Re: You’re Banned

This is the first time I've been able to read a post for about a week. I keep getting the "banned" message. It's VERY irritating.

Chrome plating

I'm doing up an old Suzuki, and I need a few bits chrome plating, and a few bits zinc (?) plating. I'm having trouble finding places to do this, in Devon.
Can anyone recommend somewhere, or at least have any suggestions they might have heard of, from mates, etc ?

Thanks in advance

Bike restoration recommendations

I'm restoring an old Suzuki, and I need someone to bead blast and paint the frame and petrol tank. There may also be a very small bit of welding required. Does anyone have any recommendations for quality workmanship in the Exeter/Devon area ?

Thanks in advance.

Re: Bike Stolen

Police are not doing much (anything). Insurance are being totally useless so far. Their week-end staff know nothing and can prove it, we have to speak to their mon-fri staff. I'm not expecting to see it again.
BTW, I try always to choose a hotel away from housing, and out of the way, and lock the ...

Re: Bike Stolen

I've managed to get home now with all my luggage, well apart from the stuff that wasn't in the "frunk", that's gone forever. £450 ! But at least I'm home.

Bike Stolen

Well, I'm f****d. Stopped for the night at the Holiday Inn Express, Oulton, near Leeds and woke up this morning to find my bike had gone. Stolen.
It's a Honda NC750DCT in black. A 2025 model. A month old.
I now have to get home somehow :-(
Please keep your eyes open for WN25 ZRG.
Thanks.
