Idle Banter For non SV and non bike related chat (and the odd bit of humour - but if any post isn't suitable it'll get deleted real quick).
There's also a "U" rating so please respect this. Newbies can also say "hello" here too.

I used to run no baffles, put the top ones in (the blue flame ones have dual ports) and now they are stuck, so until I can really be bothered im running top baffles. Thing is with the baffles in I think its still louder than the Sv lol.

How many points does the keyboard brutality I displayed get me? Words couldnt express how instantly annoyed I found I'd gotten, his rear quater panel bares the brunt of my frustration. Not something I'm proud of doing but charges for getting caught doing that are far less than that of GBH.

Not meaning to sound patronizing but try to read the road better. Most car-bike bike-car accidents are avoidable. Try to look for little signs like head movement (as indicators aren't always used) lane drifting etc. Also try to get eye contact with drivers when approaching junctions and watch for wheel rotation. If the wheels turning then it could spell trouble. On the commute i like to wear bright clothing. Try to make yourself more visable to drivers. If yours is an older SV switch the lights on.
