Change of "handle"
I don't know if it is because of that but professional membership is only £10 for 3 years. I think that membership is £5. If you want to investigate just click the "subscriptions" tab at the top of the page.

I don't know why unless you need a different level of membership. I get this:

The ghost page
We are much more that biology when we are alive but, in my humble.... not when we are dead. I was not taking about religion, nor faith. I have neither but mainly respect those who do. This does not stretch to anyone who knocks on my door to sell it nor people who think that they have the right not to abide by laws of the country they live in or people who attempt to use it to justify harm to others. I personally belive in "doing the right thing" this includes helping others and being respectful (most of the time) not sure if this is just upbringing? I am very interested in the history of religion and it's architecture. It has had a major influence in the world we live in now. I just think that the thought of a higher being watching everything we do when there is so much bad in the world - including people who want to claim to be religious or are doing it for the sake of religion - is a bit strange. Was religion, and it's wrath, just a way of controlling the masses prior to "proper" laws and police forces to administer the laws? Is the bible (or equivalent) just a book of fables about heroes and magic that has been misconstrued? I don't have any problems putting in to a collection plate by the way and I hold no grudges against the vicar who married me - I just wish he could have warned me first!

One fundamental flaw in that. Quantum means guess or hypothetical in scientific terms.

No. Nor God, nor heaven nor hell (except the one were in - UB40). I also do not subscribe to the fact that when bad things happen it is because it was on the site of a red Indian burial site. Doris Stokes - anyone remember her? - made load of money taking to the dead. Since she has died, she has been very quiet and has never bothered to get in touch from the other side. We are just chemicals, water and a little electricity. I work in a place where people die every day and I have never seen any of them wandering around. Now I have tempted fate, what's the chance of being grabbed by the goul'ies?

Staylybridge Motorcycle show 8th July
I can't make it. I have a few family bits to do tomorrow and bike less at the moment. Took the rear caliper off the SV to change the pads as I had to cut out the old pins so waiting on Wemoto to send me some stainless ones.

The damn rain
The bike gets cleaned while you ride. Can't see what the fuss is all about. Much worse after a few dry days and then a light shower. It lifts all the oil of the road surface and gets very slippy. At least it isn't cold. In a few months I will be moaning about how cold my fingers are getting riding in January.

Good CMM this month (July)
It does look nice Sacha. I had a subscription as a Xmas pressie a few years back but it was very repetative and I do agree about the bikes changing too much. My better half just brought it back from a trip to tescos because it had a DT on the front cover. That works for me!

Yamaha virago 125cc 97 Starting porblems
1) Check the battery to make sure that it is holding a full charge. Will it start wih a different battery? Leave the spark plugs out overnight. Make sure it has fresh petrol and the spark plugs are clean and correctly set. Choke, no throttle and push the starter. If it doesnt start pour a small amount of engine oil into each cylinder through the spark plug hole. Dry and refit the spark plugs and try to start it again. 2) Check the compression on the cylinders. If it still doesnt start. 3) Check, clean and adjust the carb and choke. See if there are any splits in the carb rubber inlet mounting (a common fault).

Rear Paddock Stand
Those are fine providing they go under the bike when the bike is on the floor. My experience is that you need to lift the bike onto them before you use the lift. All about ground clearance.

Rear Paddock Stand
I wouldn't use cup fittings. The bike can slide along and off them. My preferred option would be to use an Abba stand and a universal swingarm removal kit - but it is a lot of cash. Another alternative is to look for a lift like this LINKY I got mine from evilbay from a local guy for about £20.

If you can get bobbins on it, I can't see why not.

Worst drivers on the road!
I have just changed my car to a nice brand new Qashqai +2. I have already put a "bike aware" sticker in the rear window.
