    Got some biker jeans today. Went to longsight in smelly manchester. To the guys house so that I could try b4 I buy.. He was an Indian ,not one of those with feathers one of the other ones. Anyway he was a dead good man. He told me were the gear comes from and why its re-badged and all sorts They are really good quality and theirs More Kevlar in than a lot of others I looked at. He has a few different styles in stock but I went for the plain front type as I cant abide the stitched knee cap ones. Armour knee pads and hip protection is included . All for 37 pounds. He isn't a mate and im not getting any commission for advertising him. But if your looking for so…

I also have a MT50 (Honda) which needs to be fixed up...I got them both as part of my bike maintenance course. I'm in Aylesbury, single with 1 child....that's it.

    Hi Thought I had better say hello. New to the forum and returning to biking after a bit of a break. This year will be the 30th anniversary of the year that I was first legally able to ride a bike on the queens highway, so to celebrate I thought it would be appropriate to return to the road on the same make of bike, from the same era, that got me on the road in the first place (what would we have done without Fizzy's?) The bike I have chosen to do a restoration on is a '79 XS 650 SE (really wanted a '78 but couldn't find a good complete one without paying daft money and the '79 one came along for the right money) Hopefully I will be able pick peoples brains on …

    I just thought I'd introduce myself. Living in Bristol I passed my test in Feb this year (at the age of 41!) after the CBT two years ago. I don't actually have or ride a bike here but have a '99 FZS600 over on the Isle of Man where my g/f lives (right on the TT course). She got me into the biking and I'm loving every minute of it though currently I only get to ride four or five weeks of the year. Both my g/f and I sometimes marshall at the TT and Manx Grand Prix which is a great crack. I'd recommend a visit for the racing to anyone. Until you're that close, you really don't have a feel for the speed and everything else that goes with it. My plan is to relocate to…
