  1. I've been toying with the idea of getting some too. The thing I've noticing is that cheaper ones come with low capacity batteries while the more expensive ones will have a better battery. Like in everything, you get what you're paying for.
  2. Considering that decent heated grips will cost around £50 to £80 and I found that I can get a good pair of heated gloves for £40 it makes me think that I'll be better off with the gloves. Advantage is that you can take them with you until you get indoors. Easier to replace if they get faulty while grips you have to dismantle half of the bike (ST1300 in my case). downside is you will need more than 1 battery pack for long trips. How good are they? No idea...
  3. After covering it in saw dust while doing some diy it was time to clean again the vacuum chambers and the sliding black thingy in the VT700 carbs. Now just need to figure out how the f*cking hoses are connected.
  4. Considering the speed EU usually moves this is lightning fast
  5. There is a reason why that never took of Look at those ludicrous shorts...
  6. Setenave was the sister company from Lisnave Lis as in Lisbon and Set as in Setubal Because Setnave is a lot smaller than Lisnave they managed to keep running. Lisnave closed for a short period back in the 70's but because at the time was the largest dry dock in the world it was the only place where the largest tankers could be serviced so they had to open it again. But a few years later other large docks opened so they start making even less money and closedown. Note that both Setenave and Lisnave are located in Setubal district. https://ecmarine.com/setubal.html A brief history of Lisnave
  7. @dynax have a forum for tw@ts???? Where? Where?
  8. Maybe they will stick a finger and taste it. if doesn't taste bad it's clean
  9. I had my first Nolan for 7 years. Then moved to UK and when I got the VFR I got a Shark that made 4 years I'm back to Nolan going 2 years now and it will run until something starts to malfunction, like visor mechanism or the flip-up starts to play up. 5 years is advisory but we are responsible to ensure we have a proper lid. @Tiggie ieda is quite a good one
  10. Lisnave has been closed for a very long time and they have slowly dismantle it. The project was to turn it into a sea front similar what was done in '98 in north Lisbon in the Parque das nações (Expo 98) The good news is that the bars and cafes still exist, there are a few more of them https://www.google.com/maps/@38.6879698,-9.1479931,3a,75y,238.72h,87.18t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1scj-IZnCFiO3QCcg4Wm21Xw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656 The 2 older restaurants in Cacilhas are still there apparently A Cabrinha and A Cacilheira the first one used to serve the best seafood you could have. https://www.google.com/maps/@38.6871604,-9.1479635,3a,62.1y,294.36h,93.14t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1so4etS_g-VbhUE1bpmK3BmA!2e0!7i13312!8i6656
  11. Do i sense some kind of dislike for spiritual people?
  12. On the other hand for people from Porto, Portugal is Porto, the rest is landscape.
  13. Err... YEAH!! like in the UK, yorkies are not as clever as down south
  14. Of course I miss it. Still remember complaining about the cold when was 15c And thinking that I was going to die when it was 8c riding 365 days a year (or almost) I lived in Lisbon (Almada on the south side of the river to be more precise) all my life and it is a superb place with the most friendly people. Except when tourist behave like eegits, then they get ignored
  15. They are both plants used in alleviating joint pain and have anti-inflammatory effect. Some people prefer one to the other. personally I used devil's claw because I feel it works better for me. Doesn't mean it can't be swap from time to time to avoid the body getting used to it. You can buy it from Holland & Barret or online shops. If you're tight as me you get a capsule machine and make them yourself
  16. I started with knees, then ankle joints. Nowadays, because of reduced exercise it's in my hands. The only remedy for it, and as a delay only, is living in a sunny place. Cod liver oil and cat's or devil's claw if like me you don't like chemicals.
  17. Then people wonder why I don't like crapbook... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-55328376 I would nominate it's owner as TOTY...
  18. Maybe you should consider a nappy...
  19. A less environmental solution is to get a small petrol generator and plug it to the train. should get a decent charge in 1hr
  20. AH! Just put some solar cells on the roof of the trains then
  21. Get some cocoa powder, is usually no sugar so you can control it better. Just need to simmer in hot milk for a few minutes and (in my opinion) tastes better than normal hot chocolate
  22. The jar will be empty all the time because she will take all the coins
  23. A battery should hold the charge easily for 1 week. My Honda's goes flat after 10 days because of the H.I.S.S. but I got an Oxford trickle charger to keep it top condition. If you don't have alarm or any safety device that stays awake 24/7 then unfortunately I would think it is in fact something draining the battery. Refer to my first comment. Get a multimeter and start chasing it. You could be lucky and find it in 1hr
  24. No pics, didn't happen.
  25. STUFF FROM WISH????? Are you trying to get a TOTY nomination??
