  1. 170 mile 5hr round trip, weather depending (now a fair weather rider) i'll attend
  2. Old age question with no real answer other than if they want it, they will get it, so by making it harder to get, they might not be bothered etc etc etc etc 10% of the value of your bike should be spent on security - so they say. I have the factory fitted alarm/immobiliser, as well as factory fitted Datatool. I also have a cheap sim card that pings me an SMS every 30 seconds if it moves out of a designated area, & my bike is stored in a shipping container with 2 abloy locks - #paranoia However whilst i am out on the road, due diligence is the key, & not being further than earshot/eyesight from your bike. And would i stop a thief/thieves? Depends on how many, and what they are carrying.
  3. I bought this, small but very streamline. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07213QBWG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_t1_LxfABb52B89B4
  4. Have not worked now, took some translation studying & the app is not the best, but it keeps me happy.
  5. The one from amazon in my previous link.
  6. X3 led lights on signal gprs & power, with tesco £10 loaded credit - doesn't work
  7. The one i link too mentioned TLT2 in its description, maybe it was rebranded due to its success? From what I read £20 can last a year, depending on how many updates. Mine arrives today but the SIM most probably tomorrow, so ill hook it up & feedback.
  8. I'll sleep better knowing that cheers mate. Ref tracker, a chap on the triumph forum suggested this - https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B078KTKQ79/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_lG0yBbA688944 Bought one so I'll feedback once it's fitted
  9. There's about 200 of them
  10. As my bike is stored in a shipping container in a secure yard some 3 miles away, I'm still struggling with paranoia:) I found this on the web & I wondered if anyone has one, if so what's your thoughts? https://www.rewiresecurity.co.uk/db1-lite-compact-gps-tracker-tracking-device
  11. Bus pass???
  12. I've been looking at security options when out playing/commuting & lugging a 16mm 2m 3kg chain with a padlock on a naked is not my idea of fun; although having my bike nicked isn't of course. However, it got me thinking, my storage space under the seat is limited, but I can easily fit an Abloy 362 underneath, then when stationary just attach it to the rear sprocket, make sense? A lot stronger, safer than an oxford disc lock etc & simple to attach, remove. Any thoughts on why this is a bad idea?
  13. F**K IT x10000000000+1 Seen a really nice bike today just above budget, took the reg chckd insurance £400*!*!*!*!*!* fully comp with £600 excess!!! 41 with 5 years no claims history, OK I wrote my car off last October, totally my fault but still 5 years no claims!
  14. WD40 or rub some Vaseline in.
  15. If I may add, maybe put a sign on the main road just incase someone turns up late in the pi55ing down rain in the pitch dark Might save them having an off lol Have a great weekend guys n gals..
  16. Didn't read the first few posts then? WE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE VENUE not they had problems with us Well of course I did stu, so what was wrong this year?
  17. Soooo go on then, what did you all do to have to change venue???
  18. My fault, I misposted, should of been on the Keswick thread..
  19. If I was coming/going this year I'd take plenty of dry wood this year, at least it will be dry & burnable Lee
  20. Radio rental.
  21. Update on meeting places.. Tesco Rochdale 8am. Hartside cafe 8.30am Devils Bridge 10am All from there to the lakes
  22. Keep an eye out for the Aprilia's
  23. Tescos in Rochdale at 8 am. Then it's on to meet with lads in Preston at the Tickled trout (at 9-ish). Then it's on from there to Devils for 10. From there, it's a spin round near the lakes and possibly Penrith.
