Since joining this community, I've learnt so much about: HID Vs Xenon, Curvy Vs Pointy, The right tyres, which Crash Bungs to get, & so much more. Hell, I've even learnt that there's a drain hole for the water that collects at the spark plug recess (or did I dream that?) :smt017.
You see, I'm fairly new to this 2 wheeled phenomenon, having only got through my Direct access at the beginning of this year.
I'm sure many of you remember how much there was to learn when you first started with bikes, & are probably still learning stuff now.
Anyway, I just wanted to say thanks for all the advice, opinions & reviews.
Proud to be an Orger. ;)

I have learned loads on here too, but most of all I have learned that the Org is an always evolving place of fun and knowledge. It is the people here who make it special, glad you joined the best club.

It's a great place. I too knew nothing about bikes and biking when I joined. I know little now, but am confident with what I do know. And the orgers I have met have been great.

Apart from all the great help & advice, I'm looking forward to meeting some of you - maybe on a rideout somewhere, or the camera change over.

Mate, take it apart, all of it, the whole bike, then re-assemble, Its all idiot proof, so simple you'll feel daft, that's how we all learn!

Is that the way to get parts left over after assembly. :confused:
They can then be used for the next bike.

Hi skopak. I see you are in horncastle. I was at Cadwell this weekend and stayed in Horncastle at an orgers place. PhilSV. A top bloke, real nice guy, who knows his way around SV's.

If you meet him, do not try to keep up drinking with him though.

I was with Phil & Martin at Cadwell. We were helping Talon out on his ThunderSport race day. I could only make it on Sunday due to work commitments, but it was a great day with some genuine guys, & I learnt loads too. Roll on the next meeting.
