    Bike Crash

    Welcome to TMBF mate. .......pop over to the Newbies section and introduce yourself to the guys when you can. ....... If you're concerned about the pain, then go see your GP.......I suspect that it's bruising or muscle damage, so there's probably not much they can do for you. As for the crash, you'd probably be best off speaking with one of our forum members who deals with this kind of stuff on a daily basis......no point In us speculating on blame without the full facts.......
  3. Insurers don't like modified bikes......especially if they're on L-plates......
  4. Welcome to TMBF mate. .......pop over to the Newbies section and introduce yourself to the guys when you can. ...... If you're 17, then there shouldn't be a problem upping the capacity of the ped. .....as long as it's no more than 125cc.......getting it insured may be a different problem though.....
  5. The Met do Bikesafe for learners......but not many (any) other forces do this......
  6. There's a formula for working out the maximum number of bikes you should own: Max number of bikes = number of bikes you currently own + 1.............
  7. Nice one, mate......glad you enjoyed it...... Yep, the rear brake is a bit like the handbrake in the car......The use of it will be covered in your DAS training, as it's invaluable for low speed control too...... You'll probably find the 600 easier to ride than the 125......Most people do......
  8. Nice one, mate.......spectacular weather for mid October. ......shame that we were away for a walking weekend in the cotswolds........
  9. Schuberth are meant to be really quiet......not tried one, but that's what I've heard (pun not intended)......
  10. Congrats on the pass, mate.......don't worry about the weight, but be respectful of it.......
  11. Nice one, mate......sounds like a good day.......
  12. You're not the first to do this.....and you won't be the last.... Glad you sussed it out in the end.....
  13. Depends on which jacket and which gloves.....so many combinations. ......
  14. Congrats mate......enjoy the Get On session.......and report back on how you get on......
  15. A lot of bikes need a 12mm plug spanner/socket......but some need a 16mm one......best to check before buying one....... Yeah, I've got one in my underseat toolkit too.......
  16. Another one for Bikesafe.......it's a good introduction into further rider training.......
  17. Yep.....it's one or the other.....and the full A license trumps them all.....
  18. Welcome to TMBF mate. ......pop over to the Newbies section and introduce yourself to the guys when you can. ...... Do the CBT and see how you get on with the bike.....then take it from there if it works out for you......
  19. Good result, Mr B........

    Bandit died

    The only thing near the front brake that could affect it is the kill switch......check that and the wiring around there.....
  21. Hey....don't drag me into this!..... I guess there could be a ride for those that wish to go on one........but, because of the distances some will have already ridden to get there, it'll be optional..... Are you going to plan one, [mention]Hoggs[/mention] ?
  22. Unfortunately, or possibly fortunately , I didn't see my eldest lad today, so I'm seeing him tomorrow. ......otherwise I'd have headed over there.....
  23. Unfortunately this is a common theme with Triumphs......which is why folks have started to modify the charging circuit. .....

    Bandit died

    Yeah, like Tankbag suggested, check your battery terminals.....
  25. Consider doing the Series regulator mod, if you intend keeping the bike.....
