No mate I've lived in Essex, the fake tan level is the same as here in Liverpool.

Am I the only one who's first thought was that the car park would been full of Transit vans.

What? Just like in Essex ............ ducks

Just got my test, new CBR6F. Low speed pulled on break too sharply at factory gates, loads of DERV and bits of loose gravel. Dropped brand new bike......idiot. Couple of days later park bike up at work, a set of stabilisers appeared next to the bike.

44 years old from Liverpool. Recently returned to Liverpool after living in various places including Glasgow, Tarragona, Cambridgeshire, Slough and Wrexham. Working (ahem) in pharmaceuticals and have worked in Pharmaceuticals for nearly 20 years (had a 3 year break working in Genomics). Not Married....

916 still very pretty and not looking that dated, apart from the tail unit, that has not aged well.

Very easy to live with, but mine splitting its crank, stops me from recommending one to anyone (or any Triumph). Still bloody ugly though...

Well I have a head full of snot and it is looking decidedly overcast here in Liverpool.

Talk about being hoisted with your own petard

I think the £700 was for all or at least most of a complete system, just me getting the wrong end of the stick.
About 4-500 seems the prices I'm getting now for the headers only. I would still like it to be less, but hey-ho.

Just a flick of the wrist really, I hope he didn't stump up to much to make that thing, wonder if his mate gave him a hand.

Welcome on site.

Lucky to walk away from it.

Not urgent (YET!) as MOT is in June but there is a crack in one of the down pipes on my exhaust system. 1. Is there a means of getting it fixed and if not 2. Anyway of getting a cheaper aftermarket system, as a Triumph one is looking like being about £700+ No problem finding end cans just difficulty...

Yeah, I didn't know the 15 inch guns had that much elivation, but even so the main flack batteries alone, at 10.5 cm, would easily rip a Lancaster in two.

Watched the Tirpitz thing on 4OD. I've always been impressed by their hitting a (relatively) small target from such a great height.

Shortly after I passed my test I dropped my CBR at low speed, about 300 squids damage and that was about 12 years ago, even more now. Don't do it.

Last time I watched the national side was 2002. Ever since I've gone out on the bike instead.
I likewise put club before country, but even then I am strictly an armchair Toffeeman.

Leather has great fire retardant properties, just ask Colin Edwards.....

Damn some of the games appear to be in the middle of the night. So the roads won't be empty
