I was a Depot Manager at most of the Brewery Depots I've worked at in the last 10 years. I downshifted to Transport Manager in the last 12 months. I worked for Bass (now Coors), Tradeteam (they deliver all Coors' products), Matthew Clark Wholesale (biggest wine wholesaler in the Country), Matthew Cl...

Nice one Ben. That makes sense. I was looking at your posts regarding brake pads. I've managed to find Carbone Lorriane A3+'s at Busters (interestingly they allude to the fact that the A3's are the normal road/touring and the SBK-3/-5's are the supersport?) but can't find the Bendix anywhere. Any id...

Thanks for the info chaps. I did email 'WezMoto' and said I'd got handlebar risers. He said order 'em up, let him know in the comments box of paypal what I wanted and they'd make them an extra 25mm longer. Bargain!!

I use a Snooper S5-R and a TomTom with the speed camera software. Using the Snooper does give you an idea how many of the speed cameras aren't actually loaded (around 80% in the W.Mids). With the Snooper came a 'Blinder' laser jammer that I've never got out of the box. 20 quid if anyone's interested...

Nope. But that doesn't stop every pub in the black country from displaying one of Banks's boards.

Good for cleaning the drains I'm told...

My two penneth worth. Had goes on a Triumph Tiger 900, VFR750 and a Fazer 1000 recently. I've got to say that although all of them would out-handle and most would out-gun the Storm, none of them had the mid-range stomp that the Storm has and the feeling that you're going faster than you actually are...

Transport Manager for a big brewery depot. You might guess which one...Probably.

Yep, I do have the stock lines on already. These are best described as 'taut'.

Thanks for the vote of confidence guys. Didn't want to buy something, get it all out and find it doesn't fit (again).

MarkG: Besides the routing (I saw Ben's answer to your post), any tips in fitting them?

Saw these on ebay--->http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... Track=true

Anyone know whether they'll fit a bike with handlebar risers? (mine are GB Moto - approx 19mm higher)

I had trouble getting my Acumen gear indicator to indicate the right gear when setting it up on the paddock stand. The trick is to hold the bike at 2,500 rpm in each gear. The instructions don't tell you this.

I only found out by phoning the factory and speaking to the technical department...

A sorry tale. I bought a set of front and rear (second hand) Goodridge hoses off ebay some time ago, intending to fit them this year. Found out that instead of stainless fittings, they had anodised fittings which had come into contact with brake fluid. This had eaten away (etched?) the fittings, so ...

Yellow P reg posing through the middle of Stratford on Avon on Sunday 27/01. I was on the teal one with a couple of Beemers in persuit. Even though I'm a blue-through-and-through man, the flying banana did look kinda nice...(the bike not the bloke)

Ahaa! Thanks for that chaps, I was already tracking starter solenoids on ebay...

Hi all, just stuck in new Denso Iridiums (0.4mm's), K&N filter and an R1 regulator, and having had a bitch of a job getting the tank off and on again (pipework bloody everwhere), we gave it a chance to fire up. As the bike had been stuck in the garage for a couple of weeks with the alarm on and ...

Was it easy to fit?
