Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?
Snetterton yesterday! My first time there- challenging, but fun. Shared a garage with some good guys. Had a cracking day - despite a 2hr break when a Ducati decided to sick up it's motor oil after...

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?
I didn't ask for the history, but it became apparent in conversation that they had details on this shock.

Although at the same time, there's a minor gripe in that it wasn't particularly cheap. With a new spring fit (they...

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?
I just bought a Shido (not used it yet). I saw/considered the Bosch but wasn't sure it was LiFePo4 so gave it a miss. The Shido was cheap (£75) at sportsbikeshop:

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?
Took an roughly 5-6yr old tap back to Screwfix due to a problem with the handle. No receipt, but the managed to exchange me for a new tap. That was great, but the real smile-maker was that as it's...

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?

I'm finding this really amusing this morning. I think it's the look on his face as he lands it (also maybe because he looks a bit like Danny McBride).

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?
SOTD from Sunday, but only getting around to posting it now. On Sunday afternoon I did the observed ride part of Bikesafe (provided locally by Cambs police). I was weirdly nervous about it, but it...

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?
I've ordered the black "Pro" (small bumps) Eazi-Grips this morning. Not exactly scientific, but I dragged them each across my leathers with a little pressure and the Pro seemed to grip the best.

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?
