... were all given usage of an F type for a week so they could tell anyone who asked how good they were. He was saying how the engine blocks are the same whether its a V6 or a V8. The V6 just has the last two cylinders blanked off. V6s. Middle one of the range. 380bhp. V8 is just too much IMO. Plus ...

... the weekend and get them over to be fitted early next week, hopefully the brake pads will turn up on Tuesday then I can get everything done at the same time. It's going to be a nervy ride down to the MOT station, new tyres and new pads (sweat) better not fecking rain...

I'm in the same boat as Rob. Last time I had to have a courtesy car the supplied me with "an equivalent" car.
They delivered a brand spanking new Subaru Impreza.

I did have fun "running it in" for the three weeks I had it.

Same here - not for the road, besides the speed required being fairly deep into license losing territory, I'd be worried about R/Handers and catching a cats eye or stone with my knee.

... they have and the guy there Will really knows his stuff. I'm well chuffed with the result only time will tell with the durability . If its the same place I went to Wrap Kings ,then my stuff has been on for nearly 2 years with no issues I was thinking of getting mine lacquered but havent as yet

... previous to this bike Ive not ridden anything since the D650 and that was about 5 yrs ago, the GPZ is a big old Skool bruiser without about the same power output as the D650 but heavier and with different handling characteristics, in fairness she's not too bad a ride for a 30 yrs old bike, thing ...

They have basically got carte blanche on the jobs they get sent by insurance companies. But to be honest, all industries are the same, as soon as they know an insurance company are picking up the bill, they inflate the job so much! When we had a burst pipe at home the builders/decorators ...

... said they could get a similar spec car to ours from a hire company and bill the other insurance. They turned up with an Audi A3 (not quite the same spec but adequate) so it wasnt all bad. However, when reading the paper work which came with the A3, I saw the daily hire rate of the car......£172+vat.......WHAT ...

... has an 04 R6. The difference in our bikes became more apparent the more we rode. Taking a long, sweeping left hander coming off the A47 at the same speed, Neil had possibly half an inch of chicken strips left(looking at a garage shortly afterwards). I had about a millimetre. (shocked) Neil ...

The other side of the same helmet and colour scheme..

I can't accept that a human body at 3 miles down would look the same.

The skull cannot withstand that sort of pressure. The rib cage is designed to protect two large air sacs.

Take a belt and wrap it around an arm or leg then pull. Doesn't the belt constrict or does the limb remain the same?

Mine doesn't have a Gold Sticker on. Blade has the same helmet and i think he said the same when he bought his. I seem to remember Shoei saying the Gt-Air is double skinned where the dark visor fold away too. I don't think the ACU Gold sticker means ...

Pirelli say the same thing about their SCs Deegee.

... that style) as its a very different ride to a sportsbike. It certainly took me a little while. It would be a very dull world if we all liked the same things. I love my V twins and the feel the engines give and doubt i could buy anything else now. I've owned 4 V-twins, 3 IL4's and one triple.

I know exactly what you're talking about Monty, I was told the same thing by my instructor at Ron Haslams, just the few sessions I did with him pushing me and my legs were quivering like jellies, my quads were shot for days after. However I retained some ...

Looks like you have the same problem a me Riccardo. Neil Hodgson told me if I didn't start hanging off more I'd end up in the kitty litter. Spent the last two track days trying to improve my body position but was that knackered after ...

... want to fall in love (or hate) before I had the money to spare to buy one. Gobsmacked by your report on the Beemer - however as BMW fall into the same area with Mrs Gee as HD's that isn't even a possibility. (n)
