Hi All, A question can you help out ? I have a job to do for work which includes on line access from the public, so after deliberation I felt that using pre written software may help me learn how the underlying tables are written Tech over I have added a forum site (within my interest Yamaha) to see how things are done so if you could head over there and just add something so I can see how things are added to the tables it would be a bonus so the url is The Link I must say that this site is just there for development of my work. Give it a go Regards Jim

What happened to speedo cables with an outer and an inner with two knurled knobs, one at each end? The SV speedo has decided to pack up. Common fault, normally the rotor or the sensor. so either £21 or £120 to fix. I guess both plus VAT I just hope something was not clicked in when I had the wheels off for the tyres a few weeks ago. So front wheel off today and a quick lube to get set for Lincoln tomorrow.

Hello All, I was looking to see if anyone else has been having massive problems with the RST line of clothes. Currently I owe: RST leather touring jacket (never had any problems with it apart from weighing a ton) RST Raptor textile Jacket - The seam has come away at the elbow after only 6 months of having it RST Enduro textile Jeans - The seam split at the ankle and the velcro on the pocket at the sides came away. Saying that I've managed to get both textiles replaced without much hassle from Sportsbikeshop who were pretty damn awesome with their Customer service. I got the feeling that RST doesn't really stand up to hard biking, for instance I ride all we…

With an interest in World War 2, I thought it would be poignant to remember that tomorrow marks the 67th anniversary of D Day. In 1944, allied troops landed on the Normandy beaches.
