Ditto. And Tony, do what makes you happy - there's little point in doing anything else in life.

Hope they caught the klootzak

I must have severely missed a thread.

Wassup Maws? Did I miss something? Nope, karate accident yesterday - minor calf tear

Am also looking for a petrol gauge light as I don't have when on the bike either so it's tricky to know when to fill up without counting all the miles and working out what I've got in the tank You don't have a trip counter?

with an "é". Posh. It's a really excellent breakfast, like seriously good. But I'll not be going as I can't walk let along ride. But everyone should try the big breakfast there at least once. Super selection of reading matter too.

It's not difficult, eh [mention]Hoggs[/mention]?

Yawol, mein herr.

I think Sunday breakfast here is on the cards.

Ignore them all. If you're clever you can double up on gear and it'll cover all of your needs. This is what I wear to work. And home. And at the club:

Stu said he was going to slap you, not take out a hit contract.

Recruitment going well then?

You are the bloke from that show, the one they called Big Larry, and I claim my DM5.

Is it similar to Whorewich?

I've done Groningen in a day, and a run from Nottingham to Clermont Ferand stopping only for the chunnel and fuel. Never again, it wasn't nice.

Oh, and if it's the battery - never go near this bloke who says it's a top end seize ever again. Like ever.

You can charge it wherever you want, if it's f**k-ed then it's still going to be f**k-ed. It may even be reading 12.4V (ish). Still doesn't mean it's not f**k-ed. Put a multimeter set to 20V DC across the terminals. Fire it up. If the voltage drops noticeably then there's your answer - bin it at the local tip and buy a new one.

That will f**k your battery on fast charge, it's for cars. Large car cells accommodate higher charging current. Without telling me, a friend fast charged my new battery...resulting in me having to buy another battery. It killed it. Someone will no doubt write to say 'blahblahblah I use a car charger on my batteries and they go better and have lasted for a billion years and invented a new type of chemistry'. Heed them at your own risk. Motobatt lumps are good to go from the off, but will obviously take a day or so to arrive. I love my Motobatt. I popped a Yuasa into the lad's 125 the other weekend and the residual charge was enough to get it going - so we rode it for three hours to get it fully charged. If you want a charger then Halfords also do a couple of the Oxford bike intelligent chargers. I'd suggest buying one of them.
