Re: SORN

Yes, but what's it not going to hurt? I know Hondas have better build quality than most, but road salt will eat away at any metal surfaces unless it's washed off pronto. The only stuff I'm aware of that will actually stop road salt in its tracks is ACF-50, and it's a real faff applying the stuff top...

Re: ear plugs again - anyone used these?

A year or so back I bought a 200 set box of these from Lawson HIS: http://www.lawson-his.co.uk/aearo-earsoft-fx-ear-plugs-box-of-200-pai-p31163 They're just about the best 'standard' ear plug I've come across, and at that price it would be worth 2 or 3 (or 4 or 5) mates clubbing together and buying ...

Re: SORN

Tell me how much enjoyment you can have when you can't tell whether that white stuff on the road is snow or salt and you need either heated grips or handlebar muffs (or both) to make a winter journey ...

Re: Correct Tyre PSI?

It seems to me that 36psi Front and 42psi Rear is a pretty universal recommendation. Certainly it's what's recommended on my VFR and my Falco. I'm guessing the tyre and bike manufacturers have settled on a standard value to avoid confusion. This is for road use, of course. Track use is another thing...

Re: Casey Stoner

Dead impressed with Dani in today's race. Time was, he'd have folded after Lorenzo's pass on the last lap (which was superb - something out of nothing), but instead he hung in thare and nailed it on the last corner. And with Cal getting on the podium, that's my MotoGP race of the year so far... It a...

Re: Spraying fork lowers

I've been looking for something to spray the belly pan on my VFR (sorry), that will resist stone chips well. Has anyone used Simoniz tough black over a period of time, and if so, how much tougher is it than ordinary paint? I've also used helicopter tape on my fork lowers, and that does an excellent ...

Re: Casey Stoner

+1 for hoping Dani wins his first championship. I've really warmed to the guy over the last year or so. But he does have crap luck with crashes and injuries. Stuff other riders walk away from cause him to miss 2 or 3 races.
