See I'm completely the opposite. I prefer wearing leathers whenever I can, unless its wet. I never tried a one piece. I have a two piece as I figured it would be easier to live with day to day. I'd suggest a turtle suit if you are a weekend or track rider.

This is the most horrible accident I've seen in track racing. RIP Dan.

I thought I would share this. These kids were playing at a local gig and were amazing considering their age.

Aria Don't fit my head because it's an odd shape (my head not Aria helmets). I also had a S900 as my first helemt, I thought it was good, until I upgraded, now I don't know how I coped with it. The worst part for me is the fact that the visor window seems a lot smaller than my Shoei. I do miss that drop down sun visor though.

I guess that's what it's all about. Maybe someone needs to make an amble out rather than a ride out. sometimes I like riding at a slow pace, could be fun to do it in a group so there is absolutely no pressure to push yourself. Also, where do you guys find out about ride outs? I've looked at a few on here but they have generally been really far away and if I were to join in it would envolve a very long solo ride out before I even got there.

I thought the exhaust was always on the other side than the chain (If its not under the seat etc) The main can is on the other side, however the pipe runs underneith my bike on the left hand side. There is a corner just under where the chain meets the gearbox. It's a bitch to clean, and I've just got a new oil which comes out frothy and I'm finding hard to gudge how much I'm putting on. I'm sure I'll get used to it though.

Yeah, scared the shit out of me when my GPZ did that for the first time. It's all good though. My new bike smells horrible if I over oil the chain, because the oil drips on to the exhaust, but I can only smell it when I'm stopped. As long as it's not over heating and you can't see any evidence of any leakages anywhere I wouldn't worry about it!

This is horrible. I have never been on a ride out with anyone (other than meeting random riders while I'm out) never mind an organised ride out, but I have wanted to. This has put me off a little bit though. I have only been riding a year, and only ever on my own, so I have no idea where my abilities lay, and I don't think I would want to feel like I'm being judged while I'm riding along.

My OH had a really bad astigmatism. She had her eyes lazered a month ago, she says her vision was perfect from the moment she could keep her eyes open. She also has reference vouchers for optical express, Which would give the user £150 off, and she gets the same cash back. That's if anyone's interested.

I wear thermal inner gloves in mine. I initially started this because my winter gloves are so thick, I would be sweaty by the end of most of my trips, and taking my gloves of would cause the liners that were now stuck to my stick fingers to turn inside out. Fun times. The inners are washable and so cheap that I can actually wear them all summer long as well without getting too hot. Failing that you could just wash your hands when you get off your bike, and try to refrain from sticking your nose in your gloves.

Ha! Norks, I haven't heard them called that since primary school. Seriously though, some people just need to chill a bit. Maybe the guy was just jealous.

Maybe there could be a tracking, modding and restoring section all in one?

I don't like cruelty to any animal, insect or living thing. Wasps are the exeption to this. In summer at a pub I used to frequent with some mates, there was always massive amounts of them in the garden. We used to have compatitions to see who could get as many wasps in an upsidedown pint glass at once! Hate the damn things.

Just like me, they long to be, close to you! Silly question. My question. Why is it whenever I have a few good days off, when I get back I have a really shit couple of days at work!
