    Blowing exhaust

    Don't Delkevic do just headers for your bike?.......then you can stick whichever end can you like on it......
  2. Hmmmmm........looking interesting.......weather dependant. .......
  3. I think that any NIP that is not issued by the police at the time should be accompanied with the photo evidence and a copy of the camera calibration certificate as a matter of course.

    That's just knitting with a manly name! Exactly......and I've got my special leather chaps that I wear when I'm doing it too......

    I also dabble a bit with the guitar......do a bit of paracording. .....and drink beer......
  6. I've had a fairly solid bit of road debris ping off my knuckle protector once.....Took a lump out of the leather covering.....
  7. Sounds like a good plan, mate......I hope it works out for you......
  8. Welcome back, Sam........I think your profile location needs changing......
  9. Nice one, Beefy. .......tidy looking bike.......
  10. Personally I prefer the hard knuckle protection. .......but that's just me......
  11. Bar End mirrors are the way to go........ These are good (out of stock at the moment, but should be getting more in soon).......https://3pistons.co.uk/collections/bar-end-mirrors. (Ps. I'm not affiliated with the seller.....just know that they're quality mirrors for the price......and the guy that runs the site is a Speed Triple owner..... )
  12. Damn......If only I had £2.5k kicking around...... Always wanted a 900 Thunderbird or Legend TT........or better still, a Thunderbird Sport......
  13. RIP....... He was in our local town a few years back when Lola cars were celebrating an anniversary......and they were running some of their old cars around the ring road, with John driving one of them. He then made a speech from the balcony of the old town hall......
  14. Dunno if you can follow this link......but it's very interesting.......http://www.triumphrat.net/#/topics/599170?page=1
  15. The charging circuit on the Daytona is notorious for giving trouble..... Get on the Triumph Rat site and have a look.....there's mods and alternative Reg/Recs around that can help sort it out......
  16. Unfortunately I'm off out for lunch with my eldest lad today. Hope you have a good blast anyway.....
  17. Battery OK? Misfires at low revs is often due to plugs or coils......Maybe just some damp in there.....A couple of good long runs may clear it....
  18. Biometric driving licenses......like passports.......
  19. Sad for those close to the victims...... There really should be an upper age limit for drivers......which would be easier to implement if we had a better and more affordable public transport system......
  20. Congrats Arwen.......any plans for a bigger bike?.......
  21. I'd suggest popping the caliper piston out completely (put something underneath to catch the fluid) and give it a real good clean.......replace the seals......and then put some Red Rubber grease onto the seal before you put the piston back in. Also check that the caliper moves ok on the mounting plate......The pins and boots that it moves on should be in good condition and lubed up with more Red Rubber grease...... Obviously you need to get the screws out of the reservoir cap first.......you may need to drill them out if the heads are really chewed up......
  22. I'd go with the ACF50 personally.......
  23. Tango

    Lowering kits?

    That......or a slightly shorter rear shock......
  24. Yep......leave it a little slack, so that the adjustment is ok when you tighten the wheel spindle.....

    CCR gig

    I see a bad moon arising......
