Re: Cheap Custom Leathers

Yes that's not good. Poor bloke think the sizes are wrong!! I tried on a lot to get my size right. I know people are on a budget but it doesn't take a lot to go to a shop and try on the different makes.

Re: Weekend plans

Several glasses of wine tonight, and a lazy day with the kids tomorrow. Might take then to a park or soft play, weather depending. Sunday, 10 mile race in the morning. Looking to take it a bit easy and use it as a training run. Then in the evening my parents are ...

Re: Run Flat Tyres

... Bridgestone figure and seems the sensible decision however I have a question. Bridgestone recommend one figure and it's 42 psi. But this doesn't take into account the specific car it's used on. For example the pressure in our 318d recommends 36 psi in the rear for the same tyre our 330d recommends ...

... place, the gear linkage and one of the cable holders on the back brake are weathered. There are two large fairing bolts on the lower fairing which take the brunt of crap and they could do with being replaced. Otherwise the bike is doing good. The baffle box before the link pipe looks brand new ...

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??

... what I'm thinking the M5 was very good for slightly less. Can you remember what he charges for fitting tyres to loose wheels out of interest? May take a look into the sites and see if I can do it slightly cheaper. Sounds like I'm contradicting myself here but I'm if I can get a little knocked ...

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??

Same here. If you take a tyre you've bought yourself in and a loose wheel, there's essentially not much reason in it for them to swap it over for you. A few places might do it if you're a *really* good customer, but most will charge ...

... manager) just told me that a customer is expecting a project to be handed over today. Whoops. It's a shame that it's two weeks behind because you take two weeks to respond to every email, phone call, etc etc, then. Naturally, the CRM has got shirty with me about this. *stabby* :D

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??

... better. Did you get this quote from Gary ? If not I would ask him, he is normally very good on price. Saying that I normally just buy on line and take down loose wheels for fitting cost me very little then. On line prices direct seems to be the best deals around at the moment. For info I am now ...

Re: What do you want to vent about today?

It's a UK cultural thing, we take people who are really good at their job and make them managers. So now they're not doing the job they were good at and they're given little or no management training.

Most other countries train people to be managers
