I'm not allowed to commute on my bike - It gives an unprofessional image of my company - Discuss

It means i normally only get out at weekends too and I'm fair weather double figure temperature rider
and I have heated grips and use them all year!! Ach who cares at the end of the day If I enjoy it and I ain't hurting or endangering anyone else what harms is there.

Fenjer - you don't have hot grips becuase Syd's battery won't take it! hehehehe

Tell them to f*** off! It's perfectly legitimate transport, tip up in a battered mk2 transit with rust dripping out of every gap and see which they prefer.

Alternator/charging system, not battery [/pedant]

Peg rides to work, has to wear a suit all day, and go out to customers in their homes. Nobody says its unprofessional at all. In fact he has his own parking bay and permit, and the customers think its ace!
I even turned up at the door yesterday on the Vrap, nobody battered an eyelid...even if you could hear it coming half a mile away. Can't upset the new employers one bit with motosickles.

Q tell em to FFFF offfff

Yeah you probably want to check it's charging properly or it will kill the fancy new battery
