  1. Noticed Newcastle Motorcycles had some Furygan Leathers in and i must say the quality looks realy good Quite pricy but i suppose you get what you pay for and there is a interest free offer so i am toying with the idea Anybody any thoughts on Furygan ?
  2. Thanks for the advice guys .. spot on as always Think i will go down the heated grips path
  3. Now that the colder mornings are here i have decided to invest in some eqp to keep my fingers warm . I have been looking at the Oxford heated grips but i have read that even when you switch them off they still can drain your battery ( is that true ) I would have thought once switched off they would be ok . So i have been looking at the Oxford muffs any advice on which you guys prefer would be great Cheers
  4. Thanks for the input guys Its roll up the sleeves time and get sanding
  5. Busy doing up a scooter for my lad for xmas for his comute to collage ,it runs great but the guy i got it off tried painting the front plastics and made a hash of them as in the paint has cracked so i hope to strip it off and try myself do do a better job . Any advice on what to use to strip it would be great Thanks
  6. Managed to pick up a screw in the rear tyre of my Blade on sun. I repaired it using a temp repair kit and having rang around a few motorcycle tyre places cant find one to repair it ( on saying once you have fixed a temp repair you cant repair after that ) I have noticed the mushroom plug kits on the net but not sure if i should go that road but my head is telling me to bite the bullet and get a new tyre Any advive would be great
  7. Decided to take my blade out for a spin as I have only done 70 miles on it since I got it ' so decided on a trip to the borders first stop Carter bar then onto Howick, Selkirk, then on to Moffat . Passed St Marys Loch first time I had been this way so kept stopping to admire the view Roads were ok apart from a few dodgy bits from Selkirk to Moffat ( lots of loose gravel ) All in all a nice run out 228 miles Sorry for the three same photos but new to posting photos Ha Ha

  15. I have a problem in that my rear indicator on my 2001 cb 750 stops working every now and then I think the problem lies within the unit because when i move the wire it starts working again . Can the unit be stripped down or is it time for a new one ? As always thanks in advance
  16. Hi Guys A lad at work kindly gave me a tank bag that sits on with magnets attached inside the flaps . As my bike only has a small nose screen above the head light i was wondering if there is any chance it may fly off . The lad said it was fine on his bike with a screen ,and thinks it will be ok on mine Any Thoughts Cheers
