Re: Plot lost?

I think I've seen the same (or similar) thing in the area, with a Ducati Monster pulling the sidecar?

Re: Gwyrne Fawr closed

As It's within sight of my parents house, have ridden it many times. A few years ago the National Parks (I believe) used a helicopter to take hundreds of dumpy bags of stone up there, and have made it into a serious of small steps all the way to the top to make it more suitable for walkers - so doub...

Re: 3 nighter S to N Wales and back

Thanks for those cracking and inspiring photos.
No exotic locations or fancy bike and kit, just a bit of 'get on and do it' instead

Nice to see someone actually having an adventure on an an adventure bike too....... :D

I did use the spark plug once by mistake and me being a bloke I said how’s that

Of course she said Champion 😇

:lol: :lol:
Maybe try sticking the plug cap back on, and kicking it over for maximum effect?

Re: Honda CRF250L 2019 Clutch Slipping after 750miles

A friends CRF clutch did the same, so changed mine for a heavy duty kit bought from 'CRF's Only' I think this was a more expensive route, but has worked a treat The standard tyres, handlebars, rear light assembly, rear shock, fork springs, front sprocket, exhaust and even fuel tank soon joined the c...

The person I spoke to at Bennets (while cancelling) said they all do the lower new business quote then shoving it up the following year thing was because of the 10% that don't check. Guess...
