A set of Nespresso Lungo glasses and a restock of all my favourite coffees.

As a bonus when in Italy recently I stocked up on Cantucci too (lol)

Woohoo !! The delivery has been signed for !!

Straight to the supermarket to buy some milk and I'm gonna mix up some porridge oats and toffee flavour to make a delicious cocktail of awesomeness to keep me filled for a short while.

Just got to decide what I'm doing with some chicken for dinner

Bits and pieces to make a new charging lead for the track bike Rev counter...

Something to do on a quiet evening over the winter.

No, it's got a full charging system.

The standard dash and and wiring has been removed, replaced with a stand alone rev counter that needs to be charged before use.

Would it not be possible to hard wire the Rev counter into the charging loom ? Just a suggestion that's hopefully helpful.

Unfortunately not. When it's plugged in it doesn't work, as I found out after a bit of swearing.

Obviously not. I realise their a new emerging brand with limited exposure to the premiun market sector but all reviews and tests specific to the RHPA 10 Plus helmet came back with great results.

What specific issues have you experienced with the actual helmet I have purchased ? Im aware they do some very cheap £100 mark helmets which I would go no where near but this is a premium product with a carbon composite shell made from carbon, aramid fibres and fibreglass which is identical to Arai and Shoei products.

Would be very interested in hearing any problem areas I should be aware off as always better for armed imo. Cheers for your help (lol)

I was more aiming that at the Lorenzo replica part ;)

But yes i have laughed this year as i assume the only reason he wears a slightly less premium brand is due to massive wedge of cash im sure they offer him.... but then goes and slags them off all year. Image

Didnt mean to offend. :)

No offence taken at all edd1e. If there were issues I would definitely rather know so no problem at buddy.

I get what you mean know and I realise Jorge isn't popular but I like him and I like his helmet design so no brainer for me.

Ive just opened it and have to say I'm impressed the quality is good, the paint work is lush and the fit is very very comfortable and by far the best I've tried on recently.
