Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
... a worse mental state. So finally over COVID, I decided to crack on and find out what the issue was. Bit of research and a known issue with these bikes is the spark plug caps arching out onto the engine. There has been a superseded cap that sorts this issue. Sure enough, mine are the old type ...

Re: Will Automated vehicles mean the end of Motorbikes ?
Police bikes have a few advantages over patrol cars, in a few areas of police work...and that's it. Beyond those few specific uses they're just not a very practical option for most police forces. End of the day they're just too expensive, because it always comes down to money at some level or other.

Re: NEW Bike day-ish, GS Round 2
... an E60 5 series so it now has the low tone running on the standard wiring and the high running from a HEX EZ can, a magic box which talks to the bikes canbus system so it doesn't throw a fit when an extra horn is fitted or some extra lighting... Like a pare of Denali D4's which I scooped up cheap ...

Re: What are you doing today ??
Spent the day walking round the bike show, having a natter, sitting on bikes, and complaining at the lack of eye candy.
Knew Frankie would take his camera so didn't bother taking mine or any photos.

Re: MV Orioli LXP
I really can't see how they're justifying the price. It's the 800cc engine they've been using in several bikes so that should keep the costs down.

MV Orioli LXP
931cc all terrain bike. 122bhp. 75 ft/lb
Limited to 500 bikes and a mere €30,000
It comes with big panniers (39l and 32l), centre stand, skid plates, crash bars, race can, etc. Still seems a silly price though.

I also put the missus’s 400-4 back together, it’s been in bits for 10 years. I now need to find time to strip it completely / properly and get it running, needs a lot of work but a cool bike. 1976 vintage

Re: New Royal Enfield Himlayan 450
