  1. Had to be scottish
  2. Worst case you've just cracked the engine oil sump. It could be that the oil plug wasn't tighten enough and become loose with the crunch. Put your brave face and just find out what happened. Think of it like a dentist appointment, maybe it will hurt or maybe is just a check-up visit
  3. Can you plug a heater and make the place where you're spraying warmer? You want around 20 - 25C ideally and low humidity level. IR radiators or gas heaters are good for removing moisture from air while heating a small area. I'm in Scotland so cold 350 days / yr. When I sprayed the bike's fairings I had the fan heater on all the time, around 2hr before start and 1hr after so the paint starts to cure in warm low moisture environment.
  4. Scotland have names for pretty much everything. On the roads the most common being "Ye phoquink cant"...
  5. You can always opt for the monthly payment although they will charge you an arm and a leg on the interest rate. But that is just the result of new rider. Just come to mind if a dual camera system would have any impact.
  6. On a rare event I've renewed with Dean & Grove https://www.grove-dean-insurance.co.uk/ They were closest to the cheaper quote with only £3 difference but includes breakdown cover.
  7. If you can build some locked shelter, like a metal shed, you then can tell the insurance company that the bike is in a locked garage. That will bring the insurance premium down. Unfortunately there is not much you can do about being a new rider. I don't think it will allow you to add a more experienced rider to the policy to bring the premium down as you do with cars. One thing it will also bring it down is security devices like disk locks and heavy duty chains.
  8. What will "hurt" your bike on what relates to gear shifting will be high revs while you're trying the "bite point" of the clutch causing it to be worn sooner than supposed. Another thing to avoid is changing gear without applying the clutch. This is probably what will damage the gearbox the most. Just not matching the revs while operating the clutch had little effect on it. It is the clutch's main purpose to smooth the rev differential so you're just using it for its purpose. Perfection come with practice, Don't expect to be an expert during the first few years. Even more experienced riders (+20yr) will at some point have a dodgy shift
  9. It doesn't if you use a couple layers of weed membrane under it. Still a lot less than a planted garden
  10. WHAT A PHOQUING IDIOT!!!! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-tayside-central-55950942
  11. Who needs plants?
  12. Aren't boulders the most beautiful things....
  13. Then you wonder why people call you twat...
  14. I'm the kinda guy, all or nothing Why does it say 72 if you can't use it?
  15. Exactly my face when you mentioned zero zero zero on the sky my first thought was that you lost it then I thought was some astronomic coordinates Just now google shown some war tv series.
  16. In Scotland that will be just another cloud.
  17. Just found out this feature in the forum. you can change this to this Just double click on the emoji once you have inserted it and you will have a menu where you can adjust the size. Never mind, it doesn't work
  18. IT'S OFFICIAL!! I've lost my mind The worst bit is that I love it A couple days ago I spent a fortune on a Huawei watch and dedicated earphones. I had completely abandoned wristwatch around 2011 when I realised that I always had a visible clock no matter where I was. Laptop, phone, car, living room, bedroom.. So what was the point in having the extra weight? So the Seiko was left in the drawer and I never looked at it again. So why getting one now? I hear you ask. Well... this one, although heavier than a regular medium size watch have a lot more features than the old Seiko. I can now keep an eye on heart rate, stress levels, blood O2 level, quality of sleep (in my opinion the best feature in it) and a few more useless features like steps taken (yeah right anything over 100 steps and I'll drive there). With it I got the best earphones I've ever had. Wireless, connects to everything that will transmit sound over bluetooth and the battery will last almost the whole day. In the few days I've had it I've worryingly learnt quite a bit about my poor sleeping habits That I was correct about my stress That regardless of the watch telling me I donn't give a phoq about my weight Yes I usually spend as little as I can if I can't get stuff for free but on certain items, cheap is usually more expensive. So I don't do false economy and if is something I really want I just go for it. Same ideology I used when I got the zumo XT PS: And I don't give a f*ck about what the missus says
  19. I can't believe you can't hit a note on a piano, those things have lots of keys Probably, although you hit the right keys. Maybe is just not at the right time
  20. Can imagine how stressing it can be There is a reason why they are called "garage bands" Maybe you just need to join in, like piano while the girl is on the sax
  21. Broken link and I don't have crapface anyway so she's 1 year older than my daughter I've heard of that festival but never been there, but I know enough to know she must be bloody good to enter it
  22. You've just become my favourite yourkshirian Would love to learn saxophone but there are too many keys.
  23. Lol. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-essex-56012101
  24. Maybe I could mount some paddles on the sadow and have a clearing run
  25. Don't do off road Treid to clear it up yesterday but stopped as soon the snow started falling again. Don't think will be clearing up before the weekend.
