... sounds like a bit of quick thinking saved you from what could have been a nasty accident. I don't drive as much anymore and I'm glad as I'm sure standards have took a plumet and sooner they do so thing about phones in cars the better. Nearly got side swiped the other day some body texting ...

... all I saw was some car bits and a front bumper at the side of the road.. ALL I CAN SAY IS PHEW!!!!!!! Needless to say my GA was on my shoulder for sure (handshake) (sun)

Seriously though, I'm not sure I want to ride with you guys, it's going to look all, er, like a bit Gayer! Hold you think It makes any difference what bikes we turn up how gay we look. We chat on-line and meet up in random places in our ...

You thanked me to early.
I can't find the thread that I (was sure that) recalled reading.
So, I suspect that it may simply be down to me becoming old & confused, sorry..

... that won't damage the frame in a high impact accident....... Yep, I agree that is how they are marketed. However from my own experience I can assure you that (given a hard/fast enough impact) the support plates twist & bend, whilst their mounting points remain undamaged. I don't think I ...

... They don't use the no fairing panel cut type that has an extension plate moving the actual bung away from the frame securing point which im sure they would if there was an advantage to this design regards crash protection. The only benefit they offer as far as I'm aware is not having to ...

I have the fork slider bobbin thingies. But that's it. I've not found any nice looking crash bungs for speed triple. If I dropped it I am sure I can get some cheap replacements from somewhere.

As above glad mini Blade is ok. Scars are cool but I'm sure it will fade over time anyway. No experience but I believe bio-oil can help.

... haha. I need to rebuild the PC it's on so won't be able to show you for along time yet There's no denying how capable these bikes are that's for sure!

... man is on his way home with stitches and what will definitely be a little action man scar. Wakes up this morning with a black eye too so I'm sure he will be telling his class mates tall story's of his adventure this morning and getting lots of attention. He's ok and his brother did a really ...

It was a bit chilly but the heated waistcoat sure helps, the only bit of me that was cold yesterday was my feet. Time for a new pair of waterproof boots or at least something that will keep them a bit warmer. Nice dry roads yesterday it made a ...

... up getting a new one. Tell you what, for a ham-fisted armourer wielding a couple of cans of Halfords own-brand spray, it's not done too bad a job. Sure, it's on the inside of the bike where no-one can see it, but I'm considering doing the sidestand after seeing the results.

You really do have a lot to do my friend. I'm sure you wil get it done give yourself a little bit of time each day and the jobs will get smaller.
