West of France Route Planning
Hi Mervin, I completely agree with you, in what little experience I have of the French is exactly how you say, kind and friendly..and especially good if you have kids with you. It maybe the customers I had possibly being rude (merc customers had a tendency to be so when stressed ). I was just making sure mr norcot was aware that even if he did have European roadside assistance..they wouldn't be able to help until the vehicle was towed off the motorway (at cost)...which was the surprising fact to some of my more unlearned customers

new guys first question
Morning guys, hope we are all having a nice weekend Just a quick question really, I have bought a dragstar 125 yesterday and have been trolling the internet for a service manual for it...to no avail. Could any of you learned people point me in the right direction as I have the owners manual but need more info as I think I may need to change the piston rings Best regards Lee

West of France Route Planning
Hi norcot...newbie here...I used to work for mercedes breakdown and had many many surprised customers on the phone not realising that on french motorways, if broken down (and I hope you dont) then you have to wait for the local authority to tow you off to the " nearest town" wherre they so happen to have a family garage...if you dont want to go to a garage then they drop you on a side road...high vis I would definitely suggest...but also a little cash carried at all times...for persuasion other then that mate...lots of pics of the gorgeous places your gonna see

whats your top 5 best songs ever?
I definitely agree with you Mike, but I was bought up in a family with eclectic tastes in music, anything from motown to hard rock to classical. My kids have to suffer my blaring of music (although my eldest daughter takes after me and has a good rocking out) so I in turn have to suffer there "tutt". The only limitations I have is...no one direction...unless theyre being shot that is

Hello to all
Good afternoon guys and gals, Just thought I would introduce myself, Im Lee and have recently (as in today) bought a Dragstar 125...needs a little fixing up to get her back to tip top condition so will no doubt be annoying everyone on here with the most random questions. Any who, speak to you soon Lee
