Lane 1 is normally empty apart from HGVs. I've spent a couple of miles in that lane, passing vehicles in lanes 2 and 3. Very few move over to the left when you've passed them.

What a ball ache they went through, it only moved across the car park hahaFrankie wrote:With Gary I hope, his MOT station is now fully openRossgo wrote:Booked up MOT for Saturday

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
Filled it up with diesel by mistake, even worse I was on the way to silverstone for the Ducati day. What a complete KNOB
My only excuse was it was 5.30 am , eventually got back home by the AA, tank off drained the system filled it back up ( with unleaded ) after a couple of minutes she fired into life.
Too late for silverstone so have gone out on it to get rid of all the diesel residue, smoked for a bit but running spot on now.
Having lunch

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
I don't think half of these guys know what bikes run on mate, there's only a couple of stations I trust in the local area most of the staff in these places just push some buttons and tell you a price, I have been to a couple of places relatively local to me who ask me which pump when its dead (I look at all the pumps and no-one is around...I kinder assume the helmet and leathers would give it away with a bright coloured bike standing by the pump but no they still want a pump number hahahahaha)kingfixer wrote:You would think the cashier would have said " you have just put diesel in your bike "

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
I thought all tractors were diesel. Your not the only one the other week a mate had to cancel on me saying his wife's timing belt had snapped. I went down to his house to see if he needed a hand. She came through the door giving him some proper gip telling him how crap the truck was and why he had not sorted It . Anyway he went got his works tractor and the trailer used for moving earth movers and went off to get it. 1hr later he drives past tooting the horn on his truck. The reason the car had broken down was due to the £30 of petrol his Mrs had put in the diesel truck.
"80mph" sorry officer I possibly could not have done that I'm no Valentino Rossi.

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
Gave it a quick polish.
Then the kids came out and asked if they could sit on it. Not wanting to dissuade them from biking in any way, I let them.
Then had to wipe all the greasy hand prints off!
Stupid kids!!!
