Re: Waterproof gloves - recommendations

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 I've bought are their latest winter glove. The old version gets rave reviews ...

Some of them have had a tutor for the last couple of years, and are still struggling, which as you say ...

Re: Waterproof gloves - recommendations
... no gloves at all when out of their bike. It just beggars belief that anyone thinks that's a good idea. To my mind with gloves more than any other, buy the very best you can afford. Having to have someone to wipe your arse for your for 6 months is not more idea of fun.

Re: 2017 Honda Fireblade ?
It will be a good bike and sell well I'm sure.
Maybe not class leader but still a good bike.
Not sure how many on here have owned Blades but the two I have owned have genuinely been the best 2 bikes I ve owned and I would imagine other owners would say the same. I d have another in a heart beat.

... It rained all Friday night so that's a likely explanation. However, the brake light works fine using the rear brake so I'm going to start at the other end. I did have a look for some contact spray this morning before I left for work but couldn't find any.

Re: 2014 Kawasaki Z1000SX ongoing review
The brake light was occasionally working this morning, so either a connection is loose or the switch is playing up.
I've ordered a switch. I'll change it anyway and have a look when I swap it over to make sure there are no other issues.
