I've had my HJC for around 3 years and looks and feels good. It already has a drop down sun visor. The purpose of a tinted one was purely for aesthetic but I wanted to make sure it was safe at night. I would love to get a new lid but I think I just need to replace the visor for now

It has got to the point now where I think I need to replace my visor and pinlock as the visibility doesn't look great, it steams up inside my helmet and my visor looks quite scratched up. The question is: do I get another clear visor or should I go for a light smoke (legal) one? I ride all year road, day and night but I am not sure what the visibility will be like at night with the light smoke one. What does everyone else do?

What are people classing as the average mileage for a bike of its age? I am constantly on the lookout for a different bike but I want to make sure the next bike I get, has decent miles for its age. For example, would a Honda CBR1000RR 2013 that has just over 20,000 miles be classed as having high miles? How do you determine what is high mileage for a bike?

Thanks for the advice all. Some cameras I've been looking at have been mentioned, so I just need to decide on one.

I've been thinking for a while now that I want to get an action camera for my bike. I'm not one for doing video posts or track days (yet) but just want one to record rides and have just incase something happens. I'm not after something flashy or expensive but something half decent at a reasonable price. Anyone have any suggestions or recommendations on ones I should look at?

Nice ride out to Bike Shed London. Always wanted to go since I moved to Kent but never really planned it until now. Was meant to go with a friend but they dropped out. Never mind, nice ride on my own for some lunch and see what the hype is all about

Anyone have any suggestions on good biker routes around Maidstone Kent area? My friend and I are thinking of going out tomorrow but are not sure where to go.

Well done him. I'm in Maidstone, Kent. Is that too far?

Can anyone tell me what you would class as average mileage? I'm still getting use to riding so wouldn't really know. I've got a rough idea for a car but I assume it's not as much as that. I'm asking because I'm looking into buying my next bike but want to make sure it has decent mileage. Thanksa

Hi onesea. Are you still looking for a 125? Im going to be selling my Honda cbr125 2007 soon, if you're interested? And where abouts south of England are you?

Thanks all for reply. Been really helpful. I'm currently looking into getting some summer gloves and as many of you have mentioned them, I might also look at some bull it jeans

This is the 1st summer since getting a motorbike and although I want to ensure I wear the proper protective gear that I have alreadybought, I don't want to be sweating out in it. Any suggestions on summer gear that is casual, protective and breathable. Thanks

Brilliant, thank you

So I've managed to book in my theory and hazard perception test for next month. I've done practice ones on apps but considering I've never rode a motorbike before, I want to ensure I do it right. Plenty of reading and testing myself. Anyone have some advice on the best apps or books to purchase in preparation? Cheers

You mentioned minor marks but is it worth considering a category N write off?
