Tried it yesterday for the first time on the way back from Bristol. And I tell you what....I'm VERY impressed. Bike seemed quicker on pickup and even idled smoother. I'll use it at every opportunity from now on, but unfortunately there's no Shell stations in this area, so I can't use it on a regular basis. Have you tried it?

well just been and treated myself to a long over due new jacket, it's black and made by frank thomas(force 10 is the model i think) 8) seems a real good quality bit of kit too. it came in at £129 so should be well put together, i had seen flasher looking ones but tbh the ft suits my style better. any others use this brand? looks like my leather jacket will be getting a break now, good job really, the zips were starting to get rusty :shock: :roll:

Hi Guys, I've been trying to get some bike insurance quotes all day and was wondering how should be paying? I tried Norwich Union at for for a quote on a 2003 Yamaha R6 and it came out with £3000 TPF&T!!!! WTF!!!! :shock: I came across Insurance2000, which I found on the back of Ride Magazine and gave it a go with the following bikes (All are TPF&F quotes): 2003-2004 Yamaha R6 = £761.00 per annual 2004 Honda CBR600RR = £761.00 per annual 2004 Suzuki GSXR600 = £680.00 per annual 2004 Honda CBR125R = £450.00 per annual What do you think? Are these good prices??

PINK OR BROWN??

What's Yours? Mine: 1974 Norwich to London. I had a Triumph Tiger 650 (Bonny with a single carb). I had been up to see a mate and hooked up with another rider on a Norton 750 Commando, who I got talking to - as you do. Two Brit twins thundering down the A11 on a beautiful summer day. I can remember it as if it was yesterday. I've done 10s of thousands of miles all over the UK mainly and some in Europe and enjoyed them all, but this ride was pure biking heaven.

hi all i have a fs1e(fizzy) it is a 1988 model can this be classic insurance??? plz help thx

i dont know if anyone else has heard but i've just received an email from the Auf Pet site...(big fan you see been a geordie and that) it appears Pat Roach has unfortunately passed away after 3 hard years of trying to fight the Big C. My respects go out to all concerned and out of respect i'm gonna do an Auf Pet watch-a-thon tonight..and watch all 4 series :cry: .

Hi, Kenny Roberts showed his class once again in final qualifying for the German GP. It is possible that he is the only rider out there who could actually go head to head with Rossi. I know the Americans like him, but I cannot see what all the fuss is about re: Nicky Hayden. Another interesting point, I think: These races are finally proving how much better Moto GP riders are compared to WSB. Only Xaus seems to have any real natural speed and he's a crasher. Bayliss is too ragged. Hodgson is just average. Edwards is being outclassed. All this begs the question: Just how good was Foggy really? In my opinion he just happened to be better than Corser and Chili, but any of…

£1500 sound for a F reg exup (one of the 1st one's) with 31k mls, in pretty good good nick, haven't seen it yet kind you, but the sellers willing to travel to meet up.

Hi Folks, I have just installed the Alpha Dot Vehicle Security System onto the XT660. This comes free with all new Suzukis. I think that it is a good sytem which is why I have put it on the Yamaha. The only problem is that the poor little thing now thinks that it is a Suzuki and will need therapy :?

This time not on the bike in the car!!!!.......... Right here goes......I'm allready on a main road sitting waiting to pull out with my right indictor on, a car from behind flashes me to come out out which I do. Then a woman decides to some out of a lane also at pulling from my left side (she didnt see the car flashing me, obviously!) but while I was looking to my right at ready to pull out (after the car flashing me) she pulling out too :evil:, and we hit!!. Now I just asked two cops who were walking on the beat they came over and saw what happened, and basically said. I was allready on the road waiting to pull out, she wasn't!, she was still waiting from a …

I saw the BBC thing. Yep! We are seen as BAD. Why? Simple. The Nob Heads who ride sports bikes at ridiculous speeds with loud cans down to "biker friendly" meeting places and back are using the same roads as the Boring Old Farts who clog up the roads with their caravans. The Nob Heads never actually go anywhere, their reasons for biking are down to their Mid Life Crisis. At home they have boring wives, lawns to cut, IKEA furniture to polish etc,. So when they get on their bikes, which have to be the latest, fastest and coolest, and put on their replica helmets, leathers and boots, they have a point to prove. "We aren't really boring middle aged men like these caravan dr…
