Re: Security devices

has anyone used Alpha Dots or Datatag dots before? Was checking them out and not sure how they 'mark' engine casings and how they stand up to heat???? will get one of those chains, the sod is I can't fit a ground anchor due to restrictions on the flat, although the bike will be within 30m so will c...

Re: should i go chinese???

They are obviously not up to the standard of original parts and need a bit of teaking but for the cost they pretty good. :thumbup: (:-}) Tell me Carl this ''teaking'' you talk of is it anything to do with hitting them with bits of wood ? Or is it similar to water-boarding ? Confused of Grain :lol: ...

Re: 1965 Motorycle Road Safety PIF - Look, Signal, Manoeuvre

Very good find.. I personally think that Tom's friend is actually Kev, well the bit at the start anyway, that tricycle is definitely blue ! Strange how some of the advice is against what we consider good practice these days. They seemed very keen on riding along in the gutter ! His over take of the ...

Re: what have you done to your "bike" today

Waked past it in the MacCave several times whilst mending a crucial piece of work equipment. The Mk 6 'Long Range Bait Box Retrieval Tool' or stick with a hook on it for short. Then walked past it some more getting the lawn mower out & cut the grass, first of the year... Then I fitted an E-blag ...

Re: how to catch carl

Yeah Marty, get him to come round to yours & do all the work on your bikes, that should keep him away from the keyboard for some time... Oh hang on, you do that already & it would seem it's not working... Anyway what's it matter anyway ? Carl is probably the least waffle poster on the site. ...

Result Mac, how much do you reckon? I had £2500 out of them for a 1 yr over pay last year.
I wish Kev, it's less than a grand...enough for a couple of tank full's at today's prices. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Re: Rear Shock Spring

Am I right in thinking the original shock can be fitted with an aftermarket spring ?? I've seen them for sale but I always thought the original shock wasn't servicable. Has anyone here done it ?? Is it a home job ? What did they get, where from, and is it worth it ? Only interested in doing this if...

Re: BSB at Brands

As Wicky says take your own food & bottled water as prices are high then they add on a bit more as it's a BSB. Good call on the extra bag for your bike gear but take a pac-a-mac or something as this the UK summer we're talking about, so expect rain. Expect to que up a long time for the bogs &...
