Re: Chain and sprockets upgrade suggestions
And in an entirely unconnected manner, you've just explained to me why my unfaired SV fuel usage is a bit disappointing to me. I did wonder why I was getting iro 10% fewer miles out of a tank... |

Re: BLD Birmingham
If the fault of the accident was the other driver, why on earth did you not call their insurer first - they are, ultimately, the party who pays. Going via BLD is only putting cost and delay between... |

Re: BLD Birmingham
I can only presume you were not at fault, and that you are probably on a hire bike at at least £80 per day, and probably more. You might not realise you're paying, you're probably on a "credit hire"... |

Re: 2001 Curvy Naked.

Re: Watch out for idiots!
I'm reasonably sorted for knowledge on the insurance front - 13 years in PI department ad Direct Line and 3.5 at Sabre insurance. But I think the MIB will only accept an untraced application if... |

Re: Watch out for idiots!
The thing is, I've long believed that good observation, and a defensive attitude go a long way to being safe. You can be criticised even when not at fault. You get hit at a T junction, and didn't... |

Re: SV650 brake improvements?
My bike is a 51 plate. Every winter without fail the brakes seize up, if parked for more than a couple of weeks. Last service, they told me the brakes needed rebuilding, and I agreed. One... |

Re: If helmets weren't compulsory, would YOU wear one?
I don't think it's nanny state to insist on a helmet, where if you fall off, you expect 1 - Your immediate trauma care to be provided, free of charge. 2 - Your immediate and long term needs to... |

Re: Used sv650, to buy or not?
The world is full of second hand motorbikes. Besides, if you're unsure of buying it, so will the potential purchasers when you want to upgrade to something a little swankier. |

Re: Sorn/technically insured? Help please!
Can I just also add a word of warning, that you have "laid up cover", but are Sorn'ing the vehicle. Is the vehicle "genuinely" off the road. I don't mean in terms of you using it, but you'd be... |
