Re: What do you want to vent about today?
... was the first that sprang to mind, apparently VW don't give flying f*ck if Mercedes Vitos are better than VW Transporters. I don't normally like getting shouty with the front line staff as they can't help the policy their managers make up, but they all had some today.

Re: What are you doing today ??

Re: Waterproof gloves - recommendations
Five aren't cheap but like Duke says, you shouldn't mess around when it comes to getting kit. They only make gloves, that's all they do. To me that means they have to get it right, unlike other companies who can get by with some products better than others The ones ...

Just done a quote on Ducati insurance and getting £998 so actually worse than my owner broker as that's without the sp2 and just the Ducati on its own. Old codger, bike garaged, alarmed, datatag, 18 years experience, 12 years NCB, clean lience ...

driving through Calais
I can't agree with the driver's comments. He's a bit further to the right of Trump and Farage, but you can see why the truckers are getting so pissed off.

Re: Opinions/experience on aged tyres
Unfortunately, I generally skip B getting to C, or have its duration that short I don't acknowledge it. Experiencing B usually gets me back to A. The exception is in the wet. I'm like Ant West, I have no problem with sliding it about in the ...

Re: Bemoto Insurance
I had a quote on the street twin and they just beat Bikesure by a few quid but smashed it with the excess more than halved, full RAC cover and helmet and leather cover. They'll be getting my business at the weekend.

The suspension is soft and the brakes showed their limitations when you're getting a move on, but the handling isn't that bad and the engine did a great job when asked. Then when you're on the motorway home it's a proper mile ...
