  1. Its a sailing thing!... For reefing your sails!
  2. Simon .. I wonder if it will affect a certain "hooligan" we both know?
  3. Looking at the advert it says MOT until SEPTEMBER!.... If you buy it make sure its MOT'd until after September! .. You have plans for early September and don't want any hiccups!
  4. "As well as a lovely light slip and assist clutch, the V-Strom’s gearbox is slick and precise." https://www.bennetts.co.uk/bikesocial/reviews/bikes/suzuki/v-strom-1000-2014-used#engine-gearbox-and-exhaust
  5. Head towards a Vstrom specific forum and ask about gearboxes on there. The only thing sloppy about my 650 Vstrom gearbox is the operator!

    Bar end mirrors

    Just so you know, there is NO legal requirement for a motorcycle to have mirrors! My first motorcycle never had them and I survived!... Mind you I could twist and turn my neck a lot more back then!

    Not me!.. I never really liked scooters .. My mates had scooters and bikes .. I had a car!

    Try this!...
  10. Wet belts are a pain!.. Wife's Peugeot 208 has one .. The belt slowly disintegrates and clogs the oil strainer in the sump causing low oil pressure .. supposed to last 60,000 miles .. It lasted 30,000 miles.
  11. A helmet cam won't help if someone runs into the back of you! ... Why not look for a (cheap) front and rear camera that's attached to the bike?
  12. You say you have failed mod 2 six times .. Why did you fail the other 5 times? ..
  13. Sad but true!... If a thief wants to steal it then nothing will stop them...
  14. I use this when I'm out and about ... https://www.sportsbikeshop.co.uk/motorcycle_parts/content_prod/539523 And keep the bike hidden away i my garage when at home!
  15. For me it would depend on the value of the bike I'm trying to sell!.. Less than £1,000 I'll probably let them have a test ride if I think they're OK. More than £1,000 and I'll probably want cash in hand first.
