And dont forget that next years prices rises will be the steepest in a long long time..... But they aren't pushing people away from using public transport!

When are we going to start teaching trail braking?
Fish replied to Pbassred's topic in Motorbike Chat
When I completed the BikeSafe course earlier in the year on my 125, one of the main comments from the wonderful officer was about trail braking in corners and that I should stop doing that. If it makes me feel comfortable then I'm happy to carry on with it to be honest. -
Now I usually buy myself something for Xmas, but this year I am really stumped as to what I want. Anyone else having the same problem or is it just me.
-
Most modern 125's will hit close to 70, so not slow by any means. Sort your budget out, but anything Japanese should be enough

From a work experience Morrisons like to hide items under the stairs out back..... They hid our £90k server whilst denying they had received it.

Time! Plus in these road conditions even dry will not have the same levels of grip as during the summer months.

I'm with @Pie man, weekend rides if the weather is decent or to commute if required

I found that business use made quite a decent difference. Depending if my work changes and I complete my current secondment probahation period I might well drop the business off it.

A lot depends on the method of postage/shipping used by the supplier.

I'm looking on the Calsport and Sports bike shop websites and the wider web , but SBS would be the choice. So some imply they are supplying cheap knock off rubbish

Can anyone tell me the difference between the Akrapovic from a dealer with the lazer etched logo and the other Akrapovic with what looks like a sticker on the side?

Tell him to buy her a bike outfit and a helmet, then she can come along on your rides.

Early start with a trip to Worcester then onto Redditch and back home, a little under 350 miles round trip. Thumbs are sore, back is starting to ache now

I've never ridden with panniers on before and I've got a long journey on Monday/Tuesday and thought I'd take the bike as it's looking dry. So put those bags on the back and went for a motorway cruise to see what difference there was. Surprised there didn't see much at all.
-
After a boring work teams call, I put all the warm gear on and went for a nice 4 hour ride. A couple of stops of tea and a butty, but otherwise I enjoyed the relitivly quite roads around Kent.

They are ONLY ending the ability to use Visa CREDIT cards, not debit cards. I have a feeling that Visa global will step in and get this resolved, as Visa UK have been taking the pi$$ for many years now.

I might have had an idea what they was for. But as it is not an official plod emblem there's not much they can officially do.

I had one of these on a Subaru back in the day. Once when I was stopped by the law, for some reason they kept asking if I was 'job'. I kept telling them I had a job and didn't understand what they was implying They started getting quite upset, and requesting me to remove it. When I asked why they wouldn't tell me, so I refused. Nice waste of 45 mins conversation with two seemingly nice officers.

I'm looking for 125cc geared motorcycle to let
Fish replied to Orcun's topic in For Sale and Wanted - Motorbike related
Welcome to the forum, sadly you'll struggle to find anyone being it company or person hiring 125's. -
When I was taking my 125 into London for work, I'd use an alarm disclock and a fairly decent chain/lock combo on the rear. Around something that wont move also helps.

Replacement sleeve for Oxford hex chain
Fish replied to London_Rider's topic in Clothing, Luggage, Accessories and Security
Drop Oxford customer services an email. They've been helpful when I've contacted them in the past. -
Buying a flip front lid. (noob question!)
Fish replied to lughole's topic in Clothing, Luggage, Accessories and Security
The best advice I can give is to get down the bike shop and try on as many as you can/want to, keeping a note of which ones feel the best. Once you've tried the bulk on and got the list of those you preferred, put those on for 10-15 mins each and see which is the most comfortable, which leaves pressure marks on your head. -
I put the warm layer into my textiles as it's getting a little chilly out there

Just home after 2 nights in Bradford. Midland Hotel, decent enough with it starting to show signs of wear. Just the weather and the fact I had to traevl over 4 hours each way that did it!
