  1. Thank you, was going to ask who did yours, absolutely outstanding and could be getting many of my moneys in the near future I wouldn't go for more of the same personally, I'd pick something different but try and keep similar colouring and delicacy
  2. Happy birthday dude, have a good day
  3. Been there, done that. If it came out on the first squeeze then yes, the pistons were so far out and the pads must have been so far down they needed doing. Now you get to learn how to service calipers It's not difficult. Take all the pistons out, clean them up. Take the knackered seals out (should be 2 in each hole) and clean the calipers up. Give the new seals a soak in new brake fluid for a couple of minutes and slip them back in. Pistons back in. New fluid in the system, bleed, Robert's your mother's brother.
  4. +1 You've got more time than you realise to do your mod1. Don't let the examiner rush you 'coz he wants to get off for another fag and a cuppa Take your time. Sit and visualise every manoeuvre before you start it. Look at your route, see yourself doing it. Breathe. Shoulder check, in gear, shoulder check, shoulder check (just in case ), go
  5. Check the pads. In an ideal world the brake fluid level in the reservoir only goes down as the pads do, when you change the pads and push the pistons back all the fluid comes back up the system into the reservoir. This isn't an ideal world but check that before just throwing more in or you're in for a nasty shock when you do
  6. Yaaay, conga rats What bike you getting then? *nudgenudgewinkwink*

  17. Hi and welcome to TMBF. Pop over to Newbies and say hi to everyone as well Yes you can sit your unrestricted test 2 years after passing your A2, there's no requirement to show you've been riding for those 2 years at all. But will you be able to have a licence for 2 years and not use it at all? On A2 you wouldn't be able to get a 600RR and restrict it, it's 47bhp but the bike can't have started with more than twice that which means nothing more than 95 which I reckon was quite deliberate since all the 600 sports put out just over 100. You've got those 2 years there though so ride for those 2 years anyway just to get some experience and miles under your belt so you're not jumping straight onto a supersports for your first bike, they're that bit trickier to ride. You'll have 2 years no claims saved up as well which will help with the insurance on an RR at 22
  18. Assuming your CBT is still in date? You need theory and then do your test. For DAS the test is taken on a 600cc bike and there are 2 parts: Part one is the slow speed control round the cones in the car park bit, costs £15.50 (plus if you've gone through a school their bike and instructor hire) Part 2 is the ride round the roads with an examiner behind. £75 during the week, £88.50 (plus bike blah blah) Don't have to take both on the same day (I had 2 weeks between mine) With DAS you can then ride anything you like. Not at all, I did an hour a week on Saturday afternoons for a few months and far preferred doing it that way, meant I had a week to practice what I'd been taught on the Saturday and didn't end up paying the instructor full time when half the time he's stood having a fag watching me wobble round the car park Whereabouts are you? Might be someone near you can give you school recommendations if you haven't got one in mind already?
  19. No, Apple and Google fell out quite spectacularly which is why we now have the running joke that is Apple maps. Accessing the google maps web page is better than the google maps app but I don't think it'll let you have turn by turn instructions that way. I've got Navigon app on mine. TYRE can speak to it but you need the pro subscription which I haven't got but it's on the list when the sun comes out to see how well it works out
  20. The visor itself could be a slightly different shape, doesn't take much You should have a couple of screws on the mounting plate where the visor attaches that you can loosen off and move so the visor makes a proper seal again
  21. Happy Birthday Neil Have a good day mate
