  1. The bike nearly does a completed 180!! Like the way he looks a bit lost at the end...
  2. I've taken my private plate off my car and its currently on retention. Should I put it on my bike or not?? What's the general consensus on bikes with private plates?? Will it make me and my bike too memorable?
  3. Used mine under a wetsuit when Canyoning in Wales back in October. Even when soaked they kept me toasty warm for the day and when we stopped I unzipped the top of the wetsuit and they dried pretty quickly too. (Canyoning - throwing yourself down a cold river with no boat)
  4. At least something good came of his untimely death.. One less cyclist on the road!!
  5. 600 quid in the grand scheme of things is a drop in the oceans. Biking is a great way to blow cash!! Also once you pass you'll not want a 125bike.
  6. Whoops! Bet that stung a bit!!
  7. Does the jacket have a zip already? You can get zip adapters to convert one zip to another.
  8. Thought that was you cremating the BMW..
  9. Best read this: https://www.paypal.com/uk/webapps/mpp/p ... imitations
  10. Yeh i'll get the train. Last year i drove and got stuck in the queue for an hour. I'll aim for mid morning.
  11. Best deals on Sunday as they don't want to pack it all up and take it home..
  12. Well i was trying to work out my negotiation strategy to get me a pass for valentines weekend...then I get an email fwd from my partner.. flight booking confirmation.... I check the names on the tickets - and its not for me!! Looks like shes off to see her sister in Denmark for the week, leaving Friday 12th, so looks like I'm a free man for the weekend. Result!! Who's going Saturday or bargain hunting Sunday??
  13. I like them. They do a waterproof version and non waterproof so make sure you get the waterproof one! Three wires to connect to the bike so easy to install. You control it by text message. The format is a little cryptic but you soon get used to it. Google for the manual and you can get an idea of what it can do. For the price I think they are pretty good. You can put them into low power mode to save battery. It only wakes up when it senses movement. Also if your bike battery is dying it will message you, although that's too late for the bike to still start under its own power. If you ride regularly you won't have a problem. I bought a few budget trackers to try and of the ones I bought the TLT2 seems the best.
  14. Ebay TLT2. 30quid, and stick a GiffGaff sim in it.
  15. LOL, im going the other way, trading my 330cd M-sport for a new Aygo to keep the mrs happy! Swapping this: for this i feel like my manhood is being chopped off What's it like moving from a Bmw to a car fitted with indicators. I did hear indicators are an expensive option on bmw's. That's why they never seem to be fitted to any I encounter No idea!! I won't be driving this, its her car... I've still got my Audi A6
  16. But many years ago when the ace opened, wasnt it exactly what the bikers back then were doing?? Racing on public roads and fighting with rival bikers/scooter riders? "Ton up boys" racing through the streets etc etc... Is the problem new or have people just become less tolerant??
  17. Are you sure it doesn't have a throttle position senson?? Symptoms do sound consistent with a dodgy TPS.
  18. Jealous!! Mate of mine had one back in the day. Always liked them.
  19. Dont worry, hoggs is here now to keep you company.
  20. The drybags double up as good pillows when camping. Trap enough air inside and they are great!
  21. They should get together and make little Flynn/petrolheads babies...
  22. Yes they can be tuned to mental heights!! I've always fancied one as a toy. A mate of mine had one years ago when I was driving a (then Standard) 200sx turbo (s14) and it was stupidly quick and spat flames from the exhuats!! It was black and looked like the batmobile.. He left my 200sx standing...
  23. The RX7 is more sporty, if you want performance and don't mind living with the rotarry engine, get a jap import RX7.
  24. LOL, im going the other way, trading my 330cd M-sport for a new Aygo to keep the mrs happy! Swapping this: for this i feel like my manhood is being chopped off
  25. there is a very good reason why no other manufacturers produce Wankel engines... I drove one round Thruxton race circuit and wasn't that impressed. it didnt feel that quick.
