    Mega clearout

    I know this technically should be in the "for sale" section but I'm not selling but giving it away. Hi everybody, I'm having a mega clearout and have came across some bike clothing I'm going to get rid of to a charity shop but I'd rather they go to a current biker first. What I have is a full set of leathers and a textile jacket with padded leggings which are not waterproof but are very warm. I am 5' 8" - 42" chest and 36" waist. Hopefully photos to follow. The only stipulation is that you must collect from Chippenham, Wiltshire.
  3. I can assure you Nige they are not part of the MOT, only indicators are but not hazards.

    first snow

    They forecast snow on Come Dancing last night. They said.............. Snow, snow, sleet sleet snow.
  5. Strange how whatever combination you do they all add up to 9 Twats
  6. Hi Mark and welcome to the forum. I live just down the road from you in Chippenham. You stated you live near Swindon, where abouts? Mike

    Winter wear

    Believe it or not I've just bought some from M&S. Going to try them out Tuesday night when travelling down the M5 to Bridgwater.
  8. In random section I can't "reply to this topic"
  9. All I can say Drewp is that I've been there. And believe me they do get over their first "rejection" but she will bounce back. When she meets her next one her previous one will be forgotten.
  10. I've been trying to say this since 23rd of August.

    Think yourself lucky Katie although many might not agree including my daughter. But when my lovely wife gets up in the morning half asleep it's like watching two ferrets having a fight in a sack.

    Happy Galoshans

    I hate Halloween.
  13. Whatever you decide Grouchie. Good luck. I'm sure you'll pass it ok, but anyway best of luck.
  14. Hi Lha and welcome to the forum. I'm going to ask the question everybody else is thinking. WTF does Lha stand for?
  15. Hello Trev, welcome to the forum. I'm only just slightly older than you as you can see by my name. Welcome to the forum.
  16. Shed? That looks more like a spare room in the house. Anyway Puffnut, Puffnut? welcome to the forum.
  17. Allo Vern, welcome to the forum. As said , never too old to start. I started when I was about 40 am now 66 and am totally enjoying retirement going to away games on the bike not having to worry about getting back because I have to get to work the next day.
  18. If it's been stood that long could be pistons sticking.
  19. All good experience grouchy so keep at it.
  20. That finger gesture is worse than the "c" word.
  21. Sorry Blacky, I know 1&2 are faired and 3 is naked but I kept switching between them all but there is a lot of characteristics the same so I presumed 3 was the finished project. Also I always thought rightly or wrongly that there isn't a lot of difference between a fazer and a divvy.
  22. Hi Shaun and welcome to the forum. Afraid not in your area but tried to get hold of a decent xj900 when I retired last year but to no avail, found that any decent ones were like gold dust so in the end went for a bandit.
  23. Hi Stewart and a very big welcome to the forum due to being a fantastic intro. Forgive my ignorance but do I take it that picture 3 is the end result of pics 1&2.
  24. Hi James, welcome to the forum. Ideally you should have introduced yourself in the newbie section first. First of all, don't blame the missus. If you can see the two wires and the connections where they should be try soldering them back. Hope this helps and good luck. Mike.
