  4. mitch bigger tyres doesn't mean better handling (if that's what you are after) it has to work with the correct frame/steering geometry.

  6. LOCKS only stop honest people,I live in the sticks so if someone wants to come and steal my crap out of my house they can have it and the insurance will pay for new,so the way I look at is,, take it ,,,your doing me a fave.I will claime it and buy new stuff. When it comes to my cars /bikes I only lock them so I can hopefully come back to it and drive back home,and as I said I only have to do that when I vist the city otherwise the keys are in the truck. Never know when one of my friends might need a car or a beer. Bike keys are hung in a secret spot at home and the ignition is disabled by my own hand wherever I go traveling and cant see it,, Or I go on a vacation and it get's left home alone. Them anit thef systems don't stop thives they can find the information so easy and know how to bypass them ,make your own and they wont know how you did it. I can't keep track of how many aftermarket remote starter/theft systems ,I have had to remove when the owner was locked out or couldn't start thier own vehicle. With the proper stuff in hand for thier own vehicle. DONT buy one they are all crap,unless it has gps tracking.But then it might leave you stranded when it ducks up and trust me they all do sooner or later. But at least the gps will find it. LOL might be good if you went out drinking and forgot where you parked too,the next morning. Just a tip if you want to theft prof your bike from starting , take a filter from your smokes/fag and stuff it under the plug cap,not many thives will work that hard to diagnose a faulty spark problem. Or if your running a muliy cylinder bike switch the wires on 2 plugs it will back fire and wake everyone. Want to dick with someone who pissed you off wet it first,will run til it dryes out from the heat of the motor.The motor will stop running when it does leaving them stranded. As long as there are thieves then locks will only stop honest people and stupid people,unfortunatly even thieves can be smart.

  7. Kind off related, but a few years ago, away on a rugby trip I lost my car keys and didnt have a spare set. I couldn't order a new key as the code card was inside the car (organised, me I am) and no-one would try to open the car ( You cant get into cars nowadays mate, the security is massive, was the common reply). Anyway, after trying all the 'legit' garages, I gave my mate a call and when I met him at the rugby club, he opened the door in about 3 seconds flat. I retrieved the card and asked him if he could lock the door................"I don't do locking" was his reply. We all need mates like that eh

  8. it's funny this thread should crop up . as I have just got back from my sons new house, he rang up and asked me to get down their with my picks as he had just snapped the key off in the lock and was stood out side with his bird. first he rang a lock smith who quoted him £80 call out fee plus £40 for any work carried out. then he told his new girlfriend "i'l give my dad a ring instead he picks locks, she asked " why would your dad pick locks" any how it took me three seconds to rake the lock and It only cost them a brew.. happy days all round as I hadn't been round to their new pad before..

  9. http://www.theguardian.com/books/booksblog/2014/nov/12/stephen-fry-narrates-foul-mouthed-paean-to-childrens-dinnertime-video Perhaps a little over the top with the language, but I defy any parent to deny feeling like this at least once in the first 6 years!

  10. (true story) I was driving back home one weekend last month, just pulled off the motorway and came to a stop at a red light/roundabout at the end of the slip road. im sat there in my own little world and suddenly a rather elderly lady on a shoprider-type mobility scooter comes around the roundabout infront of me, followed by a police car with lights on, by the time my light had turned green she had got half way round the roundabout before the police car pulled in front of her to stop her... i couldnt help but laugh. its probably worth mentioning that it was a 3-lane roundabout connecting the M3 to some A-roads.
