    New Top Gear

    trying to watch episode two... Evan's voice is really grating - it's far too high pitched and squeaky for a "manly" car show. And whats with those stupid thick rimmed specs he wears?? and Button looks like he needs a bloody good wash to get rid of the dirt/fake tan.
  2. Went for a spin after work last night.. first time I've done that for ages!
  3. First bikes are often dropped, smashed and scratched up. Don't put too much work into it until you've learnt to ride it!!

    I hope it doesn't continue to do UK versus USA. So what if one presenter is from America? Don't base the entire show on that one simple fact.
  5. I looked pretty daft a few weeks ago when the battery died in my clippers half way through a head shaving session!!
  6. Its never gonna be a cheap hobby. Does he have sponsors? I'd love to race but have zero time spare.
  7. Get something with better spares availability. CBR600/GSXR600 etc.
  8. Great bikes, but yeah, they seat is a bit dodgy!
  9. Hold the hot end of the soldering iron under the heatshrink and it will shrink.
  10. hahahahaha.... there is right and then there is what is safest for me. So you reckon solder and then tape? or solder then hot glue gun to provide insulation? Solder and heatshrink. Remeber to slip the heatshrink on before joining the wires. You don't use a hot glue gun to insulate wires !! Haha
  11. 999: what service do you require? You: fire brigade please 999: what's the emergency? You: I've got a crusty old helmet I want to give to the nice firemen... 999: pervert.... (hangs up)

    It wasn't advertised very well, it's almost like they just wanted to sneak it out without any fanfare or fuss. Maybe they secretly know it's not great.
  13. Think you can donate then to the fire brigade for their training. Or turn them over and use them as plant pots

  15. very nice!! you have to come as Terminator to the rally.... http://i594.photobucket.com/albums/tt28/a-dev/T2%20Harley/HarleyT25.jpg
  16. My partner is from Luxembourg. Been there a few times and compared to the UK is like a different planet. Everything is clean tidy and well maintained and the fire department drive big yellow hummers!! When the UK becomes unbearable, Luxembourg is a very possible escape plan.
  17. It depends on what effect it will have on the influx of Latvian hotties. When the UK is broken completely, let's just move to Latvia!
  18. Knife laws... buy whatevery knife you like in France, UK - get arrested for anything more sinister than a sharp spoon!! Example of UK specific laws that have no relation to Europe that have come into force during the time UK have been EU members. If we leave Europe, expect more laws that prevent good people carrying useful tools.
  19. Sad to hear yet another bike school being slated for poor training techniques. Makes me wonder why these people bother to be instructors if they don't want to encourage people to ride. But keep persevering. One day it will all click into place. Get on a bigger big as soon as you can, they are easier to ride.
  20. Good argument for staying in. Left to their own devices, our governments would resort to being feral children making up all sorts of nonsense. We've been in the EU for a long time. Many of the things listed would have come about regardless of the EU. So you can't say we should stay in the EU just because a bunch of progress happened whilst we've been members.
  21. Things I don't want to happen if we leave: Have to get a new driving licence (non-eu) Have to get new passport (non-eu) Have to get new numberplates (non-eu) Have to pay VAT and import duty on stuff I buy from Europe.
  22. Be like a scene from mad max over there soon!!
  23. Everyone will have whiskers.. no arguments.
  24. Agree he just needs to wear it and get it to fit to his head. But on your first point, does that mean every time we remove the machine washable inner lining we are breaking the law when we put it back together? HJC seem to generally offer two shell/eps sizes (small/large) with the intermediate sizes accommodated by three different thicknesses of cheek and comfort lining per shell size making a total of six sizes per model. If we can remove the lining to clean/replace it, then what's to prevent someone replacing with the lining from the next size up? (Assuming it's the same shell/EPS size)
