yes it is possible. You will have entry requirements for EU countries plus possible visas for non EU ones. Keep in mind you will find it very hard to get insurance for Europe for longer than 30 days per trip and 90 per year.
  9. Time to take a picture of both OEM and JT side-by-side and return it
  10. Sounds like you're missing the back shims (check the spelling please) Having said that, the movement is lateral and wouldn't affect the wear of the sprocket. It will be worn by the chain before any other damage is done

    Tents?......

    As personal preference I would go for anything around 2m high so I wouldn't have to be a cockroach several times a day. You can get an air tent (no frame) starting around 300 quid for 3 people.
  12. The biggest problem with those switches, and that's for all brands and models, is the spring effect the contacts need to have. With time and heat they will become weaker and will stop working. Refurbishment without replacing the copper or brass contacts will be a short term fix.Aibe you will fix a replacement in AliExpress or Alibaba They will be the same as OEM but without the fancy bag or box
  13. Have a great day mate
  14. A bus stop with a charging point
  15. You will be in the Alpes, of course you will be cold Remember to buy the environmental sticker before (or just after entering) entering Austria. Usually for sale on services on motorway or you can just ask. Expect rain, wind, sunny, cold, warmth and fabulous weather all in same day A bit like Scotland but without the adorable midges I crossed Austria to Slovenia and never found anyone controlling the speed. Mind you, I was with a trailer and you can't speed on the Alpes with it.
  16. I did that but never went for the final test. Stop paying for annual fee. You can learn a lot with the training. In my opinion everything else is just an excuse to waste money. The slow speed manoeuvring is one of the best things you get from it.
  17. Good evening troops A wee home delivery ramen soup for £3.80
  18. Start with the tyre manufacturer recommendations then adjust to your riding style, weight and weather conditions. Cooler temperature would mean higher pressure. Your weight should also be taken in consideration. Heavier rider should have a couple extra pounds pressure. Sporty riding would mean lower pressure, this because faster riding will heat up the tyres more increasing the pressure. So you don't need setting out on higher pressure as you would need for more moderate riding style. Rain or wet conditions would mean dropping a couple psi to increase the contact surface. Important is to check it before every ride. Daily if you're touring
  19. I wonder if you can get good android app that could run on a tablet for image/video editing. Most are fairly cheap and Android is always less demanding on hardware.
  20. Be weary of external drives. I would strongly advise spending the money in cloud storage instead. I lost around 3000 photos because my WD drive decided to stop working. Cloud services will end up being around the same price as external drive and easier to recover if something goes pear shape
  21. I think you need to visit PC specialists website to give you an idea of what spec you want. You can personalize everything from graphic card, memory, processor, etc. As you change the specs it will automatically adjust the price. Then you will get a better understanding of what you will need and go to laptops direct for a deal. I agree with @Bender better spec = longer life span. My old laptop wasn't cheap but lasted 14 years
  22. I got my last laptop from https://www.laptopsdirect.co.uk/ They have a range depending on what you need it for. Another great place is pc specialists You can Google them
  23. When i say: "If I need your opinion, I'll phoking ask for it." Doesn't mean you become my sex advisor
