That kind of fooks that one all right girl!!!! We are having a great debacle over here at the moment, where the speed trap guns that the rozzers use don't produce physical evidence (ie a printout) and therefore can't be brought to court to be challenged by the police. Any cases challenged are being ...

You could be lucky Poss, mine went at about 70mph and all I needed to do was slap in a new tensioner. Best have it checked though, I just flew by the seat of my pants to be honest!

It's a smashing machine all right Chris! The ammount of money they must have pumped into it! Think I'll stick with "Fairly Standard" to describe my one!

The price of the LED's are very good. They are the best 'tinterweb' shop I have ever used.

Pmcq, definately ring the local station about that one. He may not have reported that to the Gardai as he knew he was in the wrong and there were no injuries, but some poor fool is going to have to pay out for the wall he went through. Clearly of "dangerous driving" or "driving withou...

Glad you are enjoying it, and yes, our Third World road surfaces are improving! I'd forgotten how people react when you pull up behind them on a big bike! I've just started doing a twice weekly commute of about 60 miles each way, and 99.9% of cars pull over to let you past. It's great. Mind how you ...

Go to your local leather jacket / leather chairs supplier and ask them for something to clean your kit with.
I got a "soft leather" cleaner which comes as a liquid that you wipe over the leathers, and then beeswax stuff to put on afterwards to keep them all lovely and stuff!!!
