I need to sort out a list but if you know of anyone after something give me a shout. In brief it's my old road plastics in black. No cracks but there are some small scuff marks from when I dropped it The front mudguard has a small crack where I managed to roll the bike backwards ...

But the different shape of the bikes means it doesn't carry so well on to the road bike IMO.

About to drive some canyon road to a harley speedway event. Its also a run what you brought (harley) and apparantly very funny.

... 125cc) in my youth so it grabs me in a weird sort of way. I guess I should really put the effort into getting the triumph painted and back on the road (facepalm)

... the A47 and BOOM, the heavens seemed to open and empty themselves into our leathers. Onto the B6047 which can be quite an enjoyable and technical road. However when you're riding through your second road-width puddle/food/ford/small ocean that had totally enveloped your boots(complete with hanging-off ...

... felt so instantly at home as i do on that. Its like a modern version of my 748 with a lovely balance of power and handling and so agile. Proper road going sportsbike and loads of fun as you can ride it hard on the road. Quickshifter is the best i have used to date. Duke can you please stop posting ...

And yes every insurance premium you pay out will rise but at least 3.5% from November.

I don't understand the car tax part? So if your paying 20 or 30quid road tax now in a couple of years the lowests emissioned cars will be forking out £140 quid per year in road tax!? And I also took a quick look and the insurance premium tax is going up too...so insurance prices will rise, great!

We'll be doing the speedway again, it was a top day.

I can't commit myself at present to an off road day, but I do want to do one.

... with separate tax and NIC rates and just have one rate of charge for both. Equally new cars registered next year will have to pay £140 per annum road tax and if the car costs more than £40k new then you will have to pay an extra £310 road tax per annum for 5 years. Think its all a sign of what ...

Rickster some of us have discussed doing the speedway day again. Its great fun and a good way of learning to feel the bike slide.
