  1. ... Aaand now the fire alarm has gone off
  2. Nominating myself again. Decided as it will probably rain later to wear my big adv boots and full gear on the ride in. Forgot to stick my indoor shoes in the bag. Currently sat at my desk in socks. Edit: Obviously, not just socks. But without shoes
  3. Run around N. Wales this morning. Home via the Chain & Sprocket. Now changing the oil n' filter.
  4. When she went to the West Indies, that was certainly true...
  5. Hi My first bike was a Thundercat. Bought it before I passed my test. Failed the test, dropped the bike on my leg and had a bruise from ankle to hip that lasted from May to October. Good times!! Sold the bike, gave up on the idea. Came back to it all in later life and loved every minute of it. Hope you enjoy the CBR and post some ride reports and pics. They're a good bunch on here.
  6. As in, "my wife went off to Indonesia". "Oh, Jakarta?" "No, she was perfectly capable of getting herself there."
  7. Hi, welcome along. Hope you stick around and post some pictures and ride reviews, it sounds awesome.
  8. Well, I cut out bread, but I don't think that's what you're getting at You can get inflatable or gel seat pads which might be worth a look. The cool covers we have on the Explorer don't give much extra softness, but seem to help by allowing airflow between seat and rider.
  9. Happy birthday
  10. Ignore anything the AI summary says. It once told me the inner dimension of an oil seal was larger than the outer dimension. Then it told me a 7-digit part number which it later admitted to guessing. I mean, it had a one in ten million chance of getting it right, why not?
  11. We've had three counting the current v60 estate. Lovely comfy things.

    Newbie!

    Hi, welcome
  15. A cheap motion alarm under the seat isn't a bad idea. Amazon do them fir £12.99
  16. I've got the Oxford alarmed disk locks and a chain similar to the Oxford one in the picture (from Screwfix). The bike survived a night out in Blackpool wearing one of each, if that's any recommendation.

    Hiya
  18. A quick dab of hammerite on the centre stand and engine bars...
  19. Hi there
  20. So Mrs. Fiddlesticks decides to put a few homely niknaks on display for the benefit of potential buyers. Daughter comes down for a few days, after which we start showing the house. Little did we know the little wotsit had been "correcting" her mum's spelling... Cheers kiddo. Now we look like a pair of illiterates.
  21. Great write up.
  22. Another option: https://amzn.eu/d/iSxZi4p Has been working for me for the last 2 years.
